About stdlib...
We believe in a future in which the web is a preferred environment for numerical computation. To help realize this future, we've built stdlib. stdlib is a standard library, with an emphasis on numerical and scientific computation, written in JavaScript (and C) for execution in browsers and in Node.js.
The library is fully decomposable, being architected in such a way that you can swap out and mix and match APIs and functionality to cater to your exact preferences and use cases.
When you use stdlib, you can be absolutely certain that you are using the most thorough, rigorous, well-written, studied, documented, tested, measured, and high-quality code out there.
To join us in bringing numerical computing to the web, get started by checking us out on GitHub, and please consider financially supporting stdlib. We greatly appreciate your continued support!
Create an iterator which returns the intersection of two or more iterators according to a hash function.
npm install @stdlib/iter-intersection-by-hash
var iterIntersectionByHash = require( '@stdlib/iter-intersection-by-hash' );
Returns an iterator which returns the intersection of two or more iterators according to a hash function.
var array2iterator = require( '@stdlib/array-to-iterator' );
function hashFcn( v ) {
return v.toString();
}
var it1 = array2iterator( [ 2, 1, 1, 2, 4 ] );
var it2 = array2iterator( [ 3, 4, 3 ] );
var it = iterIntersectionByHash( it1, it2, hashFcn );
// returns <Object>
var v = it.next().value;
// returns 4
var bool = it.next().done;
// returns true
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.
A hash function is provided one argument:
- v: the current iterated value
To set the execution context of the hash function, provide a thisArg
.
var array2iterator = require( '@stdlib/array-to-iterator' );
function hashFcn( v ) {
this.count += 1;
return JSON.stringify( v );
}
var values1 = [
{ 'v': 2 },
{ 'v': 1 },
{ 'v': 1 },
{ 'v': 2 }
];
var values2 = [
{ 'v': 4 },
{ 'v': 3 },
{ 'v': 4 },
{ 'v': 3 },
{ 'v': 1 },
{ 'v': 2 }
];
var it1 = array2iterator( values1 );
var it2 = array2iterator( values2 );
var ctx = {
'count': 0
};
var it = iterIntersectionByHash( it1, it2, hashFcn, ctx );
// returns <Object>
var v = it.next().value;
// returns { 'v': 2 }
v = it.next().value;
// returns { 'v': 1 }
var bool = it.next().done;
// returns true
bool = ( ctx.count > 0 );
// returns true
- A returned iterator internally buffers unique hashes, along with the first iterated value resolving to a hash, and, thus, has
O(N)
memory requirements, whereN
is the length of the first iterator. - An iterated value is considered "unique" if a hash function returns a unique hash value for that iterated value. Beware that this may result in unexpected behavior. Namely, only the first iterated value mapping to a particular hash function result is returned, even if subsequent values, while mapping to the same hash, are different. Accordingly, iteration order does matter.
- Do not provide iterators having infinite length.
- If an environment supports
Symbol.iterator
and all provided iterators are iterable, the returned iterator is iterable.
var discreteUniform = require( '@stdlib/random-iter-discrete-uniform' );

'v': v

// Create seeded iterators which can generate 1000 pseudorandom numbers:

'seed': 1234,
'iter': 1000
});
var rand2 = discreteUniform( 6, 15, {
'seed': 1234,
'iter': 1000

// Create iterators which map each number to an object:
var miter1 = iterMap( rand1, mapFcn );
var miter2 = iterMap( rand2, mapFcn );
// Create an iterator which returns the intersection of the above iterators:

// Perform manual iteration...
