Overview

Raises the sample in aVector to the power of the number in bVector.

c[i] = pow(a[i], b[i])

Dispatcher Prototype

void volk_32f_x2_pow_32f(float* cVector, const float* bVector, const float* aVector,
unsigned int num_points) 

Inputs

• bVector: The input vector of indices (power values).
• aVector: The input vector of base values.
• num_points: The number of values in both input vectors.

Outputs

• cVector: The output vector.

Example Calculate the first two powers of two (2^x).

int N = 10;
unsigned int alignment = volk_get_alignment();
float* increasing = (float*)volk_malloc(sizeof(float)*N, alignment);
float* twos = (float*)volk_malloc(sizeof(float)*N, alignment);
float* out = (float*)volk_malloc(sizeof(float)*N, alignment);
 
for(unsigned int ii = 0; ii < N; ++ii){
    increasing[ii] = (float)ii;
    twos[ii] = 2.f;
}
 
volk_32f_x2_pow_32f(out, increasing, twos, N);
 
for(unsigned int ii = 0; ii < N; ++ii){
    printf("out[%u] = %1.2f\n", ii, out[ii]);
}
 
volk_free(increasing);
volk_free(twos);
volk_free(out);
