9.2 vsip_vmaxval_p - Find the Maximum Value in a Vector View

vsip_scalar_f vsip_vmaxval_f(const vsip_vview_f* a, vsip_index* j);

Description

This function finds the maximum value in the vector view a and returns it. The index of the maximum value is stored in the variable pointed to by j.

Parameters

• const vsip_vview_p* a: Pointer to the vector view.

• vsip_index* j: Pointer to a variable where the index of the maximum value will be stored.

Return Value

• The maximum value in the vector view.

Example

vsip_vview_f *vector_view; 
vsip_index index; 
vsip_scalar_f max_value; 
 
// Assuming vector_view has been properly initialized 
max_value = vsip_vmaxval_f(vector_view, &index);
