isAlmostEqualFloat32Array

Test if two arguments are both Float32Arrays and contain respective elements which are approximately equal within a specified number of ULPs (units in the last place).

Installation

npm install @stdlib/assert-is-almost-equal-float32array

Usage

var isAlmostEqualFloat32Array = require( '@stdlib/assert-is-almost-equal-float32array' );

isAlmostEqualFloat32Array( v1, v2, maxULP )

Tests if two arguments are both Float32Arrays and contain respective elements which are approximately equal within a specified number of ULPs (units in the last place).

var EPS = require( '@stdlib/constants-float32-eps' );
var Float32Array = require( '@stdlib/array-float32' );

var x = new Float32Array( [ 1.0, 2.0 ] );
var y = new Float32Array( [ 1.0+EPS, 2.0 ] );

var bool = isAlmostEqualFloat32Array( x, y, 0 );
// returns false

bool = isAlmostEqualFloat32Array( x, y, 1 );
// returns true

bool = isAlmostEqualFloat32Array( x, [ 1.0, 2.0 ], 1 );
// returns false

Notes

• The function returns false if either input value is a Float32Array containing NaN.
• The function does not distinguish between -0 and +0, treating them as equal.

Examples

var Float32Array = require( '@stdlib/array-float32' );
var isAlmostEqualFloat32Array = require( '@stdlib/assert-is-almost-equal-float32array' );

var x = new Float32Array( [ 1.0, 2.0, 3.0 ] );
var y = new Float32Array( [ 1.0, 2.0, 3.0 ] );
var out = isAlmostEqualFloat32Array( x, y, 0 );
// returns true

x = new Float32Array( [ -0.0, 0.0, -0.0 ] );
y = new Float32Array( [ 0.0, -0.0, 0.0 ] );
out = isAlmostEqualFloat32Array( x, y, 1 );
// returns true

x = new Float32Array( [ NaN, NaN, NaN ] );
y = new Float32Array( [ NaN, NaN, NaN ] );
out = isAlmostEqualFloat32Array( x, y, 0 );
// returns false
