Layout (column-major or row-major) code generator uses for array data

Model Configuration Pane: Code Generation / Interface

Description

The Array layout parameter specifies the layout that the code generator uses for array data. The layout can be column-major or row-major.

Settings

Column-major (default) | Row-major

Column-major

Generates code in column-major array layout. For example, consider matrix A, which is a 4x3 matrix:

A = 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12

In column-major array layout, the elements of the columns are contiguous in memory. A is represented in the generated code as:

1 4 7 10 2 5 8 11 3 6 9 12

Row-major

Generates code in row-major array layout. For example, for matrix A, in row-major array layout, the elements of the rows are contiguous. A is represented in the generated code as:

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12

Select parameter Use algorithms optimized for row-major array layout to enable efficient row-major algorithms.
