SIMD.Bool64x2

Note: The Bool64x2 type is currently not part of the SIMD specification draft.

The SIMD.Bool64x2 data type is a 128-bit vector divided into 2 lanes storing boolean values.

Syntax

SIMD.Bool64x2(x, y);

Parameters

x Optional: A boolean specifying the value of the first lane. Defaults to false.
y Optional: An boolean specifying the value of the second lane. Defaults to false.

Constructor functions

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

SIMD.Bool64x2.splat(): Creates a Bool64x2 with all lanes set to a given value.

Note: SIMD types don't work with new, as SIMD values are no "boxed" objects (comparable to String(s) vs. new String(s), which creates a String object).

var v = new SIMD.Bool64x2(true, false); 
// TypeError: SIMD.Bool64x2 is not a constructor
var w = new SIMD.Bool64x2.splat(true); 
// TypeError: SIMD.Bool64x2.splat is not a constructor

Instead, you just write:

var v = SIMD.Bool64x2(true, false); 
var w = SIMD.Boolt64x2.splat(true);

Operations

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

Checking SIMD types

SIMD.Bool64x2.check(): Returns a new Bool64x2 if the parameter is a valid Bool64x2 data type. Throws a TypeError otherwise.

Accessing and mutating lanes

SIMD.Bool64x2.extractLane(): Returns the value of the given lane.
SIMD.Bool64x2.replaceLane(): Returns a new Bool64x2 with the given lane value replaced.

Boolean operations

SIMD.Bool64x2.allTrue(): Checks if all lanes hold a true value.
SIMD.Bool64x2.anyTrue(): Checks if any of the lanes hold a true value.

Bitwise logical operations

SIMD.Bool64x2.and(): Returns a new Bool64x2 with the logical AND of the lane values (a & b).
SIMD.Bool64x2.or(): Returns a new Bool64x2 with the logical OR of the lane values (a | b).
SIMD.Bool64x2.xor(): Returns a new Bool64x2 with the logical XOR of the lane values (a ^ b).
SIMD.Bool64x2.not(): Returns a new Bool64x2 with the logical NOT of the lane values (~a).

SIMD prototype

The following methods and properties are installed on the SIMD.Bool64x2.prototype.

SIMD.Bool64x2.prototype.constructor: Specifies the function that creates a SIMD object's prototype.
SIMD.Bool64x2.prototype.toLocaleString(): Returns a localized string representing the SIMD type and its elements. Overrides the Object.prototype.toLocaleString() method.
SIMD.Bool64x2.prototype.toString(): Returns a string representing the SIMD type and its elements. Overrides the Object.prototype.toString() method.
SIMD.Bool64x2.prototype.valueOf(): Returns the primitive value of a SIMD object.
SIMD.Bool64x2.prototype.toSource(): Returns a string representing the source code of the object. Overrides the Object.prototype.toSource() method.

Examples

Constructing a Bool64x2

SIMD.Bool64x2(true, false); // Bool64x2[true, false]
SIMD.Bool64x2(1);           // Bool64x2[true, false]
SIMD.Bool64x2();            // Bool64x2[false, false]

Specifications

The Bool64x2 type is currently not part of the SIMD specification draft.
