Package Exports

@stdlib/iter-some-by

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (@stdlib/iter-some-by) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

iterSomeBy

Test whether at least n iterated values pass a test implemented by a predicate function.

Installation

npm install @stdlib/iter-some-by

Usage

var iterSomeBy = require( '@stdlib/iter-some-by' );

iterSomeBy( iterator, n, predicate[, thisArg] )

Tests whether at least n iterated values pass a test implemented by a predicate function.

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

function predicate( v ) {
    return ( v > 0 );
}

var arr = array2iterator( [ 1, 1, 1, 0, 1 ] );

var bool = iterSomeBy( arr, 4, predicate );
// returns true

If a provided iterator does not return any iterated values, the function returns false.

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

function predicate() {
    return true;
}

var bool = iterSomeBy( array2iterator( [] ), 1, predicate );
// returns false

A predicate function is provided two arguments:

value: iterated value
index: iteration index (zero-based)

To set the execution context of the predicate function, provide a thisArg.

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

function predicate( v ) {
    this.count += 1;
    return ( v > 0 );
}

var arr = array2iterator( [ 1, 1, 0, 1, 1 ] );

var ctx = {
    'count': 0
};

var bool = iterSomeBy( arr, 3, predicate, ctx );
// returns true

var n = ctx.count;
// returns 4

Notes

The function immediately returns upon encountering n truthy return values.

Examples

var randu = require( '@stdlib/random-iter-randu' );
var iterSomeBy = require( '@stdlib/iter-some-by' );

function threshold( r ) {
    return ( r >= 0.95 );
}

// Create an iterator which generates uniformly distributed pseudorandom numbers:
var opts = {
    'iter': 100
};
var riter = randu( opts );

// Determine if at least 5 values exceed a threshold:
var bool = iterSomeBy( riter, 5, threshold );
// returns <boolean>

console.log( bool );

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.
