<h3 class="section">12.4 Computing the rank</h3>

<p>The <em>rank</em> of an element is its order in the sorted data.  The rank
is the inverse of the index permutation, <var>p</var>.  It can be computed
using the following algorithm,
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example">for (i = 0; i &lt; p-&gt;size; i++) 
{
    size_t pi = p-&gt;data[i];
    rank-&gt;data[pi] = i;
}
</pre></div>

<p>This can be computed directly from the function
<code>gsl_permutation_inverse(rank,p)</code>.
</p>
<p>The following function will print the rank of each element of the vector
<var>v</var>,
</p>
<div class="example">
<pre class="example">void
print_rank (gsl_vector * v)
{
  size_t i;
  size_t n = v-&gt;size;
  gsl_permutation * perm = gsl_permutation_alloc(n);
  gsl_permutation * rank = gsl_permutation_alloc(n);

  gsl_sort_vector_index (perm, v);
  gsl_permutation_inverse (rank, perm);

  for (i = 0; i &lt; n; i++)
   {
    double vi = gsl_vector_get(v, i);
    printf (&quot;element = %d, value = %g, rank = %d\n&quot;,
             i, vi, rank-&gt;data[i]);
   }

  gsl_permutation_free (perm);
  gsl_permutation_free (rank);
}
</pre></div>
