We believe in a future in which the web is a preferred environment for numerical computation. To help realize this future, we've built stdlib. stdlib is a standard library, with an emphasis on numerical and scientific computation, written in JavaScript (and C) for execution in browsers and in Node.js.
The library is fully decomposable, being architected in such a way that you can swap out and mix and match APIs and functionality to cater to your exact preferences and use cases.
When you use stdlib, you can be absolutely certain that you are using the most thorough, rigorous, well-written, studied, documented, tested, measured, and high-quality code out there.
To join us in bringing numerical computing to the web, get started by checking us out on GitHub, and please consider financially supporting stdlib. We greatly appreciate your continued support!
filledBy
[![NPM version][npm-image]][npm-url] [![Build Status][test-image]][test-url] [![Coverage Status][coverage-image]][coverage-url]
Create a filled "generic" array according to a provided callback function.
bash
npm install @stdlib/array-base-filled-by
javascript
var filledBy = require( '@stdlib/array-base-filled-by' );
#### filledBy( len, clbk[, thisArg] )
Returns a filled "generic" array according to a provided callback function.
javascript
function clbk( i ) {
return i;
}
var out = filledBy( 3, clbk );
// returns [ 0, 1, 2 ]
When invoked, a callback function is provided a single argument:
- index: the current array index.
To set the callback execution context, provide a thisArg
.
javascript
function clbk( i ) {
this.count += 1;
return i;
}
var ctx = {
'count': 0
};
var out = filledBy( 3, clbk, ctx );
// returns [ 0, 1, 2 ];
var cnt = ctx.count;
// returns 3
javascript
var constantFunction = require( '@stdlib/utils-constant-function' );
var filledBy = require( '@stdlib/array-base-filled-by' );
var out = filledBy( 3, constantFunction( 0.0 ) );
// returns [ 0.0, 0.0, 0.0 ]
out = filledBy( 3, constantFunction( 'beep' ) );
// returns [ 'beep', 'beep', 'beep' ]
out = filledBy( 3, constantFunction( null ) );
// returns [ null, null, null ]
out = filledBy( 3, constantFunction( true ) );
// returns [ true, true, true ]
out = filledBy( 3, constantFunction( void 0 ) );
// returns [ undefined, undefined, undefined ]
