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!
iterMap
[![NPM version][npm-image]][npm-url] [![Build Status][test-image]][test-url] [![Coverage Status][coverage-image]][coverage-url]
Create an [iterator][mdn-iterator-protocol] which invokes a unary function accepting a single numeric argument for each iterated value.
bash
npm install @stdlib/math-iter-tools-map
javascript
var iterMap = require( '@stdlib/math-iter-tools-map' );
#### iterMap( iterator, fcn[, options] )
Returns an [iterator][mdn-iterator-protocol] which invokes a unary function
accepting a single numeric argument for each iterated value.
javascript
var array2iterator = require( '@stdlib/array-to-iterator' );
var sin = require( '@stdlib/math-base-special-sin' );
var it = iterMap( array2iterator( [ 1, 2, 3, 4 ] ), sin );
// returns <Object>
var r = it.next().value;
// returns <number>
r = it.next().value;
// returns <number>
r = it.next().value;
// returns <number>
// ...
The returned [iterator][mdn-iterator-protocol] protocol-compliant object has the following properties:
- next: function which returns an [iterator][mdn-iterator-protocol] protocol-compliant object containing the next iterated value (if one exists) assigned to a value
property and a done
property having a boolean
value indicating whether the iterator is finished.
- return: function which closes an [iterator][mdn-iterator-protocol] and returns a single (optional) argument in an [iterator][mdn-iterator-protocol] protocol-compliant object.
The invoked function
is provided one argument:
- value
: iterated value
javascript
var array2iterator = require( '@stdlib/array-to-iterator' );
function fcn( v ) {
return v + 10;
}
var it = iterMap( array2iterator( [ 1, 2, 3, 4 ] ), fcn );
// returns <Object>
var r = it.next().value;
// returns 11
r = it.next().value;
// returns 12
r = it.next().value;
// returns 13
// ...
The function supports the following options
:
- invalid: return value when an input [iterator][mdn-iterator-protocol] yields a non-numeric value. Default: NaN
.
By default, the function returns an [iterator][mdn-iterator-protocol] which returns NaN
when an input [iterator][mdn-iterator-protocol] yields a non-numeric value. To specify a different return value, set the invalid
option.
javascript
var array2iterator = require( '@stdlib/array-to-iterator' );
var sin = require( '@stdlib/math-base-special-sin' );
var opts = {
'invalid': null
};
var it = iterMap( array2iterator( [ '1', '2', '3' ] ), sin, opts );
// returns <Object>
var v = it.next().value;
// returns null
v = it.next().value;
// returns null
// ...
Symbol.iterator
and a provided [iterator][mdn-iterator-protocol] is iterable, the returned [iterator][mdn-iterator-protocol] is iterable.
javascript
var randu = require( '@stdlib/random-iter-randu' );
var sin = require( '@stdlib/math-base-special-sin' );
var iterMap = require( '@stdlib/math-iter-tools-map' );
// Create a seeded iterator for generating pseudorandom numbers:
var rand = randu({
'seed': 1234,
'iter': 10
});
// Create an iterator which consumes the pseudorandom number iterator:
var it = iterMap( rand, sin );
// Perform manual iteration...
var r;
while ( true ) {
r = it.next();
if ( r.done ) {
break;
}
console.log( r.value );
}
