Detailed Description

Return the cumulative sum of the proportions of the exponential of the input array, optionally in the backward direction and, optionally reverse the output cumulative sum upon return.

The returned array is normalized such that all of its elements fall in the range \([0,1]\).
All operations are performed while avoiding arithmetic overflow.

Parameters
[out]cumPropExp: The output array of the same size, shape, type, and kind as the input array containing the cumulative sum of proportions of array in the specified direction.
(optional, if missing, the result will be written to the input/output argument array.)
[in,out]array: The contiguous array of shape (:) of type real of kind any supported by the processor (e.g., RK, RK32, RK64, or RK128) whose cumulative proportional sum will have to be computed.
  • If cumPropExp is present, then array has intent(in).
  • If cumPropExp is missing, then array has intent(inout).
    On output, the contents of array will be completely overwritten by the computed cumPropExp.
[in]maxArray: The input scalar of the same type and kind as the input array representing the maximum value in array (i.e., maxArray = maxval(array)).
[in]control: The input scalar object that can be,
  1. the constant sequence or equivalently, an object of type sequence_type.
    Specifying this value forces the algorithm to skip runtime underflow checks.
    This means all exponentiation operations will be carried out for each element.
    Specifying this value can aid runtime efficiency when the divisions of none or very few of the elements of array (for example, half or less) by maxArray causes underflow.
    In such cases, the potentially expensive runtime branching is avoided at the cost of performing a very few exponentiation operations.
    The typical cost of an if-branch is 7-20 CPU cycles on the contemporary architecture while exponentiation typically costs ~200 CPU cycles.
    See the relevant benchmark here.
  2. the constant selection or equivalently, an object of type selection_type.
    Enabling this option can aid runtime efficiency when the division of a significant number of elements of array (for example, half or more) by maxArray causes underflow.
    In such cases, the exponentiation is avoided if control = selection` leading to faster runtime by avoiding exponentiation since it is highly expensive (on the order of ~200 CPU cycles).
    See the relevant benchmark here.
[in]direction: The input scalar object that can be,
  1. the constant forward or equivalently, an object of type forward_type, implying that the output cumulative sum has be computed from the first element to the last element of the input array.
    even though the increments will still be written from the first element of cumPropExp to the last.
  2. the constant backward or equivalently, an object of type backward_type, implying that the output cumulative sum has be computed from the last element to the first element of the input array even though the increments will still be written from the first element of cumPropExp to the last.
(optional, default = sequence. It must be present if and only if the input argument action is also present.)
[in]action: The input scalar object that can be,
  1. the constant nothing or equivalently, an object of type nothing_type, implying no action to be performed on the elements of the output cumPropExp will have be reversed upon return.
  2. the constant reverse or equivalently, an object of type reverse_type, implying that the order of the elements of the output cumPropExp will have be reversed upon return, such that its last element becomes the first.
(optional, default = nothing. It must be present if and only if the input argument direction is also present.)

Warning
The condition 0 < size(array) must hold for the corresponding arguments.
The condition maxArray == maxval(array) must hold for the corresponding arguments.
The condition size(array) == size(cumPropExp) must hold for the corresponding arguments.
These conditions are verified only if the library is built with the preprocessor macro CHECK_ENABLED=1.
The pure procedure(s) documented herein become impure when the ParaMonte library is compiled with preprocessor macro CHECK_ENABLED=1.
By default, these procedures are pure in release build and impure in debug and testing builds.
Note
The functionalities of the procedures under this generic interface,

Visualization of the benchmark output

Benchmark moral
  1. If the input array has many (half the size of array or more) elements whose division by the maxval(array) causes underflow, then setting control = selection when calling setCumPropExp will likely result in a faster runtime.
    Conversely, if the divisions are not expected to cause any or too many underflows, then set control = selection to improve cache coherence and runtime performance (at the expense of occasional expensive but redundant exponentiations).
  2. If the input array size is less than 10-20 elements and setCumPropExp is to be called billions of times, then it would make sense to manually inline the procedure implementation in your code as procedure call and processing of optional arguments will have a non-negligible performance overhead.
Test:
test_pm_mathCumPropExp
Todo:
Low Priority: This generic interface can be expanded to include input arrays with Weights.
