vec_neg

Purpose

Returns a vector containing the negated value of the corresponding elements in the given vector.

Note: For vector signed long long, this function emulates the operation.

Syntax

d=vec_neg(a)

Result and argument types

The following table describes the types of the returned value and the function arguments.

Result value

This function multiplies the value of each element in the given vector by -1.0 and then assigns the result to the corresponding elements in the result vector.
