Description
This page serves as a table of contents for PDL's module documentation. This page does not list every
single PDL module. It only shows the ones intended for PDL users, while omitting those which are deemed
"for internal use only". If you wish to see a comprehensive list of all documentation, please see the
PDL::Index page.
Foundation
perldl
Learn about the PDL shell.
Functions
PDL::Core

PDL::Basic
Simplified interface to the more general PDL::Primitive.
PDL::Ops
Basic operators (e.g. arithmetic, comparisons, etc.).
PDL::Ufunc
Functions that accumulate along a dimension (e.g. sum, max).
OtherFeatures
PDL::AutoLoader
MATLAB-style function autoloader.
PDL::Slices
Indexing and slices. How to access a subset of an ndarray.
PDL::NiceSlice
Nicer syntax for slices.
Image Processing
PDL::Compression
Compression utilities.
PDL::Image2D
2-dimensional image processing.
PDL::ImageND

Data dumper.
PDL::IO::FastRaw
Fast storage format (outdated).
PDL::IO::FlexRaw
Flexible storage format.
PDL::IO::Misc
Misc IO routines.
PDL::IO::Storable
Support for Perl's Storable module.
ImageFormats
PDL::IO::FITS
PDL support for FITS images.
PDL::IO::Pnm
PDL support for PNM images.
Looking For A Function?
If you want to search for a function name, you should use the PDL shell along with the "help" or
"apropos" command (to do a fuzzy search). For example:
pdl> apropos xval
xlinvals X axis values between endpoints (see xvals).
xlogvals X axis values logarithmicly spaced...
xvals Fills an ndarray with X index values...
yvals Fills an ndarray with Y index values. See the CAVEAT for xvals.
zvals Fills an ndarray with Z index values. See the CAVEAT for xvals.
To learn more about the PDL shell, see perldl.
Miscellaneous
PDL::Primitive
Fundamental operations on ndarrays.
PDL::Bad
Bad value support.
PDL::Reduce
A 'reduce' function for PDL.
PDL::Lite
Minimum PDL module OO loader.
PDL::LiteF
Minimum PDL module function loader.
PDL::Func
Interpolation-related functions.
