## highway-1.2.0 – length-agnostic SIMD with runtime dispatch

## Description

    Highway is a C++ library that provides portable SIMD/vector intrinsics.

    Highway makes SIMD/vector programming practical and workable according
    to these guiding principles:

    Does what you expect: Highway is a C++ library with carefully-chosen
    functions that map well to CPU instructions without extensive compiler
    transformations. The resulting code is more predictable and robust to
    code changes/compiler updates than autovectorization.

    Works on widely-used platforms: Highway supports four architectures;
    the same application code can target eight instruction sets, including
    those with 'scalable' vectors (size unknown at compile time). Highway
    only requires C++11 and supports four families of compilers.
