11.4 vssub - Vector scalar subtraction x -α

#include <mvec.h>

void vssub (int n, double *y, int incy, const double *x, int incx, double a);
void vssubf(int n, float *y, int incy, const float *x, int incx, float a);

Given an input vector x  and a scalar constant α and a result vector y  , this function computes:

y= x- α
