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!

map4d

Apply a function to each nested element in a four-dimensional nested array and assign the result to a nested element in a new four-dimensional nested array.

Installation

npm install @stdlib/utils-map4d

Usage

var map4d = require( '@stdlib/utils-map4d' );

map4d( arr, fcn[, thisArg] )

Applies a function to each nested element in a four-dimensional nested array and assigns the result to a nested element in a new four-dimensional nested array.

var naryFunction = require( '@stdlib/utils-nary-function' );
var abs = require( '@stdlib/math-base-special-abs' );

var arr = [
    [ [ [ -1, -2, -3 ] ] ],
    [ [ [ -4, -5, -6 ] ] ]
];

var out = map4d( arr, naryFunction( abs, 1 ) );
// returns [ [ [ [ 1, 2, 3 ] ] ], [ [ [ 4, 5, 6 ] ] ] ]

The applied function is provided the following arguments:

• value: array element.
• indices: current array element indices.
• arr: input array.

To set the this context when invoking the input function, provide a thisArg.

var abs = require( '@stdlib/math-base-special-abs' );

function fcn( v ) {
    this.count += 1;
    return abs( v );
}

var arr = [
    [ [ [ -1, -2, -3 ] ] ],
    [ [ [ -4, -5, -6 ] ] ]
];

var ctx = {
    'count': 0
};

var out = map4d( arr, fcn, ctx );
// returns [ [ [ [ 1, 2, 3 ] ] ], [ [ [ 4, 5, 6 ] ] ] ]

var cnt = ctx.count;
// returns 6

Examples

var filledarrayBy = require( '@stdlib/array-filled-by' );
var discreteUniform = require( '@stdlib/random-base-discrete-uniform' ).factory;
var naryFunction = require( '@stdlib/utils-nary-function' );
var abs2 = require( '@stdlib/math-base-special-abs2' );
var map4d = require( '@stdlib/utils-map4d' );

function fill( n ) {
    if ( n > 0 ) {
        return array;
    }
    return values;

    function array() {
        return filledarrayBy( 2, 'generic', fill( n-1 ) );
    }

    function values( i ) {
        var rand = discreteUniform( -10*(i+1), 10*(i+1) );
        return filledarrayBy( 10, 'generic', rand );
    }
}

// Create a four-dimensional nested array:
var x = filledarrayBy( 2, 'generic', fill( 2 ) );

// Create an explicit unary function:
var f = naryFunction( abs2, 1 );

// Compute the element-wise squared absolute value...
var y = map4d( x, f );

console.log( 'x:' );
console.log( JSON.stringify( x, null, '  ' ) );

console.log( 'y:' );
console.log( JSON.stringify( y, null, '  ' ) );
