If used in HA or LA mode, linearfrac sets the VM status code to ``oneapi::mkl::vm::status::accuracy_warning``. Correctness is guaranteed within the threshold limitations defined for each input parameter (see the table below); otherwise, the behavior is unspecified.   .. container:: tablenoborder .. list-table:: :header-rows: 1 * - Threshold Limitations on Input Parameters * - ``2EMIN/2≤ |scalea| ≤ 2(EMAX-2)/2`` * - ``2EMIN/2≤ |scaleb| ≤ 2(EMAX-2)/2`` * - ``|shifta| ≤ 2EMAX-2`` * - ``|shiftb| ≤ 2EMAX-2`` * - ``2EMIN/2≤a[i] ≤ 2(EMAX-2)/2`` * - ``2EMIN/2≤b[i] ≤ 2(EMAX-2)/2`` * - ``a[i] ≠ - (shifta/scalea)*(1-δ1), |δ1| ≤ 21-(p-1)/2`` * - ``b[i] ≠ - (shiftb/scaleb)*(1-δ2), |δ2| ≤ 21-(p-1)/2`` ``EMIN``\ and ``EMAX`` are the minimum and maximum exponents and ``p`` is the number of significant bits (precision) for the corresponding data type according to the ANSI/IEEE Standard 754-2008 ([:ref:`onemkl_vm_bibliography`]): - for single precision\ ``EMIN`` = -126, ``EMAX`` = 127, ``p`` = 24 - for double precision\ ``EMIN`` = -1022, ``EMAX`` = 1023, ``p`` = 53 The thresholds become less strict for common cases with scalea=0 and/or scaleb=0: - ifscalea=0, there are no limitations for the values of ``a[i]`` and shifta. - ifscaleb=0, there are no limitations for the values of ``b[i]`` and shiftb. .. container:: section .. rubric:: Input Parameters :class: sectiontitle Buffer API: exec_queue The queue where the routine should be executed. n Specifies the number of elements to be calculated. a The buffer ``a`` containing 1st input vector of size ``n``. b The buffer ``b`` containing 2nd input vector of size ``n``. scalea Constant value for scaling multipliers of vector ``a`` shifta Constant value for shifting addend of vector ``a`` scaleb Constant value for scaling multipliers of vector ``b`` shiftb Constant value for shifting addend of vector ``b`` mode Overrides the global VM mode setting for this function call.
