MaxMin2D

AnalysisLibErrType MaxMin2D (void *inputArray, ssize_t numberOfRows, ssize_t numberOfColumns, double *maximumValue, ssize_t *maximumRowIndex, ssize_t *maximumColumnIndex, double *minimumValue, ssize_t *minimumRowIndex, ssize_t *minimumColumnIndex);

Purpose

Finds the maximum and the minimum values in the 2D input array and the their locations in the array. If there are multiple instances of the maximum and/or minimum values, MaxMin2D returns the location of the first occurrence. If all the elements in the 2D input array are NaNs, MaxMin2D returns -1 for the row index and column index of the maximum and minimum values.

MaxMin2D scans the inputArray array by rows.

The following example uses the MaxMin2D function.

double inputData[10][10];
double maxValue, minValue;
int maxRowIndex, maxColumnIndex, minRowIndex, minColumnIndex;
int i, j, numRows, numCols;
AnalysisLibErrType status;

numRows = 10;
numCols = 10;

/* Use a For loop to generate a 2D array of random numbers between 0.0 and 1.0 */
for (j = 0; j < 10; j++)

for (i = 0; i < 10; i++)

inputData[i][j] = Random(0.0, 1.0);

status = MaxMin2D(inputData, numRows, numCols, &maxValue, &maxRowIndex, &maxColumnIndex, &minValue, &minRowIndex, &minColumnIndex);

Parameters

Input
Name Type Description
inputArray void * Input array whose maximum and minimum values are determined. This array must be an array of doubles.
numberOfRows ssize_t Number of rows used to determine the maximum and minimum values.
numberOfColumns ssize_t Number of columns used to determine the maximum and minimum values.
Output
Name Type Description
maximumValue double Maximum value found in inputArray.
maximumRowIndex ssize_t Row index of the maximum value found in inputArray.
maximumColumnIndex ssize_t Column index of the maximum value found in inputArray.
minimumValue double Minimum value found in the inputArray.
minimumRowIndex ssize_t Row index of the minimum value found in inputArray.
minimumColumnIndex ssize_t Column index of the minimum value found in inputArray.

Return Value

Name Type Description
status AnalysisLibErrType A value that specifies the type of error that occurred. Refer to analysis.h for definitions of these constants.
