About stdlib...

We believe in a future in which the web is a preferred environment for numerical computation. To help realize this future, we've built stdlib. stdlib is a standard library, with an emphasis on numerical and scientific computation, written in JavaScript (and C) for execution in browsers and in Node.js.


The library is fully decomposable, being architected in such a way that you can swap out and mix and match APIs and functionality to cater to your exact preferences and use cases.


When you use stdlib, you can be absolutely certain that you are using the most thorough, rigorous, well-written, studied, documented, tested, measured, and high-quality code out there.


To join us in bringing numerical computing to the web, get started by checking us out on GitHub, and please consider financially supporting stdlib. We greatly appreciate your continued support!

> Calculate the sum of single-precision floating-point strided array elements using an improved Kahan–Babuška algorithm.

## Installation

```bash
npm install @stdlib/blas-ext-base-ssumkbn
```

Alternatively,

- To load the package in a website via a `script` tag without installation and bundlers, use the [ES Module][es-module] available on the [`esm`][esm-url] branch (see [README][esm-readme]).
- If you are using Deno, visit the [`deno`][deno-url] branch (see [README][deno-readme] for usage intructions).
- For use in Observable, or in browser/node environments, use the [Universal Module Definition (UMD)][umd] build available on the [`umd`][umd-url] branch (see [README][umd-readme]).

The [branches.md][branches-url] file summarizes the available branches and displays a diagram illustrating their relationships.

To view installation and usage instructions specific to each branch build, be sure to explicitly navigate to the respective README files on each branch, as linked to above.

## Usage

```javascript
var ssumkbn = require( '@stdlib/blas-ext-base-ssumkbn' );
```

#### ssumkbn( N, x, stride )

Computes the sum of single-precision floating-point strided array elements using an improved Kahan–Babuška algorithm.

```javascript
var Float32Array = require( '@stdlib/array-float32' );

var x = new Float32Array( [ 1.0, -2.0, 2.0 ] );
var N = x.length;

var v = ssumkbn( N, x, 1 );
// returns 1.0
```

The function has the following parameters:

- **N**: number of indexed elements.
- **x**: input [`Float32Array`][@stdlib/array/float32].
- **stride**: index increment for `x`.

The `N` and `stride` parameters determine which elements in the strided array are accessed at runtime. For example, to compute the sum of every other element in the strided array,

```javascript
var Float32Array = require( '@stdlib/array-float32' );

var x = new Float32Array( [ 1.0, 2.0, 2.0, -7.0, -2.0, 3.0, 4.0, 2.0 ] );

var v = ssumkbn( 4, x, 2 );
// returns 5.0
```

Note that indexing is relative to the first index. To introduce an offset, use [`typed array`][mdn-typed-array] views.

```javascript
var Float32Array = require( '@stdlib/array-float32' );

var x0 = new Float32Array( [ 2.0, 1.0, 2.0, -2.0, -2.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0 ] );
var x1 = new Float32Array( x0.buffer, x0.BYTES_PER_ELEMENT*1 ); // start at 2nd element

var v = ssumkbn( 4, x1, 2 );
// returns 5.0
```

#### ssumkbn.ndarray( N, x, stride, offset )

Computes the sum of single-precision floating-point strided array elements using an improved Kahan–Babuška algorithm and alternative indexing semantics.

```javascript
var Float32Array = require( '@stdlib/array-float32' );

var x = new Float32Array( [ 1.0, -2.0, 2.0 ] );
var N = x.length;

var v = ssumkbn.ndarray( N, x, 1, 0 );
// returns 1.0
```

The function has the following additional parameters:

- **offset**: starting index for `x`.

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 the strided array starting from the second value

```javascript
var Float32Array = require( '@stdlib/array-float32' );

var x = new Float32Array( [ 2.0, 1.0, 2.0, -2.0, -2.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0 ] );

var v = ssumkbn.ndarray( 4, x, 2, 1 );
// returns 5.0
```

## Notes

- If `N <= 0`, both functions return `0.0`.

## Examples

```javascript
var discreteUniform = require( '@stdlib/random-base-discrete-uniform' ).factory;
var filledarrayBy = require( '@stdlib/array-filled-by' );
var ssumkbn = require( '@stdlib/blas-ext-base-ssumkbn' );

var x = filledarrayBy( 10, 'float32', discreteUniform( 0, 100 ) );
console.log( x );

var v = ssumkbn( x.length, x, 1 );
console.log( v );
```
