Dynamically creating functions in C

Question

How can I dynamically create a function in C?

I try to summarize my C problem as follows:

• I have a matrix and I want to be able to use some function

Answer 1

One way of doing would be to write a standard C file with the set of functions you want, compile it via gcc and the load it as a dynamic library to get pointers to the functions.

Ultimately, it probably would be better if you were able to specify your functions without having to define them on-the-fly (like via having a generic template function that takes arguments that define its specific behavior).
