Provides a method to compute a maximum value incrementally.
$ npm install compute-incrmax
For use in the browser, use browserify.
var incrmax = require( 'compute-incrmax' );
Returns an initialized method to compute a maximum value incrementally.
var max = incrmax();
If provided a value
, the method updates and returns the updated max. If not provided a value
, the method returns the current max.
max( 2 );
console.log( max( 1 ) );
// returns 2
max( 3 );
console.log( max() );
// returns 3
Note: if values have not yet been provided to max()
, max()
returns null
.
var incrmax = require( 'compute-incrmax' );
// Initialize a method to calculate the max incrementally:
var max = incrmax();
// Simulate some data...
for ( var i = 0; i < 1000; i++ ) {
max( Math.random() * 100 );
}
console.log( max() );
To run the example code from the top-level application directory,
$ node ./examples/index.js
The use case for this module differs from the conventional vector implementation and the stream implementation. Namely, this module decouples the act of updating the max from the act of consuming the max.
Unit tests use the Mocha test framework with Chai assertions. To run the tests, execute the following command in the top-level application directory:
$ make test
All new feature development should have corresponding unit tests to validate correct functionality.
This repository uses Istanbul as its code coverage tool. To generate a test coverage report, execute the following command in the top-level application directory:
$ make test-cov
Istanbul creates a ./reports/coverage
directory. To access an HTML version of the report,
$ make view-cov
