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!

map2d

Apply a function to each nested element in an array of arrays and assign the result to a nested element in a new array of arrays.

Installation

npm install @stdlib/utils-map2d

Alternatively,

• To load the package in a website via a script tag without installation and bundlers, use the ES Module available on the esm branch (see README).
• If you are using Deno, visit the deno branch (see README for usage intructions).
• For use in Observable, or in browser/node environments, use the Universal Module Definition (UMD) build available on the umd branch (see README).

The branches.md file summarizes the available branches and displays a diagram illustrating their relationships.

To view installation and usage instructions specific to each branch build, be sure to explicitly navigate to the respective README files on each branch, as linked to above.

Usage

var map2d = require( '@stdlib/utils-map2d' );

map2d( arr, fcn[, thisArg] )

Applies a function to each nested element in an array of arrays and assigns the result to a nested element in a new array of arrays.

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 = map2d( 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 = map2d( 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 map2d = require( '@stdlib/utils-map2d' );

function fill( i ) {
    var rand = discreteUniform( -10*(i+1), 10*(i+1) );
    return filledarrayBy( 10, 'float64', rand );
}

// Create a nested array of arrays:
var x = filledarrayBy( 10, 'generic', fill );

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

// Compute the element-wise squared absolute value...
var y = map2d( x, f );

console.log( 'x:' );
console.log( x );

console.log( 'y:' );
console.log( y );
