    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/math-strided-special-ahaversin-by
```

</section>

<section class="usage">

## Usage

```javascript
var ahaversinBy = require( '@stdlib/math-strided-special-ahaversin-by' );
```

#### ahaversinBy( N, x, strideX, y, strideY, clbk\[, thisArg] )

Computes the [inverse half-value versed sine][@stdlib/math/base/special/ahaversin] of each element retrieved from an input strided array `x` via a callback function and assigns each result to an element in an output strided array `y`.

```javascript
function accessor( v ) {
    return v;
}

var x = [ 0.0, 0.5, 1.0, 0.25, 0.75 ];
var y = [ 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0 ];

ahaversinBy( x.length, x, 1, y, 1, accessor );
// y => [ 0.0, ~1.571, ~3.142, ~1.047, ~2.094 ]
```

The function accepts the following arguments:

-   **N**: number of indexed elements.
-   **x**: input [`Array`][mdn-array], [`typed array`][mdn-typed-array], or an array-like object (excluding strings and functions).
-   **strideX**: index increment for `x`.
-   **y**: output [`Array`][mdn-array], [`typed array`][mdn-typed-array], or an array-like object (excluding strings and functions).
-   **strideY**: index increment for `y`.
-   **clbk**: callback function.
-   **thisArg**: execution context (_optional_).

The invoked callback function is provided six arguments:

-   **value**: input array element.
-   **idx**: iteration index (zero-based).
-   **xi**: input array strided index (`offsetX + idx*strideX`).
-   **yi**: output array strided index (`offsetY + idx*strideY`).
-   **x**: input array/collection.
-   **y**: output array/collection.

To set the callback execution context, provide a `thisArg`.

```javascript
function accessor( v ) {
    this.count += 1;
    return v;
}

var context = {
    'count': 0
};

var x = [ 0.0, 0.5, 1.0, 0.25, 0.75 ];
var y = [ 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0 ];

ahaversinBy( x.length, x, 1, y, 1, accessor, context );
// y => [ 0.0, ~1.571, ~3.142, ~1.047, ~2.094 ]

var cnt = context.count;
// returns 5
```

The `N` and `stride` parameters determine which elements in `x` and `y` are accessed at runtime. For example, to index every other value in `x` and to index the first `N` elements of `y` in reverse order,

```javascript
function accessor( v ) {
    return v;
}

var x = [ 0.0, 0.5, 1.0, 0.25, 0.75, 0.68 ];
var y = [ 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0 ];

ahaversinBy( 3, x, 2, y, -1, accessor );
// y => [ ~2.094, ~3.142, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0 ]
```

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

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

function accessor( v ) {
    return v;
}

// Initial arrays...
var x0 = new Float64Array( [ 0.0, 0.5, 1.0, 0.25, 0.75, 0.68 ] );
var y0 = new Float64Array( [ 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0 ] );

// Create offset views...
var x1 = new Float64Array( x0.buffer, x0.BYTES_PER_ELEMENT*1 ); // start at 2nd element
var y1 = new Float64Array( y0.buffer, y0.BYTES_PER_ELEMENT*3 ); // start at 4th element

ahaversinBy( 3, x1, -2, y1, 1, accessor );
// y0 => <Float64Array>[ 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, ~1.939, ~1.047, ~1.571 ]
```

#### ahaversinBy.ndarray( N, x, strideX, offsetX, y, strideY, offsetY, clbk\[, thisArg] )

Computes the [inverse half-value versed sine][@stdlib/math/base/special/ahaversin] of each element retrieved from an input strided array `x` via a callback function and assigns each result to an element in an output strided array `y` using alternative indexing semantics.

```javascript
function accessor( v ) {
    return v;
}

var x = [ 0.0, 0.5, 1.0, 0.25, 0.75 ];
var y = [ 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0 ];

ahaversinBy.ndarray( x.length, x, 1, 0, y, 1, 0, accessor );
// y => [ 0.0, ~1.571, ~3.142, ~1.047, ~2.094 ]
```

The function accepts the following additional arguments:

-   **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 `offsetX` and `offsetY` parameters support indexing semantics based on starting indices. For example, to index every other value in `x` starting from the second value and to index the last `N` elements in `y`,

```javascript
function accessor( v ) {
    return v;
}

var x = [ 0.0, 0.5, 1.0, 0.25, 0.75, 0.68 ];
var y = [ 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0 ];

ahaversinBy.ndarray( 3, x, 2, 1, y, -1, y.length-1, accessor );
// y => [ 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, ~1.939, ~1.047, ~1.571 ]
```

<section class="notes">

## Notes

-   If a provided callback function does not return any value (or equivalently, explicitly returns `undefined`), the value is **ignored**.

    ```javascript
    function accessor() {
        // No-op...
    }

    var x = [ 0.0, 0.5, 1.0, 0.25, 0.75 ];
    var y = [ 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0 ];

    ahaversinBy( x.length, x, 1, y, 1, accessor );
    // y => [ 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0 ]
    ```
