NPM GRAPH

Abaco, an ultra fast number parser for Buffers. It parses a Buffer, or a portion of it, to get the Number value stored as (ASCII) String.

It is faster than parseInt(), parseFloat() and Number() constructor to convert a String or a Buffer to a usable Number.

NOTE: It adds the ability to parse a float with a radix argument, as for #parseInt.

Install

$ npm install abaco [-g]
// clone repo
$ git clone git@github.com:rootslab/abaco.git

require returns an helper hash/obj.

var Abaco  = require( 'abaco' );

Run Tests

cd abaco/
$ npm test

Run Benchmarks

cd abaco/
$ npm run-script bench

Sample Usage

See examples.

Methods

Arguments within [ ] are optional.

/*
 * Parse a Buffer that contains string representation of an integer Number.
 * If radix is not specified, it defaults to 10; possible radix value range
 * is between 2 and 16.
 * If begin or end are not specified, it parses the entire Buffer.
 *
 * NOTE: js number precision is limited to ~ 2^53 or 10^16, it means, for example,
 * that the limit for decimal numbers is 16 bytes/chars; so it returns NaN for
 * values out of this range. NaN also signals that is better to use raw String,
 * because number representation is not accurate. See 'bl' table in the code to
 * check bytes limit for every radix.
 *
 * NOTE: Only '-' prefix is supported, no 0x' or '0' prefix, for hex or octal
 * digits; just use the begin offset for skipping some bytes.
 *
