vDSP_maxmgvi

Declaration

extern void vDSP_maxmgvi(const float *__A, vDSP_Stride __IA, float *__C, vDSP_Length *__I, vDSP_Length __N);

Parameters

• __A:

  The input vector, A.

• __IA:

  The distance between the elements in the input vector.

• __C:

  The output scalar value, C. If N is zero, the function sets C to 0.

• __I:

  The output scalar value, I. If N is zero, the function sets I to 0.

• __N:

  The number of elements that the function processes.

Discussion

This function calculates the maximum magnitude and its corresponding index of the first N elements of the input vector and writes the results to the output scalar parameters, C and I, respectively.

The following code shows an example of using this function:

    let stride = vDSP_Stride(1)
    
    let a: [Float] = [-1.5, 2.25, 3.6,
                       0.2, -0.1, -4.3]
    let n = vDSP_Length(a.count)
    
    var c: Float = .nan
    var i: vDSP_Length = 0
    
    vDSP_maxmgvi(a,
                 stride,
                 &c,
                 &i,
                 n)
    
    print("max magnitude", c,
          "index", i)   // Prints "max magnitude 4.3 index 5".
