Package Exports

@stdlib/utils-any

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

Readme

any

Test whether at least one element in a collection is truthy.

Installation

npm install @stdlib/utils-any

Usage

var any = require( '@stdlib/utils-any' );

any( collection )

Tests whether at least one element in a collection is truthy.

var arr = [ 0, 0, 0, 0, 1 ];

var bool = any( arr );
// returns true

If provided an empty collection, the function returns false.

var bool = any( [] );
// returns false

Notes

A collection may be either an Array, Typed Array, or an array-like Object (excluding strings and functions).
The function does not skip undefined elements and is thus not optimized for sparse collections.

Examples

var randu = require( '@stdlib/random-base-randu' );
var any = require( '@stdlib/utils-any' );

var bool;
var arr;
var i;

arr = [];
for ( i = 0; i < 100; i++ ) {
    arr.push( ( randu() > 0.95 ) );
}

bool = any( arr );
// returns <boolean>

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.
