trueno 0.17.1

High-performance SIMD compute library with GPU support for matrix operations
Documentation
//! Vector norm operations
//!
//! This module provides vector norm calculations:
//! - `norm_l1()` - L1 norm (Manhattan norm)
//! - `norm_l2()` - L2 norm (Euclidean norm)
//! - `norm_linf()` - L∞ norm (infinity norm / max norm)
//!
//! All three norms share the same `unsafe fn(&[f32]) -> f32` backend
//! signature, so dispatch is handled by the crate-level
//! [`dispatch_reduction!`] macro -- no per-module dispatch struct needed.
