A mini clone of the Lodash library, a Lighthouse Labs project by Devi Raju

Purpose

BEWARE: This library was published for learning purposes. It is not intended for use in production-grade software.

This project was created and published by me as part of my learnings at Lighthouse Labs.

Usage

Install it:

npm install @devi_raju/lotide

Require it:

const _ = require('@devi_raju/lotide');

Call it:

const results = _.tail([1, 2, 3]) // => [2, 3]

Documentation

The following functions are currently implemented:

• assertArraysEqual

A function which will take in two arrays and return an appropriate message to the console.

• assertEqual

A function that compares the two values it takes in and print out a message telling us if they match or not.

• assertObjectsEqual

A function which takes in two objects and return an appropriate message to the console.

• countLetters

A function which takes in a sentence (as a string) and then return a count of each of the letters in that sentence

• countOnly

A function which takes in a collection of items and return counts for a specific subset of those items.

• eqArrays

A function which takes in two arrays and returns true or false, based on a perfect match.

• eqObjects

A function which takes in two objects and returns true or false, based on a perfect match.

• findKey

A function which takes in an object and a callback. It should scan the object and return the first key for which the callback returns a truthy value. If no key is found, then it should return undefined.

• findKeyByValue

A function which takes in an object and a value. It should scan the object and return the first key which contains the given value. If no key with that given value is found, then it should return undefined.

• head

A function which returns the first item in the array

• letterPositions

A function which will return all the indices (zero-based positions) in the string where each character is found

• map

A function which takes in two arguments: An array and a callback function. Then the function will return a new array based on the results of the callback function.

• middle

A function which will take in an array and return the middle-most element(s) of the given array.

• tail

A function which returns the "tail" of an array: everything except for the first item (head) of the provided array.

• takeUntil

A function take in two parameters : An array and a callback function. Then the function should run until the callback returns a truthy value

• without

A function which will return a subset of a given array, removing unwanted elements
