nextafter

Returns vector of elements containing the next representable floating-point values following the values from the elements of one vector in the direction of the corresponding elements of another vector.

Syntax

Buffer API:

namespace oneapi::mkl::vm {

sycl::event nextafter(
        sycl::queue& exec_queue,
        std::int64_t n,
        sycl::buffer<T,1>& a,
        sycl::buffer<T,1>& b,
        sycl::buffer<T,1>& y,
        oneapi::mkl::vm::mode mode = oneapi::mkl::vm::mode::not_defined,
        oneapi::mkl::vm::error_handler<T> errhandler = {});

} // namespace oneapi::mkl::vm

USM API:

namespace oneapi::mkl::vm {

sycl::event nextafter(
        sycl::queue& exec_queue,
        std::int64_t n,
        const T *a,
        const T *b,
        T* y,
        std::vector<sycl::event> const & depends = {},
        oneapi::mkl::vm::mode mode = oneapi::mkl::vm::mode::not_defined,
        oneapi::mkl::vm::error_handler<T> errhandler = {});

} // namespace oneapi::mkl::vm

nextafter supports the following precisions.

T
float
double

Description

The nextafter(a, b) function returns a vector containing the next representable floating-point values following the first vector argument elements in the direction of the second vector argument’s corresponding elements.

Arguments/Results	Status code
Input vector argument element is finite and the corresponding result vector element value is infinite	oneapi::mkl::vm::status::overflow
Result vector element value is subnormal or zero, and different from the corresponding input vector argument element	oneapi::mkl::vm::status::underflow

Even though underflow or overflow can occur, the returned value is independent of the current rounding direction mode.

Input Parameters

Buffer API:

exec_queue

The queue where the routine should be executed.

n

Specifies the number of elements to be calculated.

a

The buffer a containing 1st input vector of size n.

b

The buffer b containing 2nd input vector of size n.

mode

Overrides the global VM mode setting for this function call. See set_mode function for possible values and their description. This is an optional parameter. The default value is oneapi::mkl::vm::mode::not_defined.

errhandler

Sets local error handling mode for this function call. See the create_error_handler function for arguments and their descriptions. This is an optional parameter. The local error handler is disabled by default.

USM API:

exec_queue

The queue where the routine should be executed.

n

Specifies the number of elements to be calculated.

a

Pointer a to the 1st input vector of size n.

b

Pointer b to the 2nd input vector of size n.

depends

Vector of dependent events (to wait for input data to be ready).

mode

Overrides the global VM mode setting for this function call. See the set_mode function for possible values and their description. This is an optional parameter. The default value is oneapi::mkl::vm::mode::not_defined.

errhandler

Sets local error handling mode for this function call. See the create_error_handler function for arguments and their descriptions. This is an optional parameter. The local error handler is disabled by default.

Output Parameters

Buffer API:

y

The buffer y containing the output vector of size n.

USM API:

y

Pointer y to the output vector of size n.

return value (event)

Event, signifying availability of computed output and status code(s).
