Package Exports

compute-neq

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 (compute-neq) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

Not Equal

Computes an element-wise comparison (not equal) of an array.

Installation

$ npm install compute-neq

For use in the browser, use browserify.

Usage

To use the module,

var neq = require( 'compute-neq' );

neq( arr, x[, opts] )

Computes an element-wise comparison (not equal) for each input array element. x may either be an array of equal length or a single value (of any type).

The function returns an array with length equal to that of the input array. Each output array element is either 0 or 1. A value of 1 means that an element is not equal to a compared value and 0 means that an element is equal to a compared value.

var arr = [ 5, 3, 8, 3, 2 ],
    out;

// Single comparison value:
out = neq( arr, 3 );
// returns [ 1, 0, 1, 0, 1 ]

// Array of comparison values:
out = neq( arr, [ 5, 2, 8, 7, 3 ] );
// returns [ 0, 1, 0, 1, 1 ]

By default, the function enforces type equality. To turn off type equality, set the strict options flag to false.

var arr = [ 1, 0, 3, null, undefined ],
    compare = [ true, false, 2, 0, 1 ],
    out;

out = neq( arr, compare );
// returns [ 1, 1, 1, 1, 1 ];

out = neq( arr, compare, {'strict': false} );
// returns [ 0, 0, 1, 1, 1 ]

By default, if provided a comparison array which has a length equal to the input array length, the function assumes an element-by-element comparison. To turn off element-by-element comparison for equal length arrays, set the array options flag to true.

var el = [ 1, 2 ],
    arr = [ el, null ],
    out;

out = neq( arr, el );
// returns [ 1, 1 ];

out = neq( arr, el, {'array': true} );
// returns [ 0, 1 ];

Notes

Currently, this function only computes shallow inequality and does not compute deep inequality when comparing arrays or objects.

Examples

var neq = require( 'compute-neq' ),
    sum = require( 'compute-sum' );

// Simulate some data...
var data = new Array( 100 );

for ( var i = 0; i < data.length; i++ ) {
    data[ i ] = Math.round( Math.random()*20 );
}

var out = neq( data, 10 );

// Count the number of values not equal to 10...
var count = sum( out );

console.log( 'Total: %d', count );

To run the example code from the top-level application directory,

$ node ./examples/index.js

Tests

Unit

Unit tests use the Mocha test framework with Chai assertions. To run the tests, execute the following command in the top-level application directory:

$ make test

All new feature development should have corresponding unit tests to validate correct functionality.

Test Coverage

This repository uses Istanbul as its code coverage tool. To generate a test coverage report, execute the following command in the top-level application directory:

$ make test-cov

Istanbul creates a ./reports/coverage directory. To access an HTML version of the report,

$ make view-cov
