Data Types

List of typed array real-valued floating-point data types.

Usage

var dtypes = require( '@stdlib/array/typed-real-float-dtypes' );

dtypes()

Returns a list of typed array real-valued floating-point data types.

var out = dtypes();
// e.g., returns [ 'float32', 'float64' ]

The output array contains the following data types:

float32: single-precision floating-point numbers.
float64: double-precision floating-point numbers.

Examples

var indexOf = require( '@stdlib/utils/index-of' );
var dtypes = require( '@stdlib/array/typed-real-float-dtypes' );

var DTYPES = dtypes();

function isdtype( str ) {
    if ( indexOf( DTYPES, str ) === -1 ) {
        return false;
    }
    return true;
}

var bool = isdtype( 'float64' );
// returns true

bool = isdtype( 'float32' );
// returns true

bool = isdtype( 'complex128' );
// returns false

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