    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/complex-float64-base-mul-add
```

</section>

<section class="usage">

## Usage

```javascript
var muladd = require( '@stdlib/complex-float64-base-mul-add' );
```

#### muladd( alpha, x, y )

Performs a multiply-add operation involving three double-precision complex floating-point numbers.

```javascript
var Complex128 = require( '@stdlib/complex-float64-ctor' );

var z1 = new Complex128( 5.0, 3.0 );
var z2 = new Complex128( -2.0, 1.0 );
var z3 = new Complex128( 7.0, -8.0 );

// Compute `alpha*x + y`:
var v = muladd( z1, z2, z3 );
// returns <Complex128>[ -6.0, -9.0 ]
```

The function supports the following parameters:

-   **alpha**: first [complex number][@stdlib/complex/float64/ctor].
-   **x**: second [complex number][@stdlib/complex/float64/ctor].
-   **y**: third [complex number][@stdlib/complex/float64/ctor].

#### muladd.assign( ar, ai, xr, xi, yr, yi, out, strideOut, offsetOut )

Performs a multiply-add operation involving three double-precision complex floating-point numbers and assigns the results to an output strided array.

```javascript
var Float64Array = require( '@stdlib/array-float64' );

var out = new Float64Array( 2 );
var v = muladd.assign( 5.0, 3.0, -2.0, 1.0, 7.0, -8.0, out, 1, 0 );
// returns <Float64Array>[ -6.0, -9.0 ]

var bool = ( out === v );
// returns true
```

The function supports the following parameters:

-   **ar**: real component of the first complex number.
-   **ai**: imaginary component of the first complex number.
-   **xr**: real component of the second complex number.
-   **xi**: imaginary component of the second complex number.
-   **yr**: real component of the third complex number.
-   **yi**: imaginary component of the third complex number.
-   **out**: output array.
-   **strideOut**: stride length for `out`.
-   **offsetOut**: starting index for `out`.

#### muladd.strided( alpha, sa, oa, x, sx, ox, y, sy, oy, out, so, oo )

Performs a multiply-add operation involving three double-precision complex floating-point numbers stored in real-valued strided array views and assigns results to a provided strided output array.

```javascript
var Float64Array = require( '@stdlib/array-float64' );

var z1 = new Float64Array( [ 5.0, 3.0 ] );
var z2 = new Float64Array( [ -2.0, 1.0 ] );
var z3 = new Float64Array( [ 7.0, -8.0 ] );
var out = new Float64Array( 2 );

var v = muladd.strided( z1, 1, 0, z2, 1, 0, z3, 1, 0, out, 1, 0 );
// returns <Float64Array>[ -6.0, -9.0 ]

var bool = ( out === v );
// returns true
```

The function supports the following parameters:

-   **alpha**: first complex number strided array view.
-   **sa**: stride length for `alpha`.
-   **oa**: starting index for `alpha`.
-   **x**: second complex number strided array view.
-   **sx**: stride length for `x`.
-   **ox**: starting index for `x`.
-   **y**: third complex number strided array view.
-   **sy**: stride length for `y`.
-   **oy**: starting index for `y`.
-   **out**: output array.
-   **so**: stride length for `out`.
-   **oo**: starting index for `out`.

### Usage

```c
#include "stdlib/complex/float64/base/mul_add.h"
```

#### stdlib_base_complex128_muladd( alpha, x, y )

Performs a multiply-add operation involving three double-precision complex floating-point numbers.

```c
#include "stdlib/complex/float64/ctor.h"
#include "stdlib/complex/float64/real.h"
#include "stdlib/complex/float64/imag.h"

stdlib_complex128_t z1 = stdlib_complex128( 5.0, 3.0 );
stdlib_complex128_t z2 = stdlib_complex128( -2.0, 1.0 );
stdlib_complex128_t z3 = stdlib_complex128( 7.0, -8.0 );

stdlib_complex128_t out = stdlib_base_complex128_muladd( z1, z2, z3 );

double re = stdlib_complex128_real( out );
// returns -6.0
