(** Large, multi-dimensional, numerical arrays.
This module implements multi-dimensional arrays of integers and
floating-point numbers, thereafter referred to as ``big arrays''.
The implementation allows efficient sharing of large numerical
arrays between Caml code and C or Fortran numerical libraries.
Concerning the naming conventions, users of this module are encouraged
to do [open Bigarray] in their source, then refer to array types and
operations via short dot notation, e.g. [Array1.t] or [Array2.sub].
Big arrays support all the Caml ad-hoc polymorphic operations:
- comparisons ([=], [<>], [<=], etc, as well as {!Pervasives.compare});
- hashing (module [Hash]);
- and structured input-output ({!Pervasives.output_value}
and {!Pervasives.input_value}, as well as the functions from the
{!Marshal} module).
*)
(** {6 Element kinds} *)
(** Big arrays can contain elements of the following kinds:
- IEEE single precision (32 bits) floating-point numbers
({!Bigarray.float32_elt}),
- IEEE double precision (64 bits) floating-point numbers
({!Bigarray.float64_elt}),
- IEEE single precision (2 * 32 bits) floating-point complex numbers
({!Bigarray.complex32_elt}),
- IEEE double precision (2 * 64 bits) floating-point complex numbers
({!Bigarray.complex64_elt}),
- 8-bit integers (signed or unsigned)
({!Bigarray.int8_signed_elt} or {!Bigarray.int8_unsigned_elt}),
- 16-bit integers (signed or unsigned)
({!Bigarray.int16_signed_elt} or {!Bigarray.int16_unsigned_elt}),
- Caml integers (signed, 31 bits on 32-bit architectures,
63 bits on 64-bit architectures) ({!Bigarray.int_elt}),
- 32-bit signed integer ({!Bigarray.int32_elt}),
- 64-bit signed integers ({!Bigarray.int64_elt}),
- platform-native signed integers (32 bits on 32-bit architectures,
64 bits on 64-bit architectures) ({!Bigarray.nativeint_elt}).
Each element kind is represented at the type level by one
of the abstract types defined below.
*)
type float32_elt
type float64_elt
type complex32_elt
type complex64_elt
type int8_signed_elt
type int8_unsigned_elt
type int16_signed_elt
type int16_unsigned_elt
type int_elt
type int32_elt
type int64_elt
type nativeint_elt
type ('a, 'b) kind
(** To each element kind is associated a Caml type, which is
the type of Caml values that can be stored in the big array
or read back from it. This type is not necessarily the same
as the type of the array elements proper: for instance,
a big array whose elements are of kind [float32_elt] contains
32-bit single precision floats, but reading or writing one of
its elements from Caml uses the Caml type [float], which is
64-bit double precision floats.
The abstract type [('a, 'b) kind] captures this association
of a Caml type ['a] for values read or written in the big array,
and of an element kind ['b] which represents the actual contents
of the big array. The following predefined values of type
[kind] list all possible associations of Caml types with
element kinds: *)
val float32 : (float, float32_elt) kind
(** See {!Bigarray.char}. *)
val float64 : (float, float64_elt) kind
(** See {!Bigarray.char}. *)
val complex32 : (Complex.t, complex32_elt) kind
(** See {!Bigarray.char}. *)
val complex64 : (Complex.t, complex64_elt) kind
(** See {!Bigarray.char}. *)
val int8_signed : (int, int8_signed_elt) kind
(** See {!Bigarray.char}. *)
val int8_unsigned : (int, int8_unsigned_elt) kind
(** See {!Bigarray.char}. *)
val int16_signed : (int, int16_signed_elt) kind
(** See {!Bigarray.char}. *)
val int16_unsigned : (int, int16_unsigned_elt) kind
(** See {!Bigarray.char}. *)
val int : (int, int_elt) kind
(** See {!Bigarray.char}. *)
val int32 : (int32, int32_elt) kind
(** See {!Bigarray.char}. *)
val int64 : (int64, int64_elt) kind
(** See {!Bigarray.char}. *)
val nativeint : (nativeint, nativeint_elt) kind
(** See {!Bigarray.char}. *)
val char : (char, int8_unsigned_elt) kind
(** As shown by the types of the values above,
big arrays of kind [float32_elt] and [float64_elt] are
accessed using the Caml type [float]. Big arrays of complex kinds
[complex32_elt], [complex64_elt] are accessed with the Caml type
{!Complex.t}. Big arrays of
integer kinds are accessed using the smallest Caml integer
type large enough to represent the array elements:
[int] for 8- and 16-bit integer bigarrays, as well as Caml-integer
bigarrays; [int32] for 32-bit integer bigarrays; [int64]
for 64-bit integer bigarrays; and [nativeint] for
platform-native integer bigarrays. Finally, big arrays of
kind [int8_unsigned_elt] can also be accessed as arrays of
characters instead of arrays of small integers, by using
the kind value [char] instead of [int8_unsigned]. *)
(** {6 Array layouts} *)
type c_layout
(** See {!Bigarray.fortran_layout}.*)
type fortran_layout
(** To facilitate interoperability with existing C and Fortran code,
this library supports two different memory layouts for big arrays,
one compatible with the C conventions,
the other compatible with the Fortran conventions.
In the C-style layout, array indices start at 0, and
multi-dimensional arrays are laid out in row-major format.
That is, for a two-dimensional array, all elements of
row 0 are contiguous in memory, followed by all elements of
row 1, etc. In other terms, the array elements at [(x,y)]
and [(x, y+1)] are adjacent in memory.
In the Fortran-style layout, array indices start at 1, and
multi-dimensional arrays are laid out in column-major format.
That is, for a two-dimensional array, all elements of
column 0 are contiguous in memory, followed by all elements of
column 1, etc. In other terms, the array elements at [(x,y)]
and [(x+1, y)] are adjacent in memory.
Each layout style is identified at the type level by the
abstract types {!Bigarray.c_layout} and [fortran_layout] respectively. *)
type 'a layout
(** The type ['a layout] represents one of the two supported
memory layouts: C-style if ['a] is {!Bigarray.c_layout}, Fortran-style
if ['a] is {!Bigarray.fortran_layout}. *)
(** {7 Supported layouts}
The abstract values [c_layout] and [fortran_layout] represent
the two supported layouts at the level of values.
*)
val c_layout : c_layout layout
val fortran_layout : fortran_layout layout
(** {6 Generic arrays (of arbitrarily many dimensions)} *)
module Genarray :
sig
type ('a, 'b, 'c) t
(** The type [Genarray.t] is the type of big arrays with variable
numbers of dimensions. Any number of dimensions between 1 and 16
is supported.
The three type parameters to [Genarray.t] identify the array element
kind and layout, as follows:
- the first parameter, ['a], is the Caml type for accessing array
elements ([float], [int], [int32], [int64], [nativeint]);
- the second parameter, ['b], is the actual kind of array elements
([float32_elt], [float64_elt], [int8_signed_elt], [int8_unsigned_elt],
etc);
- the third parameter, ['c], identifies the array layout
([c_layout] or [fortran_layout]).
For instance, [(float, float32_elt, fortran_layout) Genarray.t]
is the type of generic big arrays containing 32-bit floats
in Fortran layout; reads and writes in this array use the
Caml type [float]. *)
external create: ('a, 'b) kind -> 'c layout -> int array -> ('a, 'b, 'c) t
= "bigarray_create"
(** [Genarray.create kind layout dimensions] returns a new big array
whose element kind is determined by the parameter [kind] (one of
[float32], [float64], [int8_signed], etc) and whose layout is
determined by the parameter [layout] (one of [c_layout] or
[fortran_layout]). The [dimensions] parameter is an array of
integers that indicate the size of the big array in each dimension.
The length of [dimensions] determines the number of dimensions
of the bigarray.
For instance, [Genarray.create int32 c_layout [|4;6;8|]]
returns a fresh big array of 32-bit integers, in C layout,
having three dimensions, the three dimensions being 4, 6 and 8
respectively.
Big arrays returned by [Genarray.create] are not initialized:
the initial values of array elements is unspecified.
[Genarray.create] raises [Invalid_arg] if the number of dimensions
is not in the range 1 to 16 inclusive, or if one of the dimensions
is negative. *)

(** Return the number of dimensions of the given big array. *)
val dims : ('a, 'b, 'c) t -> int array

as an array of integers of length [Genarray.num_dims a]. *)
external nth_dim: ('a, 'b, 'c) t -> int -> int = "bigarray_dim"
(** [Genarray.nth_dim a n] returns the [n]-th dimension of the
big array [a]. The first dimension corresponds to [n = 0];
the second dimension corresponds to [n = 1]; the last dimension,
to [n = Genarray.num_dims a - 1].
Raise [Invalid_arg] if [n] is less than 0 or greater or equal than
[Genarray.num_dims a]. *)
external kind: ('a, 'b, 'c) t -> ('a, 'b) kind = "bigarray_kind"
(** Return the kind of the given big array. *)

external get: ('a, 'b, 'c) t -> int array -> 'a = "bigarray_get_generic"
(** Read an element of a generic big array.
[Genarray.get a [|i1; ...; iN|]] returns the element of [a]
whose coordinates are [i1] in the first dimension, [i2] in
the second dimension, ..., [iN] in the [N]-th dimension.
If [a] has C layout, the coordinates must be greater or equal than 0
and strictly less than the corresponding dimensions of [a].
If [a] has Fortran layout, the coordinates must be greater or equal
than 1 and less or equal than the corresponding dimensions of [a].
Raise [Invalid_arg] if the array [a] does not have exactly [N]
dimensions, or if the coordinates are outside the array bounds.
If [N > 3], alternate syntax is provided: you can write
[a.{i1, i2, ..., iN}] instead of [Genarray.get a [|i1; ...; iN|]].
(The syntax [a.{...}] with one, two or three coordinates is
reserved for accessing one-, two- and three-dimensional arrays
as described below.) *)
external set: ('a, 'b, 'c) t -> int array -> 'a -> unit
= "bigarray_set_generic"
(** Assign an element of a generic big array.
[Genarray.set a [|i1; ...; iN|] v] stores the value [v] in the
element of [a] whose coordinates are [i1] in the first dimension,
[i2] in the second dimension, ..., [iN] in the [N]-th dimension.
The array [a] must have exactly [N] dimensions, and all coordinates
must lie inside the array bounds, as described for [Genarray.get];
otherwise, [Invalid_arg] is raised.
If [N > 3], alternate syntax is provided: you can write
[a.{i1, i2, ..., iN} <- v] instead of
[Genarray.set a [|i1; ...; iN|] v].
(The syntax [a.{...} <- v] with one, two or three coordinates is

which corresponds to the interval [[ofs ... ofs + len - 1]]
of the first dimension of [a]. No copying of elements is
involved: the sub-array and the original array share the same
storage space. In other terms, the element at coordinates
[[|i1; ...; iN|]] of the sub-array is identical to the
element at coordinates [[|i1+ofs; ...; iN|]] of the original
array [a].
[Genarray.sub_left] applies only to big arrays in C layout.
Raise [Invalid_arg] if [ofs] and [len] do not designate
a valid sub-array of [a], that is, if [ofs < 0], or [len < 0],

(** Extract a sub-array of lower dimension from the given big array

[Genarray.slice_left a [|i1; ... ; iM|]] returns the ``slice''
of [a] obtained by setting the first [M] coordinates to
[i1], ..., [iM]. If [a] has [N] dimensions, the slice has
dimension [N - M], and the element at coordinates
[[|j1; ...; j(N-M)|]] in the slice is identical to the element
at coordinates [[|i1; ...; iM; j1; ...; j(N-M)|]] in the original
array [a]. No copying of elements is involved: the slice and

external map_file:
Unix.file_descr -> ('a, 'b) kind -> 'c layout ->
bool -> int array -> ('a, 'b, 'c) t = "bigarray_map_file"
(** Memory mapping of a file as a big array.
[Genarray.map_file fd kind layout shared dims]
returns a big array of kind [kind], layout [layout],
and dimensions as specified in [dims]. The data contained in
this big array are the contents of the file referred to by
the file descriptor [fd] (as opened previously with
[Unix.openfile], for example). If [shared] is [true],
all modifications performed on the array are reflected in
the file. This requires that [fd] be opened with write permissions.
If [shared] is [false], modifications performed on the array
are done in memory only, using copy-on-write of the modified
pages; the underlying file is not affected.
[Genarray.map_file] is much more efficient than reading
the whole file in a big array, modifying that big array,
and writing it afterwards.
To adjust automatically the dimensions of the big array to
the actual size of the file, the major dimension (that is,
the first dimension for an array with C layout, and the last
dimension for an array with Fortran layout) can be given as
[-1]. [Genarray.map_file] then determines the major dimension
from the size of the file. The file must contain an integral
number of sub-arrays as determined by the non-major dimensions,
otherwise [Failure] is raised.
If all dimensions of the big array are given, the file size is
matched against the size of the big array. If the file is larger
than the big array, only the initial portion of the file is
mapped to the big array. If the file is smaller than the big
array, the file is automatically grown to the size of the big array.
This requires write permissions on [fd]. *)
