Compute the principal square root of each element in a strided array.

The principal square root is defined as

Principal square root

Installation

npm install @stdlib/math-strided-special-sqrt

Usage

var sqrt = require( '@stdlib/math-strided-special-sqrt' );

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

Computes the principal square root of each element in a strided array x and assigns the results to elements in a strided array y.

var Float64Array = require( '@stdlib/array-float64' );

var x = new Float64Array( [ 0.0, 4.0, 9.0, 12.0, 24.0 ] );

// Perform operation in-place:
sqrt( x.length, x, 1, x, 1 );
// x => <Float64Array>[ 0.0, 2.0, 3.0, ~3.464, ~4.899 ]

The function accepts the following arguments:

  • N: number of indexed elements.
  • x: input array-like object.
  • strideX: index increment for x.
  • y: output array-like object.
  • strideY: index increment for y.

The N and stride parameters determine which elements in x and y are accessed at runtime. For example, to index every other value in x and the first N elements of y in reverse order,

var Float64Array = require( '@stdlib/array-float64' );

var x = new Float64Array( [ 0.0, 4.0, 9.0, 12.0, 24.0, 64.0 ] );
var y = new Float64Array( [ 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0 ] );

sqrt( 3, x, 2, y, -1 );
// y => <Float64Array>[ ~4.899, 3.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0 ]

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

var Float64Array = require( '@stdlib/array-float64' );

// Initial arrays...
var x0 = new Float64Array( [ 0.0, 4.0, 9.0, 12.0, 24.0, 64.0 ] );
var y0 = new Float64Array( [ 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0 ] );

// Create offset views...
var x1 = new Float64Array( x0.buffer, x0.BYTES_PER_ELEMENT*1 ); // start at 2nd element
var y1 = new Float64Array( y0.buffer, y0.BYTES_PER_ELEMENT*3 ); // start at 4th element

sqrt( 3, x1, -2, y1, 1 );
// y0 => <Float64Array>[ 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 8.0, ~3.464, 2.0 ]

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

Computes the principal square root of each element in a strided array x and assigns the results to elements in a strided array y using alternative indexing semantics.

var Float64Array = require( '@stdlib/array-float64' );

var x = new Float64Array( [ 0.0, 4.0, 9.0, 12.0, 24.0 ] );
var y = new Float64Array( [ 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0 ] );

sqrt.ndarray( x.length, x, 1, 0, y, 1, 0 );
// y => <Float64Array>[ 0.0, 2.0, 3.0, ~3.464, ~4.899 ]

The function accepts the following additional arguments:

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

While typed array views mandate a view offset based on the underlying buffer, the offsetX and offsetY parameters support indexing semantics based on starting indices. For example, to index every other value in x starting from the second value and to index the last N elements in y,

var Float64Array = require( '@stdlib/array-float64' );

var x = new Float64Array( [ 0.0, 4.0, 9.0, 12.0, 24.0, 64.0 ] );
var y = new Float64Array( [ 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0 ] );

sqrt.ndarray( 3, x, 2, 1, y, -1, y.length-1 );
// y => <Float64Array>[ 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 8.0, ~3.464, 2.0 ]

Examples

var uniform = require( '@stdlib/random-base-uniform' ).factory;
var filledarray = require( '@stdlib/array-filled' );
var dtypes = require( '@stdlib/array-dtypes' );
var gfillBy = require( '@stdlib/blas-ext-base-gfill-by' );
var sqrt = require( '@stdlib/math-strided-special-sqrt' );

var dt;
var x;
var y;
var i;

dt = dtypes();
for ( i = 0; i < dt.length; i++ ) {
    x = filledarray( 0.0, 10, dt[ i ] );
    gfillBy( x.length, x, 1, uniform( 0.0, 100.0 ) );
    console.log( x );

    y = filledarray( 0.0, x.length, 'generic' );
    console.log( y );

    sqrt.ndarray( x.length, x, 1, 0, y, -1, y.length-1 );
    console.log( y );
    console.log( '' );
}
