_mm_erf_ps, _mm256_erf_ps

Calculates error function. Vector variant of erf(x) function for a 128-bit/256-bit vector argument of float32 values.

Syntax

extern __m128 _mm_erf_ps(__m128 v1);

extern __m256 _mm256_erf_ps(__m256 v1);

Arguments

v1

vector with float32 values

Description

Calculates error function of v1 elements, which is defined as:

erf(x) = 2/sqrt(pi)* integral from 0 to x of exp(-t*t) dt

Returns

128-bit/256-bit vector with the result of the operation.

NOTE:

Many routines in the Short Vector Math Library (SVML) are more optimized for Intel® microprocessors than for non-Intel microprocessors.
