For "n > 3", these are all "O(h^4)" (like Simpson's rule), but are integrals between the end points assuming the pdl gives values just at these centres: for such `functions', sumover is correct to O(h), but is the natural (and correct) choice for binned data, of course.

  $out = minimum_n_ind($pdl, 5);

See "and" for comments on what happens when all elements in the check are bad.

 ($mn, $mx) = minmax($pdl);

This routine does not broadcast over the dimensions of $pdl; it returns the minimum and maximum values of the whole ndarray. See "minmaximum" if this is not what is required. The two values are returned as Perl scalars, and therefore ignore whether the values are bad.

medover

  Signature: (a(n); [o]b(); [t]tmp(n))

Project via median to N-1 dimensions

This function reduces the dimensionality of an ndarray by one by taking the median along the 1st dimension.

By using xchg etc. it is possible to use any dimension.

 $y = medover($x);

 $spectrum = medover $image->transpose

By using xchg etc. it is possible to use any dimension.

 $y = oddmedover($x);

 $spectrum = oddmedover $image->transpose

The median is sometimes not a good choice as if the array has an even number of elements it lies half-way between the two middle values - thus it does not always correspond to a data value. The lower-odd median is just the lower of these two values and so it ALWAYS sits on an actual data value which is useful in some circumstances.

By using xchg etc. it is possible to use any dimension.

 $y = modeover($x);

 $spectrum = modeover $image->transpose

The mode is the single element most frequently found in a discrete data set.

It only makes sense for integer data types, since floating-point types are demoted to integer before the mode is calculated.

"modeover" treats BAD the same as any other value: if BAD is the most common element, the returned value is also BAD.

modeover does not process bad values. It will set the bad-value flag of all output ndarrays if the flag is set for any of the input ndarrays.

By using xchg etc. it is possible to use any dimension.

 $y = pctover($x);

 $spectrum = pctover $image->transpose

The specified percentile must be between 0.0 and 1.0. When the specified percentile falls between data points, the result is interpolated. Values outside the allowed range are clipped to 0.0 or 1.0 respectively. The algorithm implemented here is based on the interpolation variant described at <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Percentile> as used by Microsoft Excel and recommended by NIST.

pctover processes bad values. It will set the bad-value flag of all output ndarrays if the flag is set for any of the input ndarrays.

  Signature: (a(n); p(); [o]b(); [t]tmp(n))

Project via specified percentile to N-1 dimensions

This function reduces the dimensionality of an ndarray by one by taking the specified percentile along the 1st dimension.

By using xchg etc. it is possible to use any dimension.

 $y = oddpctover($x);

 $spectrum = oddpctover $image->transpose

oddpctover processes bad values. It will set the bad-value flag of all output ndarrays if the flag is set for any of the input ndarrays.

 $x = oddpct($data, $pct);

qsort

  Signature: (a(n); [o]b(n))

Quicksort a vector into ascending order.

 print qsort random(10);

 pdl> p $y
 [42 47 98 BAD 22 96 74 41 79 76 96 BAD 32 76 25 59 BAD 96 32 BAD]
 pdl> p qsort($y)
 [22 25 32 32 41 42 47 59 74 76 76 79 96 96 96 98 BAD BAD BAD BAD]

qsorti

  Signature: (a(n); indx [o]indx(n))

Quicksort a vector and return index of elements in ascending order.

 $ix = qsorti $x;
 print $x->index($ix); # Sorted list

Bad elements are moved to the end of the array:

 pdl> p $y
 [42 47 98 BAD 22 96 74 41 79 76 96 BAD 32 76 25 59 BAD 96 32 BAD]
 pdl> p $y->index( qsorti($y) )
 [22 25 32 32 41 42 47 59 74 76 76 79 96 96 96 98 BAD BAD BAD BAD]

qsortvec

  Signature: (a(n,m); [o]b(n,m))

Sort a list of vectors lexicographically.

The 0th dimension of the source ndarray is dimension in the vector; the 1st dimension is list order. Higher dimensions are broadcasted over.

 print qsortvec pdl([[1,2],[0,500],[2,3],[4,2],[3,4],[3,5]]);
 [
  [  0 500]
  [  1   2]
  [  2   3]
  [  3   4]
  [  3   5]
  [  4   2]
 ]

Vectors with bad components are moved to the end of the array:

  pdl> p $p = pdl("[0 0] [-100 0] [BAD 0] [100 0]")->qsortvec
  [
   [-100    0]
   [   0    0]
   [ 100    0]
   [ BAD    0]
  ]

qsortveci

  Signature: (a(n,m); indx [o]indx(m))

Sort a list of vectors lexicographically, returning the indices of the sorted vectors rather than the sorted list itself.

As with "qsortvec", the input PDL should be an NxM array containing M separate N-dimensional vectors. The return value is an integer M-PDL containing the M-indices of original array rows, in sorted order.

As with "qsortvec", the zeroth element of the vectors runs slowest in the sorted list.

Additional dimensions are broadcasted over: each plane is sorted separately, so qsortveci may be thought of as a collapse operator of sorts (groan).

Vectors with bad components are moved to the end of the array as for "qsortvec".
