IppStatus ippsExp_16s_ISfs(Ipp16s* pSrcDst, int len, int scaleFactor);

Include Files

ipps.h

Domain Dependencies

Headers: ippcore.h, ippvm.h

Libraries: ippcore.lib, ippvm.lib

Parameters

pSrc

Pointer to the source vector.

pDst

Pointer to the destination vector.

pSrcDst

Pointer to the source and destination vector pSrcDst for the in-place operation.

len

Number of elements in the vector

scaleFactor

Scale factor, refer to Integer Scaling.

Description

This function computes the exponential function of each element of the vector pSrc, and stores the result in pDst.

The computation is performed as follows:

pDst[n] = epSrc[n]

The in-place flavors of ippsExp compute the exponential function of each element of the vector pSrcDst and store the result in pSrcDst.

The computation is performed as follows:

pSrcDst[n] = epSrcDst[n]

When an overflow occurs, the function continues operation with the corresponding result value (see appendix A "Handling of Special Cases" for more information).

When computing the exponent of an integer number, the output result can exceed the data range and become saturated. The scaling retains the output data range but results in precision loss in low-order bits. The function ippsExp_32f64f computes the output result in a higher precision data range.

Application Notes

For the functions ippsExp and ippsLn the result is rounded to the nearest integer after scaling.

Return Values

ippStsNoErr

Indicates no error.

ippStsNullPtrErr

Indicates an error when the pSrc, pDst, or pSrcDst pointer is NULL.

ippStsSizeErr

Indicates an error when len is less than or equal to zero.
