Compute the next power of 2.
- Usage
npow2(x)
- x
- a scalar, vector or matrix
- Result
- If x is a scalar, the result is the integer number N, which is the smallest value with
N=2M
(M is an integer greater/equal 0) and N≥x. - If x is a vector or a matrix, the function returns
npow2(nrow(x))
. - See also
- fft, ifft, command INT, command NUM
Example:
#n := eval npow2(1000) // #n = 1024 = 2^10
