| template<> struct NormTraits<ArithmeticType> |
--- | --- | ---

Unary traits for the calculation of the norm and squared norm of arithmetic objects.

#include "vigra/numerictraits.hxx"

This traits class is used to determine appropriate result types for the functions norm() and squaredNorm(). These functions are always declared like this (where `ArithmeticType` is a type thats supports a norm):

        NormTraits<ArithmeticType>::NormType        norm(ArithmeticType const & t);
        NormTraits<ArithmeticType>::SquaredNormType squaredNorm(ArithmeticType const & t);

The following members are defined in `NormTraits<ArithmeticType>`:

`typedef ArithmeticType Type;` | the type itself
`typedef ... SquaredNormType;` | result of `squaredNorm(ArithmeticType)`
`typedef ... NormType;` | result of `norm(ArithmeticType)` Usually equal to `SquareRootTraits<SquaredNormType>SquareRootResult`

NormTraits for the built-in types are defined in #include "vigra/numerictraits.hxx"
