Parameters

pSrc

Pointer to the source vector.

pDst

Pointer to the destination vector.

len

Number of elements in the vectors.

Description

This function computes square root of each element of pSrc and stores the result in the corresponding element of pDst.

For single precision data:

function flavors ippsSqrt_32f_A11and ippsSqrt_32cf_A11 guarantee 11 correctly rounded bits of significand, or at least 3 exact decimal digits;

function flavors ippsSqrt_32f_A21 and ippsSqrt_32fc_A21 guarantee 21 correctly rounded bits of significand, or 4 ulps, or about 6 exact decimal digits;

function flavors ippsSqrt_32f_A24 and ippsSqrt_32fc_A24 guarantee 24 correctly rounded bits of significand, including the implied bit, with the maximum guaranteed error within 1 ulp.

For double precision data:

function flavors ippsSqrt_64f_A26 and ippsSqrt_64fc_A26 guarantee 26 correctly rounded bits of significand, or 6.7E+7 ulps, or approximately 8 exact decimal digits;

function flavors ippsSqrt_64f_A50 and ippsSqrt_64fc_A50 guarantee 50 correctly rounded bits of significand, or 4 ulps, or approximately 15 exact decimal digits;

function flavors ippsSqrt_64f_A53 and ippsSqrt_64fc_A53 guarantee 53 correctly rounded bits of significand, including the implied bit, with the maximum guaranteed error within 1 ulp.

The computation is performed as follows:

pDst[n] = (pSrc[n])1/2, 0 ≤ n < len.

Return Values

ippStsNoErr

Indicates no error.

ippStsNullPtrErr

Indicates an error when pSrc or pDst pointer is NULL.

ippStsSizeErr

Indicates an error when len is less than or equal to 0.

IppStsDomain

In real functions, indicates a warning that the argument is out of the function domain, that is, at least one of the elements of pSrc is less than 0.

Example

The example below shows how to use the function ippsSqrt.

IppStatus ippsSqrt_32f_A21_sample(void) {
	const Ipp32f x[4] = {5850.093, 4798.730, 3502.915, 8959.624};
	Ipp32f y[4];
	IppStatus st = ippsSqrt_32f_A21( x, y, 4 );
	
	printf(" ippsSqrt_32f_A21:\n");
	printf(" x = %.3f %.3f %.3f %.3f \n", x[0], x[1], x[2], x[3]);
	printf(" y = %.3f %.3f %.3f %.3f \n", y[0], y[1], y[2], y[3]);
	return st;
}

Output:

 
ippsSqrt_32f_A21:
x = 5850.093 4798.730 3502.915 8959.624
y = 76.486 69.273 59.185 94.655
