+# fillRange
+
+> Fill an input [ndarray][@stdlib/ndarray/ctor] with a specified value along an [ndarray][@stdlib/ndarray/ctor] dimension.
+
+<section class="usage">
+
+## Usage
+
+```javascript
+var fillRange = require( '@stdlib/blas/ext/fill-range' );
+```
+
+#### fillRange( x, value\[, start\[, end]]\[, options] )
+
+Fills an input [ndarray][@stdlib/ndarray/ctor] with a specified value along an [ndarray][@stdlib/ndarray/ctor] dimension.
+
+```javascript
+var array = require( '@stdlib/ndarray/array' );
+
+// Create an input ndarray:
+var x = array( [ 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, 5.0, 6.0 ] );
+// returns <ndarray>[ 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, 5.0, 6.0 ]
+
+// Perform operation:
+var y = fillRange( x, 10.0, 1, 4 );
+// returns <ndarray>[ 1.0, 10.0, 10.0, 10.0, 5.0, 6.0 ]
+
+var bool = ( x === y );
+// returns true
+```
+
+The function has the following parameters:
+
+-   **x**: input [ndarray][@stdlib/ndarray/ctor].
+-   **value**: fill value. May be either a scalar value or an [ndarray][@stdlib/ndarray/ctor]. Must be able to safely cast to the input [ndarray][@stdlib/ndarray/ctor] [data type][@stdlib/ndarray/dtypes]. Values having floating-point [data types][@stdlib/ndarray/dtypes] (both real and complex) are allowed to downcast to a lower precision [data type][@stdlib/ndarray/dtypes] of the same kind (e.g., a scalar double-precision floating-point number can be used to fill a `'float32'` input [ndarray][@stdlib/ndarray/ctor]). If provided an [ndarray][@stdlib/ndarray/ctor], the value must have a shape which is [broadcast-compatible][@stdlib/ndarray/base/broadcast-shapes] with the complement of the shape defined by `options.dim`. For example, given the input shape `[2, 3, 4]` and `options.dim=0`, an [ndarray][@stdlib/ndarray/ctor] fill value must have a shape which is [broadcast-compatible][@stdlib/ndarray/base/broadcast-shapes] with the shape `[3, 4]`.
+-   **start**: starting index (inclusive) (_optional_). May be either an integer or an [ndarray][@stdlib/ndarray/ctor] having an integer index or "generic" [data type][@stdlib/ndarray/dtypes] and following the same broadcasting semantics as an [ndarray][@stdlib/ndarray/ctor] `value` argument. Default: `0`.
+-   **end**: ending index (exclusive) (_optional_). May be either an integer or an [ndarray][@stdlib/ndarray/ctor] having an integer index or "generic" [data type][@stdlib/ndarray/dtypes] and following the same broadcasting semantics as an [ndarray][@stdlib/ndarray/ctor] `value` argument. By default, the ending index is `N`, where `N` is the number of elements along the dimension specified by `options.dim`.
+-   **options**: function options (_optional_).
+
+The function accepts the following options:
+
+-   **dim**: dimension over which to perform operation. If provided a negative integer, the dimension along which to perform the operation is determined by counting backward from the last dimension (where `-1` refers to the last dimension). Default: `-1`.
+
+When a `start` and/or `end` index is negative, the respective index is determined relative to the last indexed element, with out-of-bounds indices clamped to index bounds.
+
+```javascript
+var array = require( '@stdlib/ndarray/array' );
+
+var x = array( [ 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, 5.0, 6.0 ] );
+
+var y = fillRange( x, 10.0, -2 );
+// returns <ndarray>[ 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, 10.0, 10.0 ]
+```
+
+By default, the function performs the operation over elements along the last dimension. To perform the operation over a different dimension, provide a `dim` option.
+
+```javascript
+var array = require( '@stdlib/ndarray/array' );
+
+var x = array( [ [ 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0 ], [ 5.0, 6.0, 7.0, 8.0 ] ] );
+
+var y = fillRange( x, array( [ 9.0, 10.0, 11.0, 12.0 ] ), {
+    'dim': 0
+});
+// returns <ndarray>[ [ 9.0, 10.0, 11.0, 12.0 ], [ 9.0, 10.0, 11.0, 12.0 ] ]
+```

+
+    When a `start` and/or `end` index is negative, the respective index is

+    clamped to index bounds.
+
+    The function fills an input ndarray in-place and thus mutates an input
+    ndarray.
+
+    Parameters
+    ----------
+    x: ndarray
+        Input array.
+
+    value: ndarray|any
+        Fill value. May be either a scalar value or an ndarray. Must be able to

+        data types (both real and complex) are allowed to downcast to a lower
+        precision data type of the same kind (e.g., a scalar double-precision
+        floating-point number can be used to fill a 'float32' input ndarray). If
+        provided an ndarray, the value must have a shape which is broadcast
+        compatible with the complement of the shape defined by `options.dim`.

+        ndarray fill value must have a shape which is broadcast compatible with
+        the shape `[3, 4]`.
+
+    start: ndarray|integer (optional)
+        Starting index (inclusive). May be either an integer or an ndarray
+        having an integer index or "generic" data type and following the same
+        broadcasting semantics as an ndarray `value` argument. Default: `0`.
+
+    end: ndarray|integer (optional)
+        Ending index (exclusive). May be either an integer or an ndarray having
+        an integer index or "generic" data type and following the same
+        broadcasting semantics as an ndarray `value` argument. Default: `N`
+        where `N` is the number of elements along the operation dimension.
+
+    options: Object (optional)
+        Function options.
+
+    options.dim: integer (optional)
+        Dimension over which to perform operation. If provided a negative
+        integer, the dimension along which to perform the operation is
+        determined by counting backward from the last dimension (where `-1`
+        refers to the last dimension). Default: `-1`.

+    -------
+    out: ndarray
+        Input array.
