An iterable is a sequence of values.
:package: NPM, :smiley_cat: GitHub, :running: RunKit, :vhs: Asciinema, :moon: Minified, :scroll: Files, :newspaper: JSDoc, :blue_book: Wiki.

Assumption here is that an iterable can only be iterated over once. Methods which require multiple iterations preserve old values in a backup array using many. Many methods accept both compare and map functions, and in some cases using only a map function enables faster comparision (like unique). I borrowed a lot of ideas from Haskell, Elm, Python, Basic, Lodash, and other NPM packages. These are mentioned in references of each method.

Methods as separate packages:

  • @extra-iterable/swap: use rollup to bundle this es module.
  • @extra-iterable/swap.min: use in browser (browserify, uglify-js).

Stability: Experimental.

This is browserified, minified version of extra-iterable.
It is exported as global variable iterable.
CDN: unpkg, jsDelivr.


const iterable = require("extra-iterable");
// import * as iterable from "extra-iterable";
// import * as iterable from "https://unpkg.com/extra-iterable@2.5.10/index.mjs"; (deno)

var x = [2, 4, 6, 8];
iterable.get(x, 1);
// 4

var x = [1, 2, 3, 4];
[...iterable.swap(x, 0, 1)];
// [ 2, 1, 3, 4 ]

var x = [1, 2, 3];
[...iterable.cycle(x, 0, 4)];
// [1, 2, 3, 1]

var x = [1, 2, 3, 4];
iterable.reduce(x, (acc, v) => acc+v);
// 10
