sfill
Fill a single-precision floating-point strided array with a specified scalar constant.
Usage
var sfill = require( '@stdlib/blas/ext/base/sfill' );
sfill( N, alpha, x, strideX )
Fills a single-precision floating-point strided array x
with a specified scalar constant alpha
.
var Float32Array = require( '@stdlib/array/float32' );
var x = new Float32Array( [ -2.0, 1.0, 3.0, -5.0, 4.0, 0.0, -1.0, -3.0 ] );
sfill( x.length, 5.0, x, 1 );
// x => <Float32Array>[ 5.0, 5.0, 5.0, 5.0, 5.0, 5.0, 5.0, 5.0 ]
The function has the following parameters:
- N: number of indexed elements.
- alpha: scalar constant.
- x: input
Float32Array
. - strideX: index increment.
The N
and stride parameters determine which elements in the strided array are accessed at runtime. For example, to fill every other element
var Float32Array = require( '@stdlib/array/float32' );
var x = new Float32Array( [ -2.0, 1.0, 3.0, -5.0, 4.0, 0.0, -1.0, -3.0 ] );
sfill( 4, 5.0, x, 2 );
// x => <Float32Array>[ 5.0, 1.0, 5.0, -5.0, 5.0, 0.0, 5.0, -3.0 ]
Note that indexing is relative to the first index. To introduce an offset, use typed array
views.
var Float32Array = require( '@stdlib/array/float32' );
// Initial array...
var x0 = new Float32Array( [ 1.0, -2.0, 3.0, -4.0, 5.0, -6.0 ] );
// Create an offset view...
var x1 = new Float32Array( x0.buffer, x0.BYTES_PER_ELEMENT*1 ); // start at 2nd element
// Fill every other element...
sfill( 3, 5.0, x1, 2 );
// x0 => <Float32Array>[ 1.0, 5.0, 3.0, 5.0, 5.0, 5.0 ]
sfill.ndarray( N, alpha, x, strideX, offsetX )
Fills a single-precision floating-point strided array x
with a specified scalar constant alpha
using alternative indexing semantics.
var Float32Array = require( '@stdlib/array/float32' );
var x = new Float32Array( [ -2.0, 1.0, 3.0, -5.0, 4.0, 0.0, -1.0, -3.0 ] );
sfill.ndarray( x.length, 5.0, x, 1, 0 );
// x => <Float32Array>[ 5.0, 5.0, 5.0, 5.0, 5.0, 5.0, 5.0, 5.0 ]
The function has the following additional parameters:
- offsetX: starting index.
While typed array
views mandate a view offset based on the underlying buffer, the offset parameter supports indexing semantics based on a starting index. For example, to access only the last three elements of the strided array
var Float32Array = require( '@stdlib/array/float32' );
var x = new Float32Array( [ 1.0, -2.0, 3.0, -4.0, 5.0, -6.0 ] );
sfill.ndarray( 3, 5.0, x, 1, x.length-3 );
// x => <Float32Array>[ 1.0, -2.0, 3.0, 5.0, 5.0, 5.0 ]
Notes
- If
N <= 0
, both functions return the strided array unchanged.
Examples
var discreteUniform = require( '@stdlib/random/array/discrete-uniform' );
var sfill = require( '@stdlib/blas/ext/base/sfill' );
var x = discreteUniform( 10, -100, 100, {
'dtype': 'float32'
});
console.log( x );
sfill( x.length, 5.0, x, 1 );
console.log( x );

int main( void ) {
// Create a strided array:
float x[] = { 1.0f, -2.0f, 3.0f, -4.0f, 5.0f, -6.0f, 7.0f, -8.0f };
// Specify the number of indexed elements:
const int N = 8;

const int strideX = 1;
// Fill the array:
stdlib_strided_sfill( N, 5.0f, x, strideX );
// Print the result:
