Note: The Bool64x2 type is currently not part of the SIMD specification draft.
The SIMD.Bool64x2 data type is a 128-bit vector divided into 2 lanes storing boolean values.
Syntax
SIMD.Bool64x2(x, y);
Parameters
- xOptional
- A boolean specifying the value of the first lane. Defaults to false.
- yOptional
- An boolean specifying the value of the second lane. Defaults to false.
Constructor functions
In addition to the simple creator functions, the SIMD API provides the following constructor functions:
- SIMD.Bool64x2.splat()
- Creates a Bool64x2 with all lanes set to a given value.
Note: SIMD types don't work with new, as SIMD values are no "boxed" objects (comparable to String(s) vs. new String(s), which creates a String object).
var v = new SIMD.Bool64x2(true, false); // TypeError: SIMD.Bool64x2 is not a constructor var w = new SIMD.Bool64x2.splat(true); // TypeError: SIMD.Bool64x2.splat is not a constructor
Instead, you just write:
var v = SIMD.Bool64x2(true, false); var w = SIMD.Boolt64x2.splat(true);
Operations
To actually do something with SIMD types, SIMD operations are needed that work on SIMD data types.
Checking SIMD types
- SIMD.Bool64x2.check()
- Returns a new Bool64x2 if the parameter is a valid Bool64x2 data type. Throws a TypeErrorotherwise.
Accessing and mutating lanes
- SIMD.Bool64x2.extractLane()
- Returns the value of the given lane.
- SIMD.Bool64x2.replaceLane()
- Returns a new Bool64x2 with the given lane value replaced.
Boolean operations
- SIMD.Bool64x2.allTrue()
- Checks if all lanes hold a truevalue.
- SIMD.Bool64x2.anyTrue()
- Checks if any of the lanes hold a truevalue.
Bitwise logical operations
- SIMD.Bool64x2.and()
- Returns a new Bool64x2 with the logical AND of the lane values (a & b).
- SIMD.Bool64x2.or()
- Returns a new Bool64x2 with the logical OR of the lane values (a | b).
- SIMD.Bool64x2.xor()
- Returns a new Bool64x2 with the logical XOR of the lane values (a ^ b).
- SIMD.Bool64x2.not()
- Returns a new Bool64x2 with the logical NOT of the lane values (~a).
SIMD prototype
The following methods and properties are installed on the SIMD.Bool64x2.prototype.
- SIMD.Bool64x2.prototype.constructor
- Specifies the function that creates a SIMD object's prototype.
- SIMD.Bool64x2.prototype.toLocaleString()
- Returns a localized string representing the SIMD type and its elements. Overrides the Object.prototype.toLocaleString()method.
- SIMD.Bool64x2.prototype.toString()
- Returns a string representing the SIMD type and its elements. Overrides the Object.prototype.toString()method.
- SIMD.Bool64x2.prototype.valueOf()
- Returns the primitive value of a SIMD object.
- SIMD.Bool64x2.prototype.toSource()
- Returns a string representing the source code of the object. Overrides the Object.prototype.toSource()method.
Examples
Constructing a Bool64x2
SIMD.Bool64x2(true, false); // Bool64x2[true, false] SIMD.Bool64x2(1); // Bool64x2[true, false] SIMD.Bool64x2(); // Bool64x2[false, false]
Specifications
The Bool64x2 type is currently not part of the SIMD specification draft.
