simdpp::to_uint16

From libsimdpp-docs
template<unsigned N, class E>
uint16<N, _DETAIL_> to_uint16( Vec<N,E> a );

Converts elements within a vector to 16-bit unsigned values.

The implementation behaves as if the following set of overloads is provided:

Vec
int8
uint8
int16
uint16
int32
uint32
int64
uint64
float32
float64

The return type is a vector expression.

The conversion rules are as follows:

  • 8-bit signed integers are sign-extended to 16 bits.
  • 8-bit unsigned integers are zero-extended to 16 bits.
  • 32-bit and wider integers are truncated.
  • floating-point numbers are converted to integer values and truncated.
  • if floating-point value can not be represented in 16-bit unsigned integer, the behavior depends on the instruction set used.

Parameters[edit]

a - vector to convert

Return value[edit]

A vector expression evaluating to vector with values converted to 16-bit unsigned integers.

Equivalent operation[edit]

r0 = uint16_t(a0)
...
rN = uint16_t(aN)
