@stdlib/math-base-special-invf v0.2.1
invf
Compute the multiplicative inverse of a single-precision floating-point number.
The multiplicative inverse (or reciprocal) is defined as
Installation
npm install @stdlib/math-base-special-invf
Usage
var invf = require( '@stdlib/math-base-special-invf' );
invf( x )
Computes the multiplicative inverse of a single-precision floating-point number x
.
var v = invf( -1.0 );
// returns -1.0
v = invf( 2.0 );
// returns 0.5
v = invf( 0.0 );
// returns Infinity
v = invf( -0.0 );
// returns -Infinity
v = invf( NaN );
// returns NaN
Examples
var randu = require( '@stdlib/random-base-randu' );
var round = require( '@stdlib/math-base-special-round' );
var invf = require( '@stdlib/math-base-special-invf' );
var x;
var i;
for ( i = 0; i < 100; i++ ) {
x = round( randu()*100.0 ) - 50.0;
console.log( 'invf(%d) = %d', x, invf( x ) );
}
C APIs
Usage
#include "stdlib/math/base/special/invf.h"
stdlib_base_invf( x )
Computes the multiplicative inverse of a single-precision floating-point number.
float y = stdlib_base_invf( 2.0f );
// returns 0.5f
The function accepts the following arguments:
- x:
[in] float
input value.
float stdlib_base_inv( const float x );
Examples
#include "stdlib/math/base/special/invf.h"
#include <stdio.h>
int main( void ) {
const float x[] = { 3.0f, 4.0f, 5.0f, 12.0f };
float y;
int i;
for ( i = 0; i < 4; i++ ) {
y = stdlib_base_invf( x[ i ] );
printf( "inv(%f) = %f\n", x[ i ], y );
}
}
