Abstract
In order to simplify the use of the Geometric Algebra Computing technology, we have developed Gaalop GPC [20], a precompiler, which integrates Gaalop into standard programming languages such as C++, OpenCL, and CUDA. Figure 11.1 outlines the concept for the C++ programming language. With Gaalop GPC, we are able to enhance ordinary C++ code with Geometric Algebra code and automatically generate optimized C++ code.
