    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>

> Simultaneously sort two single-precision floating-point strided arrays based on the sort order of the first array using insertion sort.

<section class="installation">

## Installation

```bash
npm install @stdlib/blas-ext-base-ssort2ins
```

</section>

<section class="usage">

## Usage

```javascript
var ssort2ins = require( '@stdlib/blas-ext-base-ssort2ins' );
```

#### ssort2ins( N, order, x, strideX, y, strideY )

Simultaneously sorts two single-precision floating-point strided arrays based on the sort order of the first array using insertion sort.

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

var x = new Float32Array( [ 1.0, -2.0, 3.0, -4.0 ] );
var y = new Float32Array( [ 0.0, 1.0, 2.0, 3.0 ] );

ssort2ins( x.length, 1.0, x, 1, y, 1 );

console.log( x );
// => <Float32Array>[ -4.0, -2.0, 1.0, 3.0 ]

console.log( y );
// => <Float32Array>[ 3.0, 1.0, 0.0, 2.0 ]
```

The function has the following parameters:

-   **N**: number of indexed elements.
-   **order**: sort order. If `order < 0.0`, the input strided array `x` is sorted in **decreasing** order. If `order > 0.0`, the input strided array `x` is sorted in **increasing** order. If `order == 0.0`, the input strided arrays are left unchanged.
-   **x**: first input [`Float32Array`][@stdlib/array/float32].
-   **strideX**: stride length for `x`.
-   **y**: second input [`Float32Array`][@stdlib/array/float32].
-   **strideY**: stride length for `y`.

The `N` and stride parameters determine which elements in the strided arrays are accessed at runtime. For example, to sort every other element:

```javascript
var Float32Array = require( '@stdlib/array-float32' );
var x = new Float32Array( [ 1.0, -2.0, 3.0, -4.0 ] );
var y = new Float32Array( [ 0.0, 1.0, 2.0, 3.0 ] );

ssort2ins( 2, -1.0, x, 2, y, 2 );

console.log( x );
// => <Float32Array>[ 3.0, -2.0, 1.0, -4.0 ]

console.log( y );
// => <Float32Array>[ 2.0, 1.0, 0.0, 3.0 ]
```

Note that indexing is relative to the first index. To introduce an offset, use [`typed array`][mdn-typed-array] views.

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

// Initial arrays...
var x0 = new Float32Array( [ 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0 ] );
var y0 = new Float32Array( [ 0.0, 1.0, 2.0, 3.0 ] );

// Create offset views...
var x1 = new Float32Array( x0.buffer, x0.BYTES_PER_ELEMENT*1 ); // start at 2nd element
var y1 = new Float32Array( y0.buffer, y0.BYTES_PER_ELEMENT*1 ); // start at 2nd element

// Sort every other element...
ssort2ins( 2, -1.0, x1, 2, y1, 2 );

console.log( x0 );
// => <Float32Array>[ 1.0, 4.0, 3.0, 2.0 ]

console.log( y0 );
// => <Float32Array>[ 0.0, 3.0, 2.0, 1.0 ]
```

#### ssort2ins.ndarray( N, order, x, strideX, offsetX, y, strideY, offsetY )

Simultaneously sorts two single-precision floating-point strided arrays based on the sort order of the first array the strided array using insertion sort and alternative indexing semantics.

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

var x = new Float32Array( [ 1.0, -2.0, 3.0, -4.0 ] );
var y = new Float32Array( [ 0.0, 1.0, 2.0, 3.0 ] );

ssort2ins.ndarray( x.length, 1.0, x, 1, 0, y, 1, 0 );

console.log( x );
// => <Float32Array>[ -4.0, -2.0, 1.0, 3.0 ]

console.log( y );
// => <Float32Array>[ 3.0, 1.0, 0.0, 2.0 ]
```

The function has the following additional parameters:

-   **offsetX**: starting index for `x`.
-   **offsetY**: starting index for `y`.

While [`typed array`][mdn-typed-array] views mandate a view offset based on the underlying buffer, the offset parameters support indexing semantics based on starting indices. For example, to access only the last three elements:

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

var x = new Float32Array( [ 1.0, -2.0, 3.0, -4.0, 5.0, -6.0 ] );
var y = new Float32Array( [ 0.0, 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, 5.0 ] );

ssort2ins.ndarray( 3, 1.0, x, 1, x.length-3, y, 1, y.length-3 );

console.log( x );
// => <Float32Array>[ 1.0, -2.0, 3.0, -6.0, -4.0, 5.0 ]

console.log( y );
// => <Float32Array>[ 0.0, 1.0, 2.0, 5.0, 3.0, 4.0 ]
```

## Notes

-   If `N <= 0` or `order == 0.0`, both functions leave `x` and `y` unchanged.
-   The algorithm distinguishes between `-0` and `+0`. When sorted in increasing order, `-0` is sorted before `+0`. When sorted in decreasing order, `-0` is sorted after `+0`.
-   The algorithm sorts `NaN` values to the end. When sorted in increasing order, `NaN` values are sorted last. When sorted in decreasing order, `NaN` values are sorted first.
-   The algorithm has space complexity `O(1)` and worst case time complexity `O(N^2)`.
-   The algorithm is efficient for **small** strided arrays (typically `N <= 20`) and is particularly efficient for sorting strided arrays which are already substantially sorted.
-   The algorithm is **stable**, meaning that the algorithm does **not** change the order of strided array elements which are equal or equivalent (e.g., `NaN` values).
-   The input strided arrays are sorted **in-place** (i.e., the input strided arrays are **mutated**).

```

#### stdlib_strided_ssort2ins( N, order, \*X, strideX, \*Y, strideY )

Simultaneously sorts two single-precision floating-point strided arrays based on the sort order of the first array using insertion sort.

```c
float x[] = { 1.0f, -2.0f, 3.0f, -4.0f };
float y[] = { 0.0f, 1.0f, 2.0f, 3.0f };

stdlib_strided_ssort2ins( 4, 1.0f, x, 1, y, 1 );

The function accepts the following arguments:

-   **N**: `[in] CBLAS_INT` number of indexed elements.
-   **order**: `[in] float` sort order. If `order < 0.0`, the input strided array `X` is sorted in **decreasing** order. If `order > 0.0`, the input strided array `X` is sorted in **increasing** order. If `order == 0.0`, the input strided arrays are left unchanged.
-   **X**: `[inout] float*` first input array.
-   **strideX**: `[in] CBLAS_INT` stride length for `X`.
-   **Y**: `[inout] float*` second input array.
-   **strideY**: `[in] CBLAS_INT` stride length for `Y`.

```c
stdlib_strided_ssort2ins( const CBLAS_INT N, const float order, float *X, const CBLAS_INT strideX, float *Y, const CBLAS_INT strideY );
