Maximum and Minimum values
-
gsl_stats_max(data)
This function returns the maximum value in data. The maximum value is defined
as the value of the element \(x_i\) which satisfies \(x_i \ge x_j\)
for all \(j\).
If you want instead to find the element with the largest absolute
magnitude you will need to apply fabs() or abs() to your data
before calling this function.
-
gsl_stats_min(data)
This function returns the minimum value in data. The minimum value is defined
as the value of the element \(x_i\) which satisfies \(x_i \le x_j\)
for all \(j\).
If you want instead to find the element with the smallest absolute
magnitude you will need to apply fabs() or abs() to your data
before calling this function.
-
gsl_stats_max_index(data)
This function returns the index of the maximum value in data. The maximum value is
defined as the value of the element \(x_i\) which satisfies
\(x_i \ge x_j\)
for all \(j\). When there are several equal maximum
elements then the first one is chosen.
-
gsl_stats_min_index(data)
This function returns the index of the minimum value in data. The minimum value is
defined as the value of the element \(x_i\) which satisfies
\(x_i \le x_j\)
for all \(j\). When there are several equal maximum
elements then the first one is chosen.
