About stdlib...

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 Build Status Coverage Status

Create an iterator which invokes a function for each iterated value.

Installation

npm install @stdlib/iter-map

Usage

var iterMap = require( '@stdlib/iter-map' );

iterMap( iterator, fcn[, thisArg] )

Returns an iterator which invokes a function for each iterated value.

var array2iterator = require( '@stdlib/array-to-iterator' );

function fcn( v ) {
    return v * 10.0;
}

var it = iterMap( array2iterator( [ 1, 2, 3, 4 ] ), fcn );
// returns <Object>

var r = it.next().value;
// returns 10.0

r = it.next().value;
// returns 20.0

r = it.next().value;
// returns 30.0

// ...

The returned iterator protocol-compliant object has the following properties:

  • next: function which returns an iterator 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 and returns a single (optional) argument in an iterator protocol-compliant object.

The invoked function is provided two arguments:

  • value: iterated value
  • index: iteration index (zero-based)
var array2iterator = require( '@stdlib/array-to-iterator' );

function fcn( v, i ) {
    return v * (i+1);
}

var it = iterMap( array2iterator( [ 1, 2, 3, 4 ] ), fcn );
// returns <Object>

var r = it.next().value;
// returns 1

r = it.next().value;
// returns 4

r = it.next().value;
// returns 9

// ...

To set the function execution context, provide a thisArg.

var array2iterator = require( '@stdlib/array-to-iterator' );

function fcn( v ) {
    this.count += 1;
    return v * 10.0;
}

var ctx = {
    'count': 0
};

var it = iterMap( array2iterator( [ 1, 2, 3, 4 ] ), fcn, ctx );
// returns <Object>

var r = it.next().value;
// returns 10.0

r = it.next().value;
// returns 20.0

r = it.next().value;
// returns 30.0

var count = ctx.count;
// returns 3

Notes

  • If an environment supports Symbol.iterator and a provided iterator is iterable, the returned iterator is iterable.

Examples

var randu = require( '@stdlib/random-iter-randu' );
var iterMap = require( '@stdlib/iter-map' );

function scale( v ) {
    return v * 10.0;
}

// Create a seeded iterator for generating pseudorandom numbers:
var rand = randu({
    'seed': 1234,
    'iter': 10
});

// Create an iterator which scales the generated numbers:
var it = iterMap( rand, scale );

// Perform manual iteration...
var r;
while ( true ) {
    r = it.next();
    if ( r.done ) {
        break;
    }
    console.log( r.value );
}

See Also

  • @stdlib/iter-filter: create an iterator which filters the values of another iterator according to a predicate function.
  • @stdlib/iter-filter-map: create an iterator which both filters and maps the values of another iterator.
  • @stdlib/iter-for-each: create an iterator which invokes a function for each iterated value before returning the iterated value.
  • @stdlib/iter-reject: create an iterator which rejects the values of another iterator according to a predicate function.

Notice

This package is part of stdlib, a standard library for JavaScript and Node.js, with an emphasis on numerical and scientific computing. The library provides a collection of robust, high performance libraries for mathematics, statistics, streams, utilities, and more.
