About stdlib...

We believe in a future in which the web is a preferred environment for numerical computation. To help realize this future, we've built stdlib. stdlib is a standard library, with an emphasis on numerical and scientific computation, written in JavaScript (and C) for execution in browsers and in Node.js.

The library is fully decomposable, being architected in such a way that you can swap out and mix and match APIs and functionality to cater to your exact preferences and use cases.

When you use stdlib, you can be absolutely certain that you are using the most thorough, rigorous, well-written, studied, documented, tested, measured, and high-quality code out there.

To join us in bringing numerical computing to the web, get started by checking us out on GitHub, and please consider financially supporting stdlib. We greatly appreciate your continued support!

Matrix Orientations

BLAS matrix orientations.

Installation

npm install @stdlib/blas-base-matrix-orientations

Usage

var orientations = require( '@stdlib/blas-base-matrix-orientations' );

orientations()

Returns a list of matrix orientations.

var out = orientations();
// e.g., returns [ 'rows', 'columns' ]

The output array contains the following types:

• rows: data is stored along matrix rows.
• columns: data is stored along matrix columns.

Examples

var contains = require( '@stdlib/array-base-assert-contains' ).factory;
var orientations = require( '@stdlib/blas-base-matrix-orientations' );

var isMatrixOrientation = contains( orientations() );

var bool = isMatrixOrientation( 'rows' );
// returns true

bool = isMatrixOrientation( 'columns' );
// returns true

bool = isMatrixOrientation( 'beep' );
// returns false

C APIs

Usage

#include "stdlib/blas/base/matrix_orientations.h"

STDLIB_BLAS_MATRIX_ORIENTATION

An enumeration of matrix orientations with the following fields:

• STDLIB_BLAS_ROW_MATRIX: data is stored along matrix rows.
• STDLIB_BLAS_COLUMN_MATRIX: data is stored along matrix columns.

#include "stdlib/blas/base/matrix_orientations.h"

const enum STDLIB_BLAS_MATRIX_ORIENTATION v = STDLIB_BLAS_ROW_MATRIX;

Notes

• Enumeration constants should be considered opaque values, and one should not rely on specific integer values.

Notice

This package is part of stdlib, a standard library for JavaScript and Node.js, with an emphasis on numerical and scientific computing. The library provides a collection of robust, high performance libraries for mathematics, statistics, streams, utilities, and more.
