We have now successfully added guidelines for importing and using algorithms in this repository, inside other algorithms. This has been done to reduce code repetition and uphold code quality. Some functions do implement their own versions of data structures and helper functions, as previously, algorithms were supposed to be completely self contained. This issue initiates a search and fix so that a

1. The rf204_extrangefit.py should be translated also to C++
2. The rf204b_extendedLikelihood_rangedFit.C tutorial should also be translated to C++

IEEE 754 recommends (but does not require) a compound function, which is in the process of being standardized for C and C++; we should expose it in swift-numerics. The simplest, most literal translation of the operation into Swift would be:

extension RealFunctions {
  /// (1+x)ⁿ
  /// 
  /// Returns NaN if x < -1.
  static func compound(_ x: Self, _ n: Int) -> Self {
    // not

What is the feature or improvement you would like to see?

The installation part in the documentation should be extended with a listing of the most common CMake options.

Use cases for the feature

E.g., turning off IGRAPH_WARNINGS_AS_ERRORS is particularly useful for downstream projects that compile igraph as part of their toolchain if the toolchain itself throws warnings that we
