11.5 Examples
The following example shows how to use the permutation p to print
the elements of the vector v in ascending order,
| | gsl_sort_vector_index (p, v);
for (i = 0; i < v->size; i++)
{
double vpi = gsl_vector_get (v, p->data[i]);
printf ("order = %d, value = %g\n", i, vpi);
}
|
The next example uses the function gsl_sort_smallest to select
the 5 smallest numbers from 100000 uniform random variates stored in an
array,
| | #include <gsl/gsl_rng.h>
#include <gsl/gsl_sort_double.h>
int
main (void)
{
const gsl_rng_type * T;
gsl_rng * r;
size_t i, k = 5, N = 100000;
double * x = malloc (N * sizeof(double));
double * small = malloc (k * sizeof(double));
gsl_rng_env_setup();
T = gsl_rng_default;
r = gsl_rng_alloc (T);
for (i = 0; i < N; i++)
{
x[i] = gsl_rng_uniform(r);
}
gsl_sort_smallest (small, k, x, 1, N);
printf ("%d smallest values from %d\n", k, N);
for (i = 0; i < k; i++)
{
printf ("%d: %.18f\n", i, small[i]);
}
free (x);
free (small);
gsl_rng_free (r);
return 0;
}
|
The output lists the 5 smallest values, in ascending order,
| | $ ./a.out
5 smallest values from 100000
