Compute the squared absolute value for each element in a single-precision floating-point strided array.
npm install @stdlib/math-strided-special-sabs2We believe in a future in which the web is a preferred environment for numerical computation. To help realize this future, we've built stdlib. stdlib is a standard library, with an emphasis on numerical and scientific computation, written in JavaScript (and C) for execution in browsers and in Node.js. The library is fully decomposable, being architected in such a way that you can swap out and mix and match APIs and functionality to cater to your exact preferences and use cases. When you use stdlib, you can be absolutely certain that you are using the most thorough, rigorous, well-written, studied, documented, tested, measured, and high-quality code out there. To join us in bringing numerical computing to the web, get started by checking us out on GitHub, and please consider financially supporting stdlib. We greatly appreciate your continued support!

> Compute the [squared absolute value][@stdlib/math/base/special/abs2f] for each element in a single-precision floating-point strided array.
``bash`
npm install @stdlib/math-strided-special-sabs2
`javascript`
var sabs2 = require( '@stdlib/math-strided-special-sabs2' );
#### sabs2( N, x, strideX, y, strideY )
Computes the [squared absolute value][@stdlib/math/base/special/abs2f] for each element in a single-precision floating-point strided array x and assigns the results to elements in a single-precision floating-point strided array y.
`javascript
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 ] );
// Compute the squared absolute values in-place:
sabs2( x.length, x, 1, x, 1 );
// x =>
`
The function accepts the following arguments:
- N: number of indexed elements.
- x: input [Float32Array][@stdlib/array/float32].x
- strideX: index increment for .Float32Array
- y: output [][@stdlib/array/float32].y
- strideY: index increment for .
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 to index the first N elements of y in reverse order,
`javascript
var Float32Array = require( '@stdlib/array-float32' );
var floor = require( '@stdlib/math-base-special-floor' );
var x = new Float32Array( [ -1.0, -2.0, -3.0, -4.0, -5.0, -6.0 ] );
var y = new Float32Array( [ 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0 ] );
var N = floor( x.length / 2 );
sabs2( N, x, 2, y, -1 );
// y =>
`
Note that indexing is relative to the first index. To introduce an offset, use [typed array][@stdlib/array/float32] views.
`javascript
var Float32Array = require( '@stdlib/array-float32' );
var floor = require( '@stdlib/math-base-special-floor' );
// Initial arrays...
var x0 = new Float32Array( [ -1.0, -2.0, -3.0, -4.0, -5.0, -6.0 ] );
var y0 = new Float32Array( [ 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0 ] );
// Create offset views...
var x1 = new Float32Array( x0.buffer, x0.BYTES_PER_ELEMENT*1 ); // start at 2nd element
var y1 = new Float32Array( y0.buffer, y0.BYTES_PER_ELEMENT*3 ); // start at 4th element
var N = floor( x0.length / 2 );
sabs2( N, x1, -2, y1, 1 );
// y0 =>
`
#### sabs2.ndarray( N, x, strideX, offsetX, y, strideY, offsetY )
Computes the [squared absolute value][@stdlib/math/base/special/abs2f] for each element in a single-precision floating-point strided array x and assigns the results to elements in a single-precision floating-point strided array y using alternative indexing semantics.
`javascript
var Float32Array = require( '@stdlib/array-float32' );
var x = new Float32Array( [ -1.0, -2.0, -3.0, -4.0, -5.0 ] );
var y = new Float32Array( [ 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0 ] );
sabs2.ndarray( x.length, x, 1, 0, y, 1, 0 );
// y =>
`
The function accepts the following additional arguments:
- offsetX: starting index for x.y
- offsetY: starting index for .
While [typed array][@stdlib/array/float32] 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,
`javascript
var Float32Array = require( '@stdlib/array-float32' );
var floor = require( '@stdlib/math-base-special-floor' );
var x = new Float32Array( [ -1.0, -2.0, -3.0, -4.0, -5.0, -6.0 ] );
var y = new Float32Array( [ 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0 ] );
var N = floor( x.length / 2 );
sabs2.ndarray( N, x, 2, 1, y, -1, y.length-1 );
// y =>
`
`javascript
var round = require( '@stdlib/math-base-special-round' );
var randu = require( '@stdlib/random-base-randu' );
var Float32Array = require( '@stdlib/array-float32' );
var sabs2 = require( '@stdlib/math-strided-special-sabs2' );
var x = new Float32Array( 10 );
var y = new Float32Array( 10 );
var i;
for ( i = 0; i < x.length; i++ ) {
x[ i ] = round( (randu()*200.0) - 100.0 );
}
console.log( x );
console.log( y );
sabs2.ndarray( x.length, x, 1, 0, y, -1, y.length-1 );
console.log( y );
