| Methods | Description |
|---|---|
| physical_base(const long long int a) | Constructor to create a physical instance from a long long int a. |
| physical_base(const physical_base &a) | Copy constructor. |
| physical_base
&operator=(const physical_base a) |
Assignment operator. |
| static int ld_size() | returns log2 of the size (in byte) of a physical instance. Note, this function always returns the same value (usually 3, i.e. 23=8 bytes). |
| static bool scalar() | Always returns true because physical types are scalar. |
| static void cleanup() | Actually does nothing. |
Note, no further operators are defined in physical_base.
