negative(_:result:)

Calculates the negative value of each element in the supplied single-precision vector.

Declaration

static func negative<U, V>(_ vector: U, result: inout V) where U : AccelerateBuffer, V : AccelerateMutableBuffer, U.Element == Float, V.Element == Float

Parameters

  • vector:

    The source vector.

  • result:

    On output, the negative values of the elements in the source vector.

Discussion

For example, the following code calculates the negative values of the elements of an array:

    let values: [Float] = [-1, 2, -3, 4, -5, 6, -7, 8]
    
    let negativeValues = [Float](unsafeUninitializedCapacity: values.count) {
        buffer, initializedCount in
        
        vDSP.negative(values, result: &buffer)
        
        initializedCount = values.count
    }
    
    // Prints "[1.0, -2.0, 3.0, -4.0, 5.0, -6.0, 7.0, -8.0]".
    print(negativeValues)
