N-th Harmonics

this program is design to solve n-th harmonics. it works for number 1-12 from 13-19 it gives me the wrong answer i honestly can figure out where my mistake is, if some one could pin point where it is i would love to know, so that i could fix it myself or if you wish to show me your idea so that i could learn, the fallowing is my code. i dont know have to copy the whole code from my machine so i will send it from copy and paste. also dont take my code make your own if you got an assignment like this



#include <iostream>

i forgot the comment the last one in my class its not required to comment so i dont do it

functions denom() and numer() are probably the problem.

Look at demon() ...

Code:

---

void denom(int n, long& den, int data[])
{
  // this is where i am finding the denominator
  int c=1;

  for(int i=0;i<n; i++)
  {
      c=c* data[i];
  }

  den=c;
}

You are calculating the denominator using an int variable c to hold the answer.
It is probably 32 bits, so the calculated value will be too large for n>12.

Same for numer().

Also, you should verify that sizeof(long) = 8

I wrote code to calculate spherical harmonics years ago. The problem I had was rounding error. My guess is that rounding error is your problem as well. I am not going to post my code, because I did not write it as a stand alone function and making it one would not be worth my time. However, I will tell you were I got the algorithm for the code from a paper by Libbrecht entitled Practical considerations for the generation of large-order spherical harmonics

i found out my mistake by my self, i am good with the program now thanks for your help anyways and it wasnt what you though it was i would tell ya if the code was deleted so that no one can take and use it
