SIMD.%type%.store()

This is an experimental technology
Because this technology's specification has not stabilized, check the compatibility table for usage in various browsers. Also note that the syntax and behavior of an experimental technology is subject to change in future versions of browsers as the specification changes.

The static SIMD.%type%.store() methods store a SIMD data type into a typed array.

SIMD.Float32x4.store1(tarray, index, value)
SIMD.Float32x4.store2(tarray, index, value)

SIMD.Int32x4.store(tarray, index, value)
SIMD.Int32x4.store1(tarray, index, value)
SIMD.Int32x4.store2(tarray, index, value)
SIMD.Int32x4.store3(tarray, index, value)
SIMD.Int8x16.store(tarray, index, value)
SIMD.Int16x8.store(tarray, index, value) 
SIMD.Uint32x4.store(tarray, index, value)
SIMD.Uint32x4.store1(tarray, index, value)
SIMD.Uint32x4.store2(tarray, index, value)
SIMD.Uint32x4.store3(tarray, index, value)
SIMD.Uint8x16.store(tarray, index, value)
SIMD.Uint16x8.store(tarray, index, value) 

Parameters

tarray
An instance of a typed array. This can be one of:
index
A number for the index from where to start storing in the typed array.
value
An instance of a SIMD data type to store into the typed array.

Return value

The value that has been stored (a SIMD data type).

Exceptions

  • If index is out of range, for example SIMD.Int32x4.store(tarray, -1, value) or bigger than the size of tarray, a RangeError is thrown.
  • If tarray is not one of the typed array types, for example SIMD.Int32x4.store(tarray.buffer, 0) (an array buffer is not valid), a TypeError is thrown.

Description

The SIMD load and store methods intermix with typed arrays. With load, you can pass in typed arrays into SIMD types and with store, SIMD data can be stored into typed arrays.

You can either store all lane values using store(), or only store one, two or three lane values with the methods store1(), store2() or store3().

Examples

The following examples use SIMD.Int32x4 data type stored into an Int32Array.

Storing all values

var tarray = new Int32Array(8);
var value = SIMD.Int32x4(1, 2, 3, 4);
SIMD.Int32x4.store(tarray, 0, value);
// tarray = Int32Array[1, 2, 3, 4, 0, 0, 0, 0]
var tarray = new Int32Array(8);
var value = SIMD.Int32x4(1, 2, 3, 4);
SIMD.Int32x4.store(tarray, 2, value);
// tarray = Int32Array[0, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 0, 0]

Storing one value

var tarray = new Int32Array(8);
var value = SIMD.Int32x4(1, 2, 3, 4);
SIMD.Int32x4.store1(tarray, 0, value);
// tarray = Int32Array[1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0]
var tarray = new Int32Array(8);
var value = SIMD.Int32x4(1, 2, 3, 4);
SIMD.Int32x4.store1(tarray, 2, value);
// tarray = Int32Array[0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0]

Storing two values

var tarray = new Int32Array(8);
var value = SIMD.Int32x4(1, 2, 3, 4);
SIMD.Int32x4.store2(tarray, 0, value);
// tarray = Int32Array[1, 2, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0]
var tarray = new Int32Array(8);
var value = SIMD.Int32x4(1, 2, 3, 4);
SIMD.Int32x4.store2(tarray, 2, value);
// tarray = Int32Array[0, 0, 1, 2, 0, 0, 0, 0]

Storing three values

var tarray = new Int32Array(8);
var value = SIMD.Int32x4(1, 2, 3, 4);
SIMD.Int32x4.store3(tarray, 0, value);
// tarray = Int32Array[1, 2, 3, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0]
var tarray = new Int32Array(8);
var value = SIMD.Int32x4(1, 2, 3, 4);
SIMD.Int32x4.store3(tarray, 2, value);
// tarray = Int32Array[0, 0, 1, 2, 3, 0, 0, 0]
