iterAbs
Create an iterator which iteratively computes the absolute value.
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 adone
property having aboolean
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 returnsNaN
. If non-numeric iterated values are possible, you are advised to provide aniterator
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 );
