     33 ## Usage
     34 
     35 ```javascript
     36 var dsnansumpw = require( '@stdlib/blas/ext/base/dsnansumpw' );
     37 ```
     38 
     39 #### dsnansumpw( N, x, stride )
     40 
     41 Computes the sum of single-precision floating-point strided array elements, ignoring `NaN` values, using pairwise summation with extended accumulation, and returning an extended precision result.
     42 
     43 ```javascript
     44 var Float32Array = require( '@stdlib/array/float32' );
     45 
     46 var x = new Float32Array( [ 1.0, -2.0, NaN, 2.0 ] );
     47 var N = x.length;
     48 
     49 var v = dsnansumpw( N, x, 1 );
     50 // returns 1.0
     51 ```
     52 
     53 The function has the following parameters:
     54 
     55 -   **N**: number of indexed elements.
     56 -   **x**: input [`Float32Array`][@stdlib/array/float32].
     57 -   **stride**: index increment for `x`.
     58 
     59 The `N` and `stride` parameters determine which elements in `x` are accessed at runtime. For example, to compute the sum of every other element in `x`,
     60 
     61 ```javascript
     62 var Float32Array = require( '@stdlib/array/float32' );
     63 var floor = require( '@stdlib/math/base/special/floor' );
     64 
     65 var x = new Float32Array( [ 1.0, 2.0, NaN, -7.0, NaN, 3.0, 4.0, 2.0 ] );
     66 var N = floor( x.length / 2 );
     67 
     68 var v = dsnansumpw( N, x, 2 );
     69 // returns 5.0
     70 ```
     71 
     72 Note that indexing is relative to the first index. To introduce an offset, use [`typed array`][mdn-typed-array] views.
     73 
     74 <!-- eslint-disable stdlib/capitalized-comments -->
     75 
     76 ```javascript
     77 var Float32Array = require( '@stdlib/array/float32' );
     78 var floor = require( '@stdlib/math/base/special/floor' );
     79 
     80 var x0 = new Float32Array( [ 2.0, 1.0, NaN, -2.0, -2.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0 ] );
     81 var x1 = new Float32Array( x0.buffer, x0.BYTES_PER_ELEMENT*1 ); // start at 2nd element
     82 
     83 var N = floor( x0.length / 2 );
     84 
     85 var v = dsnansumpw( N, x1, 2 );
     86 // returns 5.0
     87 ```
     88 
     89 #### dsnansumpw.ndarray( N, x, stride, offset )
     90 
     91 Computes the sum of single-precision floating-point strided array elements, ignoring `NaN` values and using pairwise summation with extended accumulation and alternative indexing semantics.
     92 
     93 ```javascript
     94 var Float32Array = require( '@stdlib/array/float32' );
     95 
     96 var x = new Float32Array( [ 1.0, -2.0, NaN, 2.0 ] );
     97 var N = x.length;
     98 
     99 var v = dsnansumpw.ndarray( N, x, 1, 0 );
    100 // returns 1.0
    101 ```
    102 
    103 The function has the following additional parameters:
    104 
    105 -   **offset**: starting index for `x`.
    106 
    107 While [`typed array`][mdn-typed-array] views mandate a view offset based on the underlying `buffer`, the `offset` parameter supports indexing semantics based on a starting index. For example, to calculate the sum of every other value in `x` starting from the second value
    108 
    109 ```javascript
    110 var Float32Array = require( '@stdlib/array/float32' );
    111 var floor = require( '@stdlib/math/base/special/floor' );
    112 
    113 var x = new Float32Array( [ 2.0, 1.0, NaN, -2.0, -2.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0 ] );
    114 var N = floor( x.length / 2 );
    115 
    116 var v = dsnansumpw.ndarray( N, x, 2, 1 );
    117 // returns 5.0
    118 ```

    126 ## Notes
    127 
    128 -   If `N <= 0`, both functions return `0.0`.
    129 -   Accumulated intermediate values are stored as double-precision floating-point numbers.
