## Usage

```javascript
var sub2ind = require( '@stdlib/ndarray/sub2ind' );
```

#### sub2ind( shape, ...subscripts\[, options] )

Converts subscripts to a linear index.

```javascript
var shape = [ 2, 2 ];

var idx = sub2ind( shape, 1, 0 );
// returns 2
```

The function supports the following `options`:

-   `mode`: specifies how to handle subscripts which exceed array dimensions. The following modes are supported:

    -   `throw`: specifies that the function should throw an error when a subscript exceeds array dimensions.
    -   `wrap`: specifies that the function should wrap around subscripts exceeding array dimensions using modulo arithmetic.
    -   `clamp`: specifies that the function should set subscripts exceeding array dimensions to either `0` (minimum index) or the maximum index along a particular dimension.

    If provided a `mode` array, each array element corresponds to a dimension. If provided fewer modes than dimensions, the function reuses modes using modulo arithmetic. Default: `[ 'throw' ]`.

-   `order`: specifies whether an array is `row-major` (C-style) or `column-major` (Fortran-style). Default: `'row-major'`.

By default, the function assumes a row-major array. To return a linear index for a column-major array, set the `order` option.

```javascript
var shape = [ 2, 2 ];
var opts = {};

opts.order = 'column-major';
var idx = sub2ind( shape, 1, 0, opts );
// returns 1
```

By default, the function throws an `error` if provided subscripts which exceed array dimensions. To specify alternative behavior, set the `mode` option.

```javascript
var shape = [ 2, 2 ];
var opts = {};

opts.mode = 'wrap';
var idx = sub2ind( shape, -2, 0, opts );
// returns 0

opts.mode = 'clamp';
idx = sub2ind( shape, 10, 10, opts );
// returns 3
```

To specify separate modes for each dimension, provide a `mode` array.

```javascript
var shape = [ 2, 2, 2 ];
var opts = {
    'mode': [
        'wrap',
        'clamp'
    ]
};

var idx = sub2ind( shape, -2, 10, -1, opts );
// returns 3
```

## Examples

<!-- eslint no-undef: "error" -->

```javascript
var numel = require( '@stdlib/ndarray/base/numel' );
var sub2ind = require( '@stdlib/ndarray/sub2ind' );

var shape = [ 3, 3, 3 ];
var len = numel( shape );

var arr = [];
var i;
for ( i = 0; i < len; i++ ) {
    arr.push( i );
}

var opts = {
    'order': 'column-major'
};

console.log( '' );
console.log( 'Dimensions: %s.', shape.join( 'x' ) );
console.log( 'View:' );
console.log( '' );

var slice;
var idx;
var row;
var j;
var k;
for ( k = 0; k < shape[ 2 ]; k++ ) {
    slice = 'A[:,:,'+k+'] = ';
    console.log( slice );
    for ( i = 0; i < shape[ 0 ]; i++ ) {
        row = '  ';
        for ( j = 0; j < shape[ 1 ]; j++ ) {
            idx = sub2ind( shape, i, j, k, opts );
            row += arr[ idx ];
            if ( j < shape[ 1 ]-1 ) {
                row += ', ';
            }
        }
        console.log( row );
    }
    console.log( '' );
