Overview: Intel(R) Streaming SIMD Extensions

This section describes the C++ language-level features supporting the Intel® Streaming SIMD Extensions (Intel® SSE) in the Intel® C++ Compiler. These topics explain the following features of the intrinsics:

• Floating Point Intrinsics

• Arithmetic Operation Intrinsics

• Logical Operation Intrinsics

• Comparison Intrinsics

• Conversion Intrinsics

• Load Operations

• Set Operations

• Store Operations

• Cacheability Support

• Integer Intrinsics

• Intrinsics to Read and Write Registers

• Miscellaneous Intrinsics

The prototypes for SSE intrinsics are in the xmmintrin.h header file.

Note

You can also use the single ia32intrin.h header file for any IA-32 architecture-based intrinsics.
