# accelerate

Bindings to Apple's `Accelerate.framework`: pre-tuned CPU numerics that already ship in every macOS binary. This is the "no GPU available" fallback path for matmul, matvec, dot, and axpy, and the reference implementation when GPU results need checking.

Two sub-modules:

- `accelerate/cblas` — BLAS Level 1 / 2 / 3 (`cblas_sdot`, `cblas_ddot`, `cblas_saxpy`, `cblas_daxpy`, `cblas_sscal`, `cblas_sgemv`, `cblas_dgemv`, `cblas_sgemm`, `cblas_dgemm`, and more). Layout and transpose are passed as `i32` flags read from the `CblasRowMajor()` / `CblasColMajor()` and `CblasNoTrans()` / `CblasTrans()` / `CblasConjTrans()` helpers.
- `accelerate/v_dsp` — element-wise operations and reductions: `vDSP_vadd`, `vDSP_vmul`, `vDSP_vsmul`, `vDSP_dotpr`, `vDSP_meanv`, `vDSP_maxv`, and their `D`-suffixed (f64) variants (`vDSP_vaddD`, and so on).

```cplus
import "accelerate/cblas" as cblas;

let x: [f32; 3] = [1.0f32, 2.0f32, 3.0f32];
let y: [f32; 3] = [4.0f32, 5.0f32, 6.0f32];
let dot: f32 = cblas::cblas_sdot(
    3 as i32,
    #addr_of(x) as *f32, 1 as i32,
    #addr_of(y) as *f32, 1 as i32,
);   // 32.0
```
