About stdlib...

We believe in a future in which the web is a preferred environment for numerical computation. To help realize this future, we've built stdlib. stdlib is a standard library, with an emphasis on numerical and scientific computation, written in JavaScript (and C) for execution in browsers and in Node.js.

The library is fully decomposable, being architected in such a way that you can swap out and mix and match APIs and functionality to cater to your exact preferences and use cases.

When you use stdlib, you can be absolutely certain that you are using the most thorough, rigorous, well-written, studied, documented, tested, measured, and high-quality code out there.

To join us in bringing numerical computing to the web, get started by checking us out on GitHub, and please consider financially supporting stdlib. We greatly appreciate your continued support!

vararr=Float16Array.from([1.0,2.0]);// returns <Float16Array>varv=arr[0];// returns 1.0v=arr[1];// returns 2.0varlen=arr.length;// returns 2

To invoke a function for each src value, provide a callback function.

vararr=Float16Array.from([1.0,2.0],clbk);// returns <Float16Array>varv=arr[0];// returns 2.0v=arr[1];// returns 4.0varlen=arr.length;// returns 2functionclbk(v){returnv*2.0;}

A callback function is provided two arguments:

• value: source value.
• index: source index.

To set the callback execution context, provide a thisArg.

Float16Array.of( element0[, element1[, ...elementN]] )

Creates a new 16-bit half-precision floating-point number array from a variable number of arguments.

vararr=newFloat16Array([10.0,20.0,30.0]);varv=arr.at(0);// returns 10.0v=arr.at(-1);// returns 30.0

If provided an out-of-bounds index, the method returns undefined.

Float16Array.prototype.copyWithin( target, start[, end] )

Copies a sequence of elements within an array starting at start and ending at end (non-inclusive) to the position starting at target.

vararr=newFloat16Array([1.0,2.0,3.0,4.0,5.0]);// Copy the last two elements to the first two elements:arr.copyWithin(0,3);varv=arr[0];// returns 4.0v=arr[1];// returns 5.0v=arr[2];// returns 3.0

By default, end equals the number of array elements (i.e., one more than the last array index). To limit the sequence length, provide an end argument.
