Package Exports

@stdlib/math-iter-special-abs

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/math-iter-special-abs) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

iterAbs

$NPM version$ $Build Status$ $Coverage Status$ $dependencies$

Create an iterator which iteratively computes the absolute value.

Installation

npm install @stdlib/math-iter-special-abs

Usage

var iterAbs = require( '@stdlib/math-iter-special-abs' );

iterAbs( iterator )

Returns an iterator which iteratively computes the absolute value.

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

var it = iterAbs( array2iterator( [ -1, 2, -3 ] ) );
// returns <Object>

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

r = it.next().value;
// returns 2

r = it.next().value;
// returns 3

// ...

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.

Notes

If an iterated value is non-numeric (including NaN), the returned iterator returns NaN. If non-numeric iterated values are possible, you are advised to provide an iterator which type checks and handles non-numeric values accordingly.
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 iterAdd = require( '@stdlib/math-iter-ops-add' );
var iterAbs = require( '@stdlib/math-iter-special-abs' );

// 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 = iterAbs( iterAdd( rand, -0.5 ) );

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

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.
