iterPositiveEvenIntegersSeq

Create an iterator which generates a sequence of positive even integers.

Installation

npm install @stdlib/math-iter-sequences-positive-even-integers

Usage

var iterPositiveEvenIntegersSeq = require( '@stdlib/math-iter-sequences-positive-even-integers' );

iterPositiveEvenIntegersSeq( [options] )

Returns an iterator which generates a sequence of positive even integers.

var it = iterPositiveEvenIntegersSeq();
// returns <Object>

var v = it.next().value;
// returns 2

v = it.next().value;
// returns 4

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

The function supports the following options:

• iter: number of iterations. Default: 4503599627370496.

By default, the function returns a finite iterator to avoid exceeding the maximum safe double-precision floating-point integer. To adjust the number of iterations, set the iter option.

var opts = {
    'iter': 2
};
var it = iterPositiveEvenIntegersSeq( opts );
// returns <Object>

var v = it.next().value;
// returns 2

v = it.next().value;
// returns 4

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

Notes

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

Examples

var iterPositiveEvenIntegersSeq = require( '@stdlib/math-iter-sequences-positive-even-integers' );

// Create an iterator:
var opts = {
    'iter': 100
};
var it = iterPositiveEvenIntegersSeq( opts );

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