feature request: add more array math

enki42ea

Is there any plans to add more array math features?  Obviously I can do the work myself but guessing it can be more efficient if done in more native code. Say:
Max
Min
Sum

It would be great if regressions (linear mostly) and fast fourier transforms can be added but guessing that is asking too much....

  • Min, max, and sum are done most efferently when the array is being built.  Lets say you have a really large array, and you want to find the min, and if you needed to find it after the array was built, going thru the array could trip the watchdog timer..  Same for max and sum.

    The same could be said for mean which does exist. Don't the cpu's on most garmins support SIMD which is why native could be much faster?

    Though I guess that is a good way to think about it.  Wish there was an easier way of having the last x number of samples (linked list version of an array vs a block of memory) as I'm sure:
    myArray.slive(1,null)
    myarray.add(newNumber)
    each time a new number comes in isn't the most efficient
