## Usage

<!-- eslint-disable id-length -->

```javascript
var sindexOfGreaterThanEqualSorted = require( '@stdlib/blas/ext/base/sindex-of-greater-than-equal-sorted' );
```

#### sindexOfGreaterThanEqualSorted( N, searchElement, x, strideX )

Returns the index of the first element in a sorted single-precision floating-point strided array which is greater than or equal to a specified search element.

<!-- eslint-disable id-length -->

```javascript
var Float32Array = require( '@stdlib/array/float32' );

var x = new Float32Array( [ 1.0, 2.0, 2.0, 3.0 ] );

var idx = sindexOfGreaterThanEqualSorted( x.length, 2.0, x, 1 );
// returns 1

x = new Float32Array( [ 3.0, 2.0, 2.0, 1.0 ] );

idx = sindexOfGreaterThanEqualSorted( x.length, 2.0, x, 1 );
// returns 0
```

The function has the following parameters:

- **N**: number of indexed elements.
- **searchElement**: search element.
- **x**: sorted input [`Float32Array`][@stdlib/array/float32].
- **strideX**: stride length.

If the function is unable to find an element which is greater than or equal to a specified search element, the function returns `-1`.

<!-- eslint-disable id-length -->

```javascript
var Float32Array = require( '@stdlib/array/float32' );

var x = new Float32Array( [ 1.0, 2.0, 2.0, 3.0 ] );

var idx = sindexOfGreaterThanEqualSorted( x.length, 4.0, x, 1 );
// returns -1
```

The `N` and stride parameters determine which elements in the strided array are accessed at runtime. For example, to search every other element:

<!-- eslint-disable id-length -->

```javascript
var Float32Array = require( '@stdlib/array/float32' );

var x = new Float32Array( [ 1.0, 9.0, 2.0, 9.0, 3.0, 9.0 ] );

var idx = sindexOfGreaterThanEqualSorted( 3, 2.0, x, 2 );
// returns 1
```

Note that indexing is relative to the first index. To introduce an offset, use [`typed array`][mdn-typed-array] views.

<!-- eslint-disable id-length -->

```javascript
var Float32Array = require( '@stdlib/array/float32' );

// Initial array:
var x0 = new Float32Array( [ 0.0, 1.0, 9.0, 2.0, 9.0, 3.0 ] );

// Create an offset view:
var x1 = new Float32Array( x0.buffer, x0.BYTES_PER_ELEMENT*1 ); // start at 2nd element

// Find index:
var idx = sindexOfGreaterThanEqualSorted( 3, 2.0, x1, 2 );
// returns 1
```

#### sindexOfGreaterThanEqualSorted.ndarray( N, searchElement, x, strideX, offsetX )

Returns the index of the first element in a sorted single-precision floating-point strided array which is greater than or equal to a specified search element using alternative indexing semantics.

<!-- eslint-disable id-length -->

```javascript
var Float32Array = require( '@stdlib/array/float32' );

var x = new Float32Array( [ 1.0, 2.0, 2.0, 3.0 ] );

var idx = sindexOfGreaterThanEqualSorted.ndarray( x.length, 2.0, x, 1, 0 );
// returns 1
```

The function has the following additional parameters:

- **offsetX**: starting index.

While [`typed array`][mdn-typed-array] views mandate a view offset based on the underlying buffer, the offset parameter supports indexing semantics based on a starting index. For example, to access only the last three elements of the strided array:

<!-- eslint-disable id-length -->

```javascript
var Float32Array = require( '@stdlib/array/float32' );

var x = new Float32Array( [ 9.0, 9.0, 9.0, 1.0, 2.0, 3.0 ] );

var idx = sindexOfGreaterThanEqualSorted.ndarray( 3, 2.0, x, 1, x.length-3 );
// returns 1
```

<section class="notes">

## Notes

- The input strided array must be sorted in either **strictly** ascending or descending order.
- If `N <= 0`, both functions return `-1`.
- When comparing elements, both functions use the less-than-or-equal-to operator `<=`. As a consequence, comparisons involving `NaN` always evaluate to `false`, and `-0` and `+0` are considered the same.

### Usage

```c
#include "stdlib/blas/ext/base/sindex_of_greater_than_equal_sorted.h"
```

<!-- lint disable maximum-heading-length -->

#### stdlib_strided_sindex_of_greater_than_equal_sorted( N, searchElement, \*X, strideX )

<!-- lint enable maximum-heading-length -->

Returns the index of the first element in a sorted single-precision floating-point strided array which is greater than or equal to a specified search element.

```c
const float x[] = { 1.0f, 2.0f, 2.0f, 3.0f };

int idx = stdlib_strided_sindex_of_greater_than_equal_sorted( 4, 2.0f, x, 1 );
// returns 1

const float y[] = { 3.0f, 2.0f, 2.0f, 1.0f };

idx = stdlib_strided_sindex_of_greater_than_equal_sorted( 4, 2.0f, y, 1 );
// returns 0
```

The function accepts the following arguments:

- **N**: `[in] CBLAS_INT` number of indexed elements.
- **searchElement**: `[in] float` search element.
- **X**: `[in] float*` sorted input array.
- **strideX**: `[in] CBLAS_INT` stride length.

```c
CBLAS_INT stdlib_strided_sindex_of_greater_than_equal_sorted( const CBLAS_INT N, const float searchElement, const float *X, const CBLAS_INT strideX );
```
