API

The zip function is the default export of the package.

zip joins provided arrays, basically transposing a 3d matrix, much like Python's zip function.

Example

import zip from '@cocopina/zip';

const array1 = [1, 2];
const arary2 = [3, 4];
const zipped = zip(array1, array2);

console.log(zipped); // [[1, 3], [2, 4]]

toObject [Function]

Generates a new object from this instance's arrays, using the first array as keys, and the second one as values.

IMPORTANT This will only work when providing exactly 2 arrays.

Example

import zip from '@cocopina/zip';

const zipped = zip(
    ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd'],
    [1, 2, 3, 4]
);

console.log(zipped.toObject()); // { a: 1, b: 2, c: 3, d: 4 }
