    About stdlib...
  </summary>
  <p>We believe in a future in which the web is a preferred environment for numerical computation. To help realize this future, we've built stdlib. stdlib is a standard library, with an emphasis on numerical and scientific computation, written in JavaScript (and C) for execution in browsers and in Node.js.</p>
  <p>The library is fully decomposable, being architected in such a way that you can swap out and mix and match APIs and functionality to cater to your exact preferences and use cases.</p>
  <p>When you use stdlib, you can be absolutely certain that you are using the most thorough, rigorous, well-written, studied, documented, tested, measured, and high-quality code out there.</p>
  <p>To join us in bringing numerical computing to the web, get started by checking us out on <a href="https://github.com/stdlib-js/stdlib">GitHub</a>, and please consider <a href="https://opencollective.com/stdlib">financially supporting stdlib</a>. We greatly appreciate your continued support!</p>

## Installation

```bash
npm install @stdlib/blas-sswap
```

</section>

<section class="usage">

## Usage

```javascript
var sswap = require( '@stdlib/blas-sswap' );
```

#### sswap( x, y\[, dim] )

Interchanges two single-precision floating-point vectors `x` and `y`.

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

var x = array( new Float32Array( [ 4.0, 2.0, -3.0, 5.0, -1.0 ] ) );
var y = array( new Float32Array( [ 2.0, 6.0, -1.0, -4.0, 8.0 ] ) );

sswap( x, y );

var xbuf = x.data;
// returns <Float32Array>[ 2.0, 6.0, -1.0, -4.0, 8.0 ]

var ybuf = y.data;
// returns <Float32Array>[ 4.0, 2.0, -3.0, 5.0, -1.0 ]
```

The function has the following parameters:

-   **x**: a non-zero-dimensional [`ndarray`][@stdlib/ndarray/ctor] whose underlying data type is `float32`. Must have the same shape as `y`.
-   **y**: a non-zero-dimensional [`ndarray`][@stdlib/ndarray/ctor] whose underlying data type is `float32`. Must have the same shape as `x`.
-   **dim**: dimension along which to interchange vectors. Must be a negative integer. Negative indices are resolved relative to the last array dimension, with the last dimension corresponding to `-1`. Default: `-1`.

For multi-dimensional input [`ndarrays`][@stdlib/ndarray/ctor], the function performs batched computation, such that the function interchanges each pair of vectors in `x` and `y` according to the specified dimension index.

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

var opts = {
    'shape': [ 2, 3 ]
};
var x = array( new Float32Array( [ 4.0, 2.0, -3.0, 5.0, -1.0, 3.0 ] ), opts );
var y = array( new Float32Array( [ 2.0, 6.0, -1.0, -4.0, 8.0, 2.0 ] ), opts );

var v1 = x.get( 0, 0 );
// returns 4.0

var v2 = y.get( 0, 0 );
// returns 2.0

sswap( x, y );

v1 = x.get( 0, 0 );
// returns 2.0

v2 = y.get( 0, 0 );
// returns 4.0
```

<section class="notes">

## Notes

-   Both input [`ndarrays`][@stdlib/ndarray/ctor] must have the same shape.
-   Negative indices are resolved relative to the last [`ndarray`][@stdlib/ndarray/ctor] dimension, with the last dimension corresponding to `-1`.
-   For multi-dimensional [`ndarrays`][@stdlib/ndarray/ctor], batched computation effectively means swapping all of `x` with all of `y`; however, the choice of `dim` will significantly affect performance. For best performance, specify a `dim` which best aligns with the [memory layout][@stdlib/ndarray/orders] of provided [`ndarrays`][@stdlib/ndarray/ctor].
-   `sswap()` provides a higher-level interface to the [BLAS][blas] level 1 function [`sswap`][@stdlib/blas/base/sswap].

```javascript
var discreteUniform = require( '@stdlib/random-array-discrete-uniform' );
var ndarray2array = require( '@stdlib/ndarray-to-array' );
var array = require( '@stdlib/ndarray-array' );
var sswap = require( '@stdlib/blas-sswap' );

var opts = {
    'dtype': 'float32'
};

var x = array( discreteUniform( 10, 0, 100, opts ), {
    'shape': [ 5, 2 ]
});
console.log( ndarray2array( x ) );

var y = array( discreteUniform( 10, 0, 10, opts ), {
    'shape': x.shape
});
console.log( ndarray2array( y ) );

sswap( x, y );
console.log( ndarray2array( x ) );
console.log( ndarray2array( y ) );
