I am trying to write a function that operates on an array of floats. I was wondering if someone had an example of say just a function to take an array and return the sum of it's elements. I guess the sticking point is what type type do I use? I tried _float8, but that didn't work... Thanks for any help you can give me, and again sorry to bother you..
