Usage

var filledarrayBy = require( '@stdlib/array-filled-by' );

filledarrayBy( [dtype] )

Creates a filled array having a specified data type dtype.

var arr = filledarrayBy();
// returns <Float64Array>

The function recognizes the following data types:

• float64: double-precision floating-point numbers (IEEE 754)
• float32: single-precision floating-point numbers (IEEE 754)
• complex128: double-precision complex floating-point numbers
• complex64: single-precision complex floating-point numbers
• int32: 32-bit two's complement signed integers
• uint32: 32-bit unsigned integers
• int16: 16-bit two's complement signed integers
• uint16: 16-bit unsigned integers
• int8: 8-bit two's complement signed integers
• uint8: 8-bit unsigned integers
• uint8c: 8-bit unsigned integers clamped to 0-255
• generic: generic JavaScript values

By default, the output array data type is float64 (i.e., a typed array). To specify an alternative data type, provide a dtype argument.

var arr = filledarrayBy( 'int32' );
// returns <Int32Array>

filledarrayBy( length[, dtype], clbk[, thisArg] )

Returns a filled array according to a provided callback function and having a specified length.

function constant() {
    return 1.0;
}

var arr1 = filledarrayBy( 5, constant );
// returns <Float64Array>[ 1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0 ]

var arr2 = filledarrayBy( 5, 'uint8', constant );
// returns <Uint8Array>[ 1, 1, 1, 1, 1 ]

filledarrayBy( array[, dtype], clbk[, thisArg] )

Creates a filled array from another array (or array-like object) according to a provided callback function.

var arr0 = {
    '0': 0.5,
    '1': 0.5,
    '2': 0.5,
    'length': 3
};

function clbk1() {
    return 1.0;
}
var arr1 = filledarrayBy( arr0, clbk1 );
// returns <Float64Array>[ 1.0, 1.0, 1.0 ]

function clbk2() {
    return 2.0;
}
var arr2 = filledarrayBy( arr1, clbk2 );
// returns <Float64Array>[ 2.0, 2.0, 2.0 ]

function clbk3() {
    return 3.0;
}
var arr3 = filledarrayBy( arr1, 'int32', clbk3 );
// returns <Int32Array>[ 3, 3, 3 ]

filledarrayBy( iterable[, dtype], clbk[, thisArg] )

Creates a filled array from an iterable according to a provided callback function.

var iterConstant = require( '@stdlib/iter-constant' );

function clbk() {
    return 1.0;
}

var it = iterConstant( 3.0, {
    'iter': 3
});

var arr1 = filledarrayBy( it, clbk );
// returns <Float64Array>[ 1.0, 1.0, 1.0 ]

var arr2 = filledarrayBy( it, 'float32', clbk );
// returns <Float32Array>[ 1.0, 1.0, 1.0 ]

filledarrayBy( buffer[, byteOffset[, length]][, dtype], clbk[, thisArg] )

Returns a filled typed array view of an ArrayBuffer according to a provided callback function.

var ArrayBuffer = require( '@stdlib/array-buffer' );

function clbk() {
    return 1.0;
}

var buf = new ArrayBuffer( 32 );
var arr = filledarrayBy( buf, clbk );
// returns <Float64Array>[ 1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0 ]

buf = new ArrayBuffer( 32 );
arr = filledarrayBy( buf, 'float32', clbk );
// returns <Float32Array>[ 1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0 ]

buf = new ArrayBuffer( 32 );
arr = filledarrayBy( buf, 16, clbk );
// returns <Float64Array>[ 1.0, 1.0 ]

buf = new ArrayBuffer( 32 );
arr = filledarrayBy( buf, 16, 'float32', clbk );
// returns <Float32Array>[ 1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0 ]

buf = new ArrayBuffer( 32 );
arr = filledarrayBy( buf, 16, 1, clbk );
// returns <Float64Array>[ 1.0 ]

buf = new ArrayBuffer( 32 );
arr = filledarrayBy( buf, 10, 4, 'int16', clbk );
// returns <Int16Array>[ 1, 1, 1, 1 ]
