@ -25,4 +25,4 @@ SIMD has a few special vocabulary terms you should know:
* **Vertical:** When an operation is "vertical", each lane processes individually without regard to the other lanes in the same vector. For example, a "vertical add" between two vectors would add lane 0 in `a` with lane 0 in `b`, with the total in lane 0 of `out`, and then the same thing for lanes 1, 2, etc. Most SIMD operations are vertical operations, so if your problem is a vertical problem then you can probably solve it with SIMD.
* **Horizontal:** When an operation is "horizontal", the lanes within a single vector interact in some way. A "horizontal add" might add up lane 0 of `a` with lane 1 of `a`, producing the output into lane 0 of `out`.
* **Horizontal:** When an operation is "horizontal", the lanes within a single vector interact in some way. A "horizontal add" might add up lane 0 of `a` with lane 1 of `a`, with the total in lane 0 of `out`.
