S-Lang includes many intrinsic functions that operate on arrays. The
additional functions described here are defined in
arrayfuns.sl.
Reverse the elements of a 1-d array
Array_Type reverse (Array_Type A)
The reverse function reverses the elements of a 1-d array and
returns the result.
shift
Shift the elements of a 1-d array
Array_Type shift (Array_Type A, Int_Type n)
The shift function shifts the elements of an array by a specified amount
and returns the result. If n is positive, the ith element of the array
will be shifted to the position i-n of the array. Elements for
which i-n is less than 0 will be moved to the end of the array.
A = [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9];
B = shift (A, 3); % ==> B = [4,5,6,7,8,9,1,2,3];
C = shift (A, -1); % ==> C = [9,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8];
It many ways rotate would be a better name for this function.
reverse, transpose
