SIMD.Bool16x8

The SIMD.Bool16x8 data type is a 128-bit vector divided into 8 lanes storing boolean values.

Syntax

SIMD.Bool16x8(s0, s1, s2, s3, s4, s5, s6, s7);

Parameters

s[0-7] Optional

A boolean specifying the value of the lane. Defaults to false.

Constructor functions

In addition to the simple creator function, the SIMD API provides the following constructor functions.

SIMD.Bool16x8.splat()

Creates an Bool6x8 with all lanes set to a given value.

var v = new SIMD.Bool16x8(true,true,true,true,false,false,false,false); 
// TypeError: SIMD.Bool16x8 is not a constructor
var w = new SIMD.Bool16x8.splat(true); 
// TypeError: SIMD.Bool16x8.splat is not a constructor

var v = SIMD.Bool16x8(true,true,true,true,false,false,false,false);
var w = SIMD.Bool16x8.splat(true);

Operations

To actually do something with SIMD types, SIMD operations are needed that work on SIMD data types.

Checking SIMD types

SIMD.Bool16x8.check()

Returns a new Bool16x8 if the parameter is a valid Bool16x8 data type. Throws a TypeError otherwise.

Accessing and mutating lanes

SIMD.Bool16x8.extractLane()

Returns the value of the given lane.

SIMD.Bool16x8.replaceLane()

Returns a new Bool16x8 with the given lane value replaced.

Boolean operations

SIMD.Bool16x8.allTrue()

Checks if all lanes hold a true value.

SIMD.Bool16x8.anyTrue()

Checks if any of the lanes hold a true value.

Bitwise logical operations

SIMD.Bool16x8.and()

Returns a new Bool16x8 with the logical AND of the lane values (a & b).

SIMD.Bool16x8.or()

Returns a new Bool16x8 with the logical OR of the lane values (a | b).

SIMD.Bool16x8.xor()

Returns a new Bool16x8 with the logical XOR of the lane values (a ^ b).

SIMD.Bool16x8.not()

Returns a new Bool16x8 with lane with the logical NOT of the lane values (~a).

SIMD prototype

The following methods and properties are installed on the SIMD.Bool16x8.prototype.

SIMD.Bool16x8.prototype.constructor

Specifies the function that creates a SIMD object's prototype.

SIMD.Bool16x8.prototype.toLocaleString()

Returns a localized string representing the SIMD type and its elements. Overrides the Object.prototype.toLocaleString() method.

SIMD.Bool16x8.prototype.toString()

Returns a string representing the SIMD type and its elements. Overrides the Object.prototype.toString() method.

SIMD.Bool16x8.prototype.valueOf()

Returns the primitive value of a SIMD object.

SIMD.Bool16x8.prototype.toSource()

Returns a string representing the source code of the object. Overrides the Object.prototype.toSource() method.

Examples

Constructing a Bool16x8

SIMD.Bool16x8(true, true, true, true, false, false, false, false); 
// Bool16x8[true, true, true, true, false, false, false, false]

SIMD.Bool16x8(true, false);
// Bool16x8[true, false, false, false, false, false, false, false]

SIMD.Bool16x8();
// Bool16x8[false, false, false false, false, false, false, false]
