For example, to compute the minimum value 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, -7.0, -2.0, 4.0, 3.0, NaN, NaN ] ); 66 var N = floor( x.length / 2 ); 67 68 var v = snanmin( N, x, 2 ); 69 // returns -7.0 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, -2.0, -2.0, 3.0, 4.0, NaN, NaN ] ); 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 = snanmin( N, x1, 2 ); 86 // returns -2.0 87 ``` 88 89 #### snanmin.ndarray( N, x, stride, offset ) 90 91 Computes the minimum value of a single-precision floating-point strided array, ignoring `NaN` values and using 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 = snanmin.ndarray( N, x, 1, 0 ); 100 // returns -2.0 101 ``` 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 minimum value for 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, -2.0, -2.0, 3.0, 4.0, NaN, NaN ] ); 114 var N = floor( x.length / 2 ); 115 116 var v = snanmin.ndarray( N, x, 2, 1 ); 117 // returns -2.0 118 ``` 119 120 </section> 121 122 <!-- /.usage --> 123 124 <section class="notes"> 125 126 ## Notes 127 128 - If `N <= 0`, both functions return `NaN`. 129 130 </section> 131 132 <!-- /.notes --> 133 134 <section class="examples"> 135 136 ## Examples 137 138 <!-- eslint no-undef: "error" --> 139 140 ```javascript 141 var randu = require( '@stdlib/random/base/randu' ); 142 var round = require( '@stdlib/math/base/special/round' ); 143 var Float32Array = require( '@stdlib/array/float32' ); 144 var snanmin = require( '@stdlib/stats/base/snanmin' ); 145 146 var x; 147 var i; 148 149 x = new Float32Array( 10 ); 150 for ( i = 0; i < x.length; i++ ) { 151 if ( randu() < 0.2 ) { 152 x[ i ] = NaN; 153 } else { 154 x[ i ] = round( (randu()*100.0) - 50.0 ); 155 } 156 } 157 console.log( x ); 158 159 var v = snanmin( x.length, x, 1 ); 160 console.log( v ); 161 ``` 162 163 </section> 164 165 <!-- /.examples --> 166 167 <section class="links"> 168 169 [@stdlib/array/float32]: https://www.npmjs.com/package/@stdlib/array-float32 170 171 [mdn-typed-array]: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/TypedArray 172 173 </section> 174 175 <!-- /.links -->
