# Arrays
[![NPM version][npm-image]][npm-url] [![Build Status][test-image]][test-url] [![Coverage Status][coverage-image]][coverage-url] [![dependencies][dependencies-image]][dependencies-url]
> Arrays.
<section class="installation">
## Installation
```bash
npm install @stdlib/array
```
</section>
<section class="usage">
## Usage
```javascript
var ns = require( '@stdlib/array' );
```
#### ns
Arrays.
```javascript
var o = ns;
// returns {...}
```
The namespace exports the following array constructors:
<!-- <toc pattern="+(int*|float*|uint*|*buffer)"> -->
<div class="namespace-toc">
- <span class="signature">[`ArrayBuffer( size )`][@stdlib/array/buffer]</span><span class="delimiter">: </span><span class="description">constructor which returns an object used to represent a generic, fixed-length raw binary data buffer.</span>
- <span class="signature">[`Float32Array()`][@stdlib/array/float32]</span><span class="delimiter">: </span><span class="description">typed array constructor which returns a typed array representing an array of single-precision floating-point numbers in the platform byte order.</span>
- <span class="signature">[`Float64Array()`][@stdlib/array/float64]</span><span class="delimiter">: </span><span class="description">typed array constructor which returns a typed array representing an array of double-precision floating-point numbers in the platform byte order.</span>
- <span class="signature">[`Int16Array()`][@stdlib/array/int16]</span><span class="delimiter">: </span><span class="description">typed array constructor which returns a typed array representing an array of twos-complement 16-bit signed integers in the platform byte order.</span>
- <span class="signature">[`Int32Array()`][@stdlib/array/int32]</span><span class="delimiter">: </span><span class="description">typed array constructor which returns a typed array representing an array of twos-complement 32-bit signed integers in the platform byte order.</span>
- <span class="signature">[`Int8Array()`][@stdlib/array/int8]</span><span class="delimiter">: </span><span class="description">typed array constructor which returns a typed array representing an array of twos-complement 8-bit signed integers in the platform byte order.</span>
- <span class="signature">[`SharedArrayBuffer( size )`][@stdlib/array/shared-buffer]</span><span class="delimiter">: </span><span class="description">constructor returning an object used to represent a generic, fixed-length raw binary data buffer which can be used to create views of shared memory.</span>
- <span class="signature">[`Uint16Array()`][@stdlib/array/uint16]</span><span class="delimiter">: </span><span class="description">typed array constructor which returns a typed array representing an array of 16-bit unsigned integers in the platform byte order.</span>
- <span class="signature">[`Uint32Array()`][@stdlib/array/uint32]</span><span class="delimiter">: </span><span class="description">typed array constructor which returns a typed array representing an array of 32-bit unsigned integers in the platform byte order.</span>
- <span class="signature">[`Uint8Array()`][@stdlib/array/uint8]</span><span class="delimiter">: </span><span class="description">typed array constructor which returns a typed array representing an array of 8-bit unsigned integers in the platform byte order.</span>
- <span class="signature">[`Uint8ClampedArray()`][@stdlib/array/uint8c]</span><span class="delimiter">: </span><span class="description">typed array constructor which returns a typed array representing an array of 8-bit unsigned integers in the platform byte order clamped to 0-255.</span>
</div>
<!-- </toc> -->
```javascript
var arr = new ns.Int32Array( 5 );
// returns <Int32Array>[ 0, 0, 0, 0, 0 ]
```
Alternatively, use the `typedarray` function to create a typed array of a given data type:
<!-- <toc pattern="typed"> -->
<div class="namespace-toc">
- <span class="signature">[`typedarray()`][@stdlib/array/typed]</span><span class="delimiter">: </span><span class="description">create a typed array.</span>
</div>
<!-- </toc> -->
```javascript
var arr1 = ns.typedarray( 5 );
// returns <Float64Array>[ 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0 ]
var arr2 = ns.typedarray( 5, 'uint8' );
// returns <Uint8Array>[ 0, 0, 0, 0, 0 ]
```
The namespace contains functions to create arrays pre-filled with spaced values:
<!-- <toc pattern="*space"> -->
<div class="namespace-toc">
- <span class="signature">[`datespace( start, stop[, length][, opts] )`][@stdlib/array/datespace]</span><span class="delimiter">: </span><span class="description">generate an array of linearly spaced dates.</span>
- <span class="signature">[`incrspace( start, stop[, increment] )`][@stdlib/array/incrspace]</span><span class="delimiter">: </span><span class="description">generate a linearly spaced numeric array using a provided increment.</span>
- <span class="signature">[`linspace( start, stop[, length] )`][@stdlib/array/linspace]</span><span class="delimiter">: </span><span class="description">generate a linearly spaced numeric array.</span>
- <span class="signature">[`logspace( a, b[, length] )`][@stdlib/array/logspace]</span><span class="delimiter">: </span><span class="description">generate a logarithmically spaced numeric array.</span>
</div>
<!-- </toc> -->
You can use the following functions to retrieve a list of available data types:
<!-- <toc pattern="*dtypes"> -->
<div class="namespace-toc">
- <span class="signature">[`arrayDataTypes()`][@stdlib/array/dtypes]</span><span class="delimiter">: </span><span class="description">list of array data types.</span>
- <span class="signature">[`typedarrayComplexDataTypes()`][@stdlib/array/typed-complex-dtypes]</span><span class="delimiter">: </span><span class="description">list of complex typed array data types.</span>
- <span class="signature">[`typedarrayDataTypes()`][@stdlib/array/typed-dtypes]</span><span class="delimiter">: </span><span class="description">list of typed array data types.</span>
</div>
<!-- </toc> -->
```javascript
var DTYPES = ns.arrayDataTypes();
// returns [ 'float32', 'float64', 'generic', 'int16', 'int32', 'int8', 'uint16', 'uint32', 'uint8', 'uint8c' ]
```
Furthermore, the namespace contains utility functions to retrieve a given constructor:
<!-- <toc keywords="+constructors,+constructor"> -->
<div class="namespace-toc">
- <span class="signature">[`arrayCtors( dtype )`][@stdlib/array/ctors]</span><span class="delimiter">: </span><span class="description">array constructors.</span>
- <span class="signature">[`typedarrayComplexCtors( dtype )`][@stdlib/array/typed-complex-ctors]</span><span class="delimiter">: </span><span class="description">complex typed array constructors.</span>
- <span class="signature">[`typedarrayCtors( dtype )`][@stdlib/array/typed-ctors]</span><span class="delimiter">: </span><span class="description">typed array constructors.</span>
</div>
<!-- </toc> -->
```javascript
var ctor = ns.typedarrayCtors( 'float64' );
// returns <Function>
ctor = ns.typedarrayCtors( 'int' );
// returns null
```
Lastly, the namespace contains various other functions for dealing with arrays, including functions to convert arrays from one data type to another or to serialize them as JSON and vice versa.
<!-- <toc ignore="+(int*|float*|uint*|*buffer)" ignore="typed" ignore="*dtypes" keywords="-constructors,-constructor"> -->
<div class="namespace-toc">
