iterFilterMap

Create an iterator which both filters and maps the values of another iterator.

Usage

var iterFilterMap = require( '@stdlib/iter/filter-map' );

iterFilterMap( iterator, fcn[, thisArg] )

Returns an iterator which both filters and maps the values of another iterator according to a callback function.

var array2iterator = require( '@stdlib/array/to-iterator' );

function fcn( v ) {
    if ( v > 2 ) {
        return v * 10;
    }
}

var it = iterFilterMap( array2iterator( [ 1, 3, 2, 4 ] ), fcn );
// returns <Object>

var v = it.next().value;
// returns 30

v = it.next().value;
// returns 40

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 a done property having a boolean 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.

The callback function is provided two arguments:

  • value: iterated value.
  • index: iteration index (zero-based).
var array2iterator = require( '@stdlib/array/to-iterator' );

function fcn( v, i ) {
    if ( i >= 2 ) {
        return v * 10;
    }
}

var it = iterFilterMap( array2iterator( [ 3, 4, 1, 2 ] ), fcn );
// returns <Object>

var v = it.next().value;
// returns 10

v = it.next().value;
// returns 20

var bool = it.next().done;
// returns true

To set the callback function execution context, provide a thisArg.

var array2iterator = require( '@stdlib/array/to-iterator' );

function fcn( v ) {
    this.count += 1;
    if ( v > 0 ) {
        return v * 10;
    }
}

var ctx = {
    'count': 0
};

var it = iterFilterMap( array2iterator( [ 1, 2, 3, 4 ] ), fcn, ctx );
// returns <Object>

var v = it.next().value;
// returns 10

v = it.next().value;
// returns 20

v = it.next().value;
// returns 30

var count = ctx.count;
// returns 3

Notes

  • If the callback function returns undefined, the returned iterator invokes the callback for the next value of the provided iterator. If the callback function returns a value other than undefined, the returned iterator returns the callback's return value.
  • If an environment supports Symbol.iterator and a provided iterator is iterable, the returned iterator is iterable.

Examples

var randu = require( '@stdlib/random/iter/randu' );
var iterFilterMap = require( '@stdlib/iter/filter-map' );

function fcn( v ) {
    if ( v > 0.5 ) {
        return v * 10.0;
    }
}

// Create a seeded iterator for generating pseudorandom numbers:
var rand = randu({
    'seed': 1234,
    'iter': 20
});

// Create an iterator which both filters and maps the generated numbers:
var it = iterFilterMap( rand, fcn );

// Perform manual iteration...
var r;
while ( true ) {
    r = it.next();
    if ( r.done ) {
        break;
    }
    console.log( r.value );
}
