Description#

Copy-assigns value to the first n elements in the range starting at first (overloads 1,2) or the first n elements in view (overloads 3,4).

Parameters and Requirements#

  • exespace, first, view, value: same as in fill

  • label:

    • used to name the implementation kernels for debugging purposes

    • for 1, the default string is: “Kokkos::fill_n_iterator_api_default”

    • for 3, the default string is: “Kokkos::fill_n_view_api_default”

  • n:

    • number of elements to modify (must be non-negative)

Return#

If n > 0, returns an iterator to the element after the last element assigned.

Otherwise, it returns first (for 1,2) or Kokkos::begin(view) (for 3,4).

Example#

namespace KE = Kokkos::Experimental;
Kokkos::View<double*> a("a", 13);
// do something with a
// ...

const double newValue{4};
KE::fill_n(Kokkos::DefaultExecutionSpace(), KE::begin(a), 10, newValue);

// passing the view directly
KE::fill_n(Kokkos::DefaultExecutionSpace(), a, 10, newValue);

// explicitly set execution space (assuming active)
KE::fill_n(Kokkos::OpenMP(), KE::begin(a), 10, newValue);
