Parameters

pSrc

Pointer to the source vector.

pDst

Pointer to the destination vector.

len

Number of elements in the vectors.

Description

This function computes the inverse error function value for each element of pSrc and stores the result in the corresponding element of pDst.

For single precision data:

function flavor ippsErfInv_32f_A11 guarantees 11 correctly rounded bits of significand, or at least 3 exact decimal digits;

function flavor ippsErfInv_32f_A21 guarantees 21 correctly rounded bits of significand, or 4 ulps, or about 6 exact decimal digits;

function flavor ippsErfInv_32f_A24 guarantees 24 correctly rounded bits of significand, including the implied bit, with the maximum guaranteed error within 1 ulp.

For double precision data:

function flavor ippsErfInv_64f_A26 guarantees 26 correctly rounded bits of significand, or 6.7E+7 ulps, or approximately 8 exact decimal digits;

function flavor ippsErfInv_64f_A50 guarantees 50 correctly rounded bits of significand, or 4 ulps, or approximately 15 exact decimal digits;

function flavor ippsErfInv_64f_A53 guarantees 53 correctly rounded bits of significand, including the implied bit, with the maximum guaranteed error within 1 ulp.

The computation is performed as follows:

pDst[n] = erfinv(pSrc[n]), 0 ≤ n < len, where erfinv(x) = erf -1(x), and erf(x) denotes the error function defined as given by:



Return Values

ippStsNoErr

Indicates no error.

ippStsNullPtrErr

Indicates an error when pSrc or pDst pointer is NULL.

ippStsSizeErr

Indicates an error when len is less than or equal to 0.

ippStsDomain

Indicates a warning that the argument is out of the function domain, that is, at least one of pSrc elements has the absolute value greater than 1.

ippStsSingularity

Indicates a warning that the argument is a singularity point, that is, at least one of the elements of pSrc has the absolute value equal to 1.

Example

The example below shows how to use the function ippsErfcInv.

IppStatus ippsErfInv_32f_A21_sample(void) {
	const Ipp32f x[4] = {-0.842, 0.638, -0.345, -0.774};
	Ipp32f y[4];
	IppStatus st = ippsErfInv_32f_A21( x, y, 4 );
	
	printf(" ippsErfInv_32f_A21:\n");
	printf(" x = %.3f %.3f %.3f %.3f \n", x[0], x[1], x[2], x[3]);
	printf(" y = %.3f %.3f %.3f %.3f \n", y[0], y[1], y[2], y[3]);
	return st;
}

Output:

 
ippsErfInv_32f_A21:
x = -0.842 0.638 -0.345 -0.774
y = -0.998 0.645 -0.316 -0.856
