nditer2arrayEach

Create an iterator which converts each iterated ndarray to a generic array.

Usage

var nditer2arrayEach = require( '@stdlib/ndarray/iter/to-array-each' );

nditer2arrayEach( iterator )

Returns an iterator which converts each iterated ndarray to a generic array (which may include nested arrays).

var array = require( '@stdlib/ndarray/array' );
var nditerRows = require( '@stdlib/ndarray/iter/rows' );

var x = array( [ [ [ 1, 2 ], [ 3, 4 ] ], [ [ 5, 6 ], [ 7, 8 ] ] ] );
// returns <ndarray>

var iter = nditer2arrayEach( nditerRows( x ) );

var v = iter.next().value;
// returns [ 1, 2 ]

v = iter.next().value;
// returns [ 3, 4 ]

v = iter.next().value;
// returns [ 5, 6 ]

// ...

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.

Notes

  • If an environment supports Symbol.iterator and a provided iterator is iterable, the returned iterator is iterable.

Examples

var array = require( '@stdlib/ndarray/array' );
var zeroTo = require( '@stdlib/array/base/zero-to' );
var nditerRows = require( '@stdlib/ndarray/iter/rows' );
var nditer2arrayEach = require( '@stdlib/ndarray/iter/to-array-each' );

// Define an input array:
var x = array( zeroTo( 27 ), {
    'shape': [ 3, 3, 3 ]
});

// Create an iterator for iterating over rows and converting to generic arrays:
var it = nditer2arrayEach( nditerRows( x ) );

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