A numeric array class used to represent a generalized slice from an array
#include <valarray>
namespace std {
class gslice;
}
gslice represents a generalized slice from an array. A generalized slice contains a starting index, a set of lengths, and a set of strides. The number of lengths and strides must be equal. Together the lengths and strides allow a slice from a multiple dimension array (with the dimension equal to the number of strides) to be represented on a one-dimensional valarray. The gslice maps a set of n indices (ij), where n is equal to the number of strides, to a single index k.
When applied to a valarray using the gslice subscript operator (see valarray), a gslice produces a gslice_array. The gslice_array class creates a view into the original valarray that is tailored to match parameters of the gslice. The elements in a gslice_array are references to the elements in the original array.
namespace std{
class gslice {
public:
// constructors
gslice();
gslice(size_t, const valarray<size_t>&,
const valarray<size_t>&);
gslice(const gslice&);
// Accessors
size_t start() const;
valarray<size_t> size() const;
valarray<size_t> stride() const;
};
}
gslice();
Default constructor creates a gslice specifying no elements.
gslice(size_t start, const valarray<size_t>& length,
const valarray<size_t>& stride);
Creates a gslice with starting index, length, and stride as indicated by the arguments.
gslice(const gslice&)
Creates a gslice with starting index, length, and stride as indicated by the slice argument.
size_t start() const;
Returns the starting index of the gslice.
valarray<size_t> size() const;
Returns a valarray<size_t> containing the lengths of the gslice.
valarray<size_t> stride() const;
Returns a valarray<size_t> containing the strides of the gslice.
