r"""
This module implements function objects which are then passed to solvers. The
:class:`func` base class defines the interface whereas specialised classes who
inherit from it implement the methods. These classes include :
* :class:`dummy`: A dummy function object which returns 0 for the
:meth:`_eval`, :meth:`_prox` and :meth:`_grad` methods.
* :class:`norm`: Norm operators base class.
* :class:`norm_l1`: L1-norm who implements the :meth:`_eval` and
:meth:`_prox` methods.
* :class:`norm_l2`: L2-norm who implements the :meth:`_eval`, :meth:`_prox`
and :meth:`_grad` methods.
* :class:`proj`: Projection operators base class.
* :class:`proj_b2`: Projection on the L2-ball who implements the
:meth:`_eval` and :meth:`_prox` methods.

def _soft_threshold(z, T, handle_complex=True):

Return the soft thresholded signal.
Parameters
----------
z : array_like
Input signal (real or complex).
T : float or array_like
Threshold on the absolute value of `z`. There could be either a single
threshold for the entire signal `z` or one threshold per dimension.
Useful when you use weighted norms.
handle_complex : bool
Indicate that we should handle the thresholding of complex numbers,
which may be slower. Default is True.
Returns
-------
sz : ndarray
Soft thresholded signal.
Examples
--------

[docs]class func(object):
r"""
This class defines the function object interface.
It is intended to be a base class for standard functions which will
implement the required methods. It can also be instantiated by user code
and dynamically modified for rapid testing. The instanced objects are
meant to be passed to the :func:`pyunlocbox.solvers.solve` solving
function.
Parameters
----------
y : array_like, optional
Measurements. Default is 0.
A : function or ndarray, optional
The forward operator. Default is the identity, :math:`A(x)=x`. If `A`
is an ``ndarray``, it will be converted to the operator form.
At : function or ndarray, optional
The adjoint operator. If `At` is an ``ndarray``, it will be converted
to the operator form. If `A` is an ``ndarray``, default is the
transpose of `A`. If `A` is a function, default is `A`,
:math:`At(x)=A(x)`.
tight : bool, optional
``True`` if `A` is a tight frame, ``False`` otherwise. Default is
``True``.
nu : float, optional
Bound on the norm of the operator `A`, i.e. :math:`\|A(x)\|^2 \leq \nu
\|x\|^2`. Default is 1.
tol : float, optional
The tolerance stopping criterion. The exact definition depends on the
function object, please see the documentation of the considered
function. Default is 1e-3.
maxit : int, optional
The maximum number of iterations. Default is 200.

L2-ball function object.
This function is the indicator function :math:`i_S(z)` of the set S which
is zero if `z` is in the set and infinite otherwise. The set S is defined
by :math:`\left\{z \in \mathbb{R}^N \mid \|A(z)-y\|_2 \leq \epsilon
\right\}`.
See generic attributes descriptions of the
:class:`pyunlocbox.functions.proj` base class. Note that the constructor
takes keyword-only parameters.
Notes
-----
* The `tol` parameter is defined as the tolerance for the projection on the
L2-ball. The algorithm stops if :math:`\frac{\epsilon}{1-tol} \leq
\|y-A(z)\|_2 \leq \frac{\epsilon}{1+tol}`.
* The evaluation of this function is zero.
* The L2-ball proximal operator evaluated at `x` is given by
:math:`\operatorname{arg\,min}\limits_z \frac{1}{2} \|x-z\|_2^2 + i_S(z)`
which has an identical solution as
:math:`\operatorname{arg\,min}\limits_z \|x-z\|_2^2` such that
:math:`\|A(z)-y\|_2 \leq \epsilon`. It is thus a projection of the vector
`x` onto an L2-ball of diameter `epsilon`.
