@stdlib/blas-base-sswap

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!

sswap

Interchange two single-precision floating-point vectors.

Installation

npm install @stdlib/blas-base-sswap

Usage

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

sswap( N, x, strideX, y, strideY )

Interchanges vectors x and y.

var Float32Array = require( '@stdlib/array-float32' );

var x = new Float32Array( [ 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, 5.0 ] );
var y = new Float32Array( [ 6.0, 7.0, 8.0, 9.0, 10.0 ] );

sswap( x.length, x, 1, y, 1 );
// x => <Float32Array>[ 6.0, 7.0, 8.0, 9.0, 10.0 ]
// y => <Float32Array>[ 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, 5.0 ]

The function has the following parameters:

• N: number of indexed elements.
• x: first input Float32Array.
• strideX: index increment for x.
• y: second input Float32Array.
• strideY: index increment for y.

The N and stride parameters determine how values from the strided arrays are accessed at runtime. For example, to swap in reverse order every other value in x with the first N elements of y,

var Float32Array = require( '@stdlib/array-float32' );

var x = new Float32Array( [ 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, 5.0, 6.0 ] );
var y = new Float32Array( [ 7.0, 8.0, 9.0, 10.0, 11.0, 12.0 ] );

sswap( 3, x, -2, y, 1 );
// x => <Float32Array>[ 9.0, 2.0, 8.0, 4.0, 7.0, 6.0 ]
// y => <Float32Array>[ 5.0, 3.0, 1.0, 10.0, 11.0, 12.0 ]

Note that indexing is relative to the first index. To introduce an offset, use typed array views.

var Float32Array = require( '@stdlib/array-float32' );

// Initial arrays...
var x0 = new Float32Array( [ 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, 5.0, 6.0 ] );
var y0 = new Float32Array( [ 7.0, 8.0, 9.0, 10.0, 11.0, 12.0 ] );

// Create offset views...
var x1 = new Float32Array( x0.buffer, x0.BYTES_PER_ELEMENT*1 ); // start at 2nd element
var y1 = new Float32Array( y0.buffer, y0.BYTES_PER_ELEMENT*3 ); // start at 4th element

// Swap in reverse order every other value from `x1` with `y1`...
sswap( 3, x1, -2, y1, 1 );
// x0 => <Float32Array>[ 1.0, 12.0, 3.0, 11.0, 5.0, 10.0 ]
// y0 => <Float32Array>[ 7.0, 8.0, 9.0, 6.0, 4.0, 2.0 ]

sswap.ndarray( N, x, strideX, offsetX, y, strideY, offsetY )

Interchanges vectors x and y using alternative indexing semantics.

var Float32Array = require( '@stdlib/array-float32' );

var x = new Float32Array( [ 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, 5.0 ] );
var y = new Float32Array( [ 6.0, 7.0, 8.0, 9.0, 10.0 ] );

sswap.ndarray( x.length, x, 1, 0, y, 1, 0 );
// x => <Float32Array>[ 6.0, 7.0, 8.0, 9.0, 10.0 ]
// y => <Float32Array>[ 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, 5.0 ]

The function has the following additional parameters:

• offsetX: starting index for x.
• offsetY: starting index for y.

While typed array views mandate a view offset based on the underlying buffer, the offset parameters support indexing semantics based on starting indices. For example, to swap every other value in x starting from the second value with the last N elements in y where x[i] = y[n], x[i+2] = y[n-1],...,

var Float32Array = require( '@stdlib/array-float32' );

var x = new Float32Array( [ 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, 5.0, 6.0 ] );
var y = new Float32Array( [ 7.0, 8.0, 9.0, 10.0, 11.0, 12.0 ] );

sswap.ndarray( 3, x, 2, 1, y, -1, y.length-1 );
// x => <Float32Array>[ 1.0, 12.0, 3.0, 11.0, 5.0, 10.0 ]
// y => <Float32Array>[ 7.0, 8.0, 9.0, 6.0, 4.0, 2.0 ]

Notes

• If N <= 0, both functions leave x and y unchanged.
• sswap() corresponds to the BLAS level 1 function sswap.

Examples

var discreteUniform = require( '@stdlib/random-array-discrete-uniform' );
var sswap = require( '@stdlib/blas-base-sswap' );

var opts = {
    'dtype': 'float32'
};
var x = discreteUniform( 10, 0, 500, opts );
console.log( x );

var y = discreteUniform( x.length, 0, 255, opts );
console.log( y );

// Swap elements in `x` and `y` starting from the end of `y`:
sswap( x.length, x, 1, y, -1 );
console.log( x );
console.log( y );
