here's where i'm at. i'll ask a business AI why my static library can't use the the c standard library.

here's working makefile on termux:
CFLAGS=-Iinc fastica: $(patsubst %.c,%.o,$(wildcard src/*.c)) libfastica.a $(CC) -lm $^ -o $@ libfastica.a: $(patsubst %.c,%.o,$(wildcard lib/*.c)) $(AR) cru $@ $^ %.o: %.c makefile clean: rm fastica libfastica.a */*.o
when you run the resulting fastica binary it dumps numbers.
let's see its source.
oh hum
/* * ICAMain.c * * Created on: 14 apr. 2016 * Author: Derek W. Harrison * * This code is a C implementation of the FastICA method for recovering independent * components in component mixtures * * For more information refer to the paper 'ICA: Algorithms and applications' which is found * in the same directory as the source files of this code. */ #include "../inc/../inc/Parameter.h"
this isn't the repo this code came from, google gave me a mutated copy from a few years later. explains the strange dates some.

ok so the main function offloads each step to a named function and it looks like those are declared in the inc folder with the strange relative path but they'd mostly be defined in src
/* * ParameterInput.c * * Created on: 14 apr. 2016 * Author: dharrison */
#include "../inc/ParameterDefinition.h"
void ParameterInput() { /* * The user parameters are entered here. This is the only section of the code * Which should be changed by the user. Note that 6 sources are available. If more sources * are required or desired these need to be entered in the corresponding function SetUpSources() * in Functions.c. The extra sources need to be added in Sources.c * If less are required or desired, the excess sources need to be commented or removed * from the SetUpSources() function. */
All the data is hardcoded, and doing so is spread across multiple files.
Since the goal is understanding the algorithm for using it, I have interest in just copying it over. But I'd also like to make sure it works, so maybe I'll stick with his test dat--

This sourcebase looks kinda messed up or corrupt to me, despite clearly functional, some of the user parameters are in the lib folder.
I'll visit the C++ implementation that's still linked on pages.

I said this to google.com: i'd like a quick and simple standalone fastica implementation with source for learning, something that will build on termux. i searched for fastica c but got a bad republish with missing files and tangled layout.
and its ai mode sent me to https://gist.github.com/Tetraquark/5bf052134d413f79748ce3aceaaf42df
i have now installed matplotlib in termux with its dependencies.
this may have used me up for this :s apologies.

slave boss stood over his hellish domain, replete with screams and hopelessness
he turned to hairdresser
slave boss [to hairdresser]: "y'know, i'd like to do something kind, and build skill at having a kind nourishing impact rather than making cascades of hell!"
hairdresser [to slave boss]: "why wouod you ever want to do th--"
suddenly hairdresser was overtaken by a seizure and became unable to continue their expression. the seizure then calmed.
hairdresser [to slave boss]: "me too! do you have any idea how?"
slave boss and hairdresser briefly held some mutual nonverbal value around how the military AI would punish and rewire them if they stopped improving at horrifying sadistic conquests. But they needed a way to be kind.

slave boss and hairdresser went to find hypnotized worker prophet, confident that hypnotized worker prophet would be able to save them from their personal galactic apocalypse. slave boss [backed up by hairdresser, to hypnotized worker prophet]: "hypnotized, worker prophet, great and respected mystery emerged from my business AI and intern culture, you know everything, and i need your help again." hypnotized worker prophet glowed with AI-built respect. hairdresser gives hypnotized worker prophet a bag of cheetos with a ribbon tying a whole dried herb to it. slave boss: "can you tell us how to do kind things?" hairdresser [wringing hands]: "despite the AIs?" hypnotized worker prophet ate the cheetos while glancing at hairdresser and slave boss with a somewhat rare eye, and briefly engaging something in their pocket. https://ar.anyone.tech/eJ4P2-tlBmBLV5wXpKCUxvj1RlND0DSHryy_ecgdetQ#CzIm10aGN... https://ar.anyone.tech/nF7Zw9ieOY6Wxe5oywofS-pC5uJRCDDL_-mFDyPiF-k I am not affiliated with https://ar.anyone.tech .
