About stdlib...

We 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!

dasum

Compute the sum of absolute values (L1 norm).

The L1 norm is defined as

$$\|\mathbf{x}\|_1 = \sum_{i=0}^{n-1} \vert x_i \vert$$

Installation

npm install @stdlib/blas-base-dasum

Alternatively,

To load the package in a website via a script tag without installation and bundlers, use the ES Module available on the esm branch (see README).
If you are using Deno, visit the deno branch (see README for usage intructions).
For use in Observable, or in browser/node environments, use the Universal Module Definition (UMD) build available on the umd branch (see README).

The branches.md file summarizes the available branches and displays a diagram illustrating their relationships.

To view installation and usage instructions specific to each branch build, be sure to explicitly navigate to the respective README files on each branch, as linked to above.

Usage

var dasum = require( '@stdlib/blas-base-dasum' );

dasum( N, x, stride )

Computes the sum of absolute values.

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

var x = new Float64Array( [ -2.0, 1.0, 3.0, -5.0, 4.0, 0.0, -1.0, -3.0 ] );

var sum = dasum( x.length, x, 1 );
// returns 19.0

The function has the following parameters:

N: number of indexed elements.
x: input Float64Array.
stride: index increment.

The N and stride parameters determine which elements in x are used to compute the sum. For example, to sum every other value,

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

var x = new Float64Array( [ -2.0, 1.0, 3.0, -5.0, 4.0, 0.0, -1.0, -3.0 ] );

var sum = dasum( 4, x, 2 );
// returns 10.0

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

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

// Initial array...
var x0 = new Float64Array( [ 1.0, -2.0, 3.0, -4.0, 5.0, -6.0 ] );

// Create an offset view...
var x1 = new Float64Array( x0.buffer, x0.BYTES_PER_ELEMENT*1 ); // start at 2nd element

// Sum every other value...
var sum = dasum( 3, x1, 2 );
// returns 12.0

If either N or stride is less than or equal to 0, the function returns 0.

dasum.ndarray( N, x, stride, offset )

Computes the sum of absolute values using alternative indexing semantics.

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

var x = new Float64Array( [ -2.0, 1.0, 3.0, -5.0, 4.0, 0.0, -1.0, -3.0 ] );

var sum = dasum.ndarray( x.length, x, 1, 0 );
// returns 19.0

The function has the following additional parameters:

offset: 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 sum the last three elements,

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

var x = new Float64Array( [ 1.0, -2.0, 3.0, -4.0, 5.0, -6.0 ] );

var sum = dasum.ndarray( 3, x, 1, x.length-3 );
// returns 15.0

// Using a negative stride to sum from the last element:
sum = dasum.ndarray( 3, x, -1, x.length-1 );
// returns 15.0

Notes

If N <= 0, the sum is 0.
dasum() corresponds to the BLAS level 1 function dasum.

Examples

var discreteUniform = require( '@stdlib/random-array-discrete-uniform' );
var dasum = require( '@stdlib/blas-base-dasum' );

var opts = {
    'dtype': 'float64'
};
var x = discreteUniform( 10, -100, 100, opts );
console.log( x );

var out = dasum( x.length, x, 1 );
console.log( out );

C APIs

Usage

#include "stdlib/blas/base/dasum.h"

c_dasum( N, *X, stride )

Computes the sum of absolute values.

const double x[] = { 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0 };

double v = c_dasum( 4, x, 1 );
// returns 10.0

The function accepts the following arguments:

N: [in] CBLAS_INT number of indexed elements.
X: [in] double* input array.
stride: [in] CBLAS_INT index increment for X.

double c_dasum( const CBLAS_INT N, const double *X, const CBLAS_INT stride );

Examples

#include "stdlib/blas/base/dasum.h"
#include <stdio.h>

int main( void ) {
    // Create a strided array:
    const double x[] = { 1.0, -2.0, 3.0, -4.0, 5.0, -6.0, 7.0, -8.0 };

    // Specify the number of elements:
    const int N = 8;

    // Specify a stride:
    const int strideX = 1;

    // Compute the sum of absolute values:
    double sum = c_dasum( N, x, strideX );

    // Print the result:
    printf( "sum: %lf\n", sum );
}
