Creates a simd or simd_mask type with a different element type or size. The new type likely uses an ABI tag type different from V::abi_type.
1) Changes the element type to 
T and keeps the size unchanged.2) Changes the size to 
N and keeps the element type unchanged.Template parameters
| T | - | the new element type; an arithmetic type other than bool | 
| N | - | the new number of elements | 
| V | - | a simd or simd_mask type |

Example
Run this code
#include <experimental/simd> #include <iostream> namespace stdx = std::experimental; using floatv = stdx::native_simd<float>; // use double precision internally floatv dp(floatv x) { using doublev = stdx::rebind_simd_t<double, floatv>; return stdx::static_simd_cast<floatv>(stdx::simd_cast<doublev>(x) - 1.234); } template<class T> stdx::resize_simd_t<T::size() / 2, T> partial_reduction(T x) { auto [lo, hi] = stdx::split<stdx::resize_simd_t<T::size() / 2, T>>(x); return lo + hi; } int main() { floatv x([](auto i) { return 1.234f + std::numeric_limits<float>::epsilon() * i; }); x = dp(x); const auto y = partial_reduction(x); for (unsigned i = 0; i < y.size(); ++i) std::cout << y[i] << ' '; std::cout << '\n'; }
Possible output:
