vec_ctf

Purpose

Converts a vector of fixed-point numbers into a vector of floating-point numbers.

Syntax

d=vec_ctf(a, b)

Result and argument types

The following table describes the types of the returned value and the function arguments.

d a b
vector float vector signed int 0-31
vector unsigned int
vector signed long long
vector unsigned long long

Result value

The value of each element of the result is the closest floating-point estimate of the value of the corresponding element of a divided by 2 to the power of b.

Note: The second and fourth elements of the result vector are undefined when the argument a is a signed long long or unsigned long long vector.
