Package 'RcppHyperDual'

Title: Rcpp Interface to Hyper-Dual Numbers
Description: Hyper-Dual Numbers permit the exact calculation of second derivatives which is both free of truncation and subtractive cancellation. Hyper-Dual numbers were introduced Jeffrey Fike and Juan Alonson, and this package uses a header-only C++ implementation by Fike and released under the MIT license. Accurate 2nd derivatives computation.
