gslice::gslice
A utility class to valarray that is used to define multi-dimensional slices of a valarray.
gslice( );
gslice(
size_t _StartIndex,
const valarray<size_t>& _LenArray,
const valarray<size_t>& _IncArray
);
Parameters
_StartIndex
The valarray index of the first element in the subset._LenArray
An array specifying the number of elements in each slice._IncArray
An array specifying the stride in each slice.
Return Value
The default constructor stores zero for the starting index, and zero-length vectors for the length and stride vectors. The second constructor stores _StartIndex for the starting index, _LenArray for the length array, and _IncArray for the stride array.
Remarks
gslice defines a subset of a valarray that consists of multiple slices of the valarray that each start at the same specified element. The ability to use arrays to define multiple slices is the only difference between gslice and slice::slice. The first slice has a first element with an index of _StartIndex, a number of elements specified by the first element of _LenArray, and a stride given by the first element of _IncArray. The next set of orthogonal slices has first elements given by the first slice. The second element of _LenArray specifies the number of elements. The stride is given by the second element of _IncArray. A third dimension of slices would take the elements of the two-dimensional array as the starting elements and proceed analogously
Example
// gslice_ctor.cpp
// compile with: /EHsc
#include <valarray>
#include <iostream>
int main( )
{
using namespace std;
int i;
valarray<int> va ( 20 ), vaResult;
for ( i = 0 ; i < 20 ; i+=1 )
va [ i ] = i;
cout << "The operand valarray va is:" << endl << "(";
for ( i = 0 ; i < 20 ; i++ )
cout << " " << va [ i ];
cout << " )" << endl;
valarray<size_t> Len ( 2 ), Stride ( 2 );
Len [0] = 4;
Len [1] = 4;
Stride [0] = 7;
Stride [1] = 4;
gslice vaGSlice ( 0, Len, Stride );
vaResult = va [ vaGSlice ];
cout << "The valarray for vaGSlice is vaResult:" << endl
<< "va[vaGSlice] = (";
for ( i = 0 ; i < 8 ; i++ )
cout << " " << vaResult [ i ];
cout << ")" << endl;
}
The operand valarray va is:
( 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 )
The valarray for vaGSlice is vaResult:
va[vaGSlice] = ( 0 4 8 12 7 11 15 19)
