Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

$ npm install compute.io

Usage

To use compute,

var compute = require( 'compute.io' );

The compute module is comprised of several smaller modules. If you want to roll your own compute, follow the links and import the individual modules.

The compute module has the following methods...

Utilities

compute.polyval( coef, x[, opts] )

Evaluates a polynomial whose coefficients are defined by coef. x may be either a single numeric value or an array of values at which to evaluate to the polynomial.

var coef = [ 4, 2, 6, -17 ];

var vals = compute.polyval( coef, [ 10, -3] );
// returns [ 4243, -125 ]

For object arrays, provide an accessor function for accessing array values.

var coefs = [ 4, 2, 6, -17 ];

var data = [
    ['beep', 10],
    ['boop', -3]
];

function getValue( d, i ) {
    return d[ 1 ];
}

var vals = compute.polyval( coefs, data, {
    'accessor': getValue
});
// returns [ 4243, -125 ]

For additional options, see compute-polynomial.

compute.find( arr, [opts,] clbk )

Finds array elements which satisfy a test condition.

var arr = [ 2, 1, 3, 4 ];

var opts = {
	'k': -2,
	'returns': '*'
};

function condition( val ) {
	return val < 4;
}

var results = compute.find( arr, opts, condition );
// returns [ [2,3], [1,1] ]

For further documentation, see the compute-find module.

compute.dims( arr[, max] )

Computes array dimensions, including nested arrays.

var data, d;

data = [ 1, 2 ];
d = compute.dims( data );
// returns [2]

data = [ [1,2], [1,2] ];
d = compute.dims( data );
// returns [2,2]

To limit the number of dimensions returned, set the max option.

compute.issorted( arr[, comparator] )

Returns a boolean indicating if an input array is sorted.

var bool = compute.issorted( [ 2, 3, 5, 4 ] );
// returns false

By default, the method assumes ascending order. To impose an arbitrary sort order, provide a comparator function.

function descending( a, b ) {
	return b - a;
}

var bool = compute.issorted( [ 5, 4, 3, 2 ], descending );
// returns true

compute.flatten( arr[, options] )

Flattens an array.

var arr = [ 1, [2, [3, [4, [ 5 ], 6], 7], 8], 9 ];

var out = compute.flatten( arr );
// returns [ 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 ]

For method options, such as limiting depth, deep copying, and function generation, see compute-flatten.

Array Creation

compute.linspace( start, stop[, length] )

Generates a linearly spaced numeric array. If a length is not provided, the default output array length is 100.

var arr = compute.linspace( 0, 100, 6 );
// returns [ 0, 20, 40, 60, 80, 100 ]

compute.incrspace( start, stop[, increment] )

Generates a linearly spaced numeric array. If an increment is not provided, the default increment is 1.

var arr = compute.incrspace( 0, 11, 2 );
// returns [ 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 ]

compute.indexspace( str, len )

Generates a linearly spaced index array from a subsequence string. len specifies the output index array length.

var arr = compute.indexspace( ':', 5 );
// returns [ 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 ]

arr = compute.indexspace( '2:', 5 );
// returns [ 2, 3, 4 ]

arr = compute.indexspace( '1:4:2', 5 );
// returns [ 1, 3 ]

arr = compute.indexspace( '-3:', 5 );
// returns [ 2, 3, 4 ];

arr = compute.indexspace( ':-2', 5 );
// returns [ 0, 1, 2 ]

arr = compute.indexspace( ':', 0 );
// returns []

The subsequence string syntax is similar to Python's slice notation.

var str = '<start>:<stop>:<increment>';

The method also recognizes the end keyword, which refers to the last index; i.e., len-1. If specified as the stop index, end is inclusive and equivalent to <start>::<increment>.

arr = compute.indexspace( 'end::-1', 5 );
// returns [ 4, 3, 2, 1, 0 ]

arr = compute.indexspace( ':end', 5 );
// returns [ 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 ]

Basic arithmetic (subtraction and division) may be performed on the end keyword. The result from division is rounded up to the next integer.

arr = compute.indexspace( 'end-2::-1', 5 );
// returns [ 2, 1, 0 ];

arr = compute.indexspace( ':end/2', 5 );
// returns [ 0, 1 ]

For further details about syntax and additional examples, see compute-indexspace.

compute.logspace( a, b[, length] )

Generates a logarithmically spaced numeric array. If a length is not provided, the default output array length is 10.

var arr = compute.logspace( 0, 2, 6 );
// returns [ 1, ~2.5, ~6.31, ~15.85, ~39.81, 100 ]

compute.datespace( start, stop[, length, opts] )

Generates an array of linearly spaced Date objects. If a length is not provided, the default output array length is 100.

var stop = '2014-12-02T07:00:54.973Z',
	start = new Date( stop ) - 60000;

var arr = compute.datespace( start, stop, 6 );
/* returns [
	'Mon Dec 01 2014 22:59:54 GMT-0800 (PST)',
	'Mon Dec 01 2014 23:00:06 GMT-0800 (PST)',
	'Mon Dec 01 2014 23:00:18 GMT-0800 (PST)',
	'Mon Dec 01 2014 23:00:30 GMT-0800 (PST)',
	'Mon Dec 01 2014 23:00:42 GMT-0800 (PST)',
	'Mon Dec 01 2014 23:00:54 GMT-0800 (PST)'
]
*/

For function options, see the compute-datespace module.

compute.incrdatespace( start, stop[, increment, opts] )

Generates an array of linearly spaced Date objects. If an increment is not provided, the default increment is day.

var stop = '2014-12-02T07:00:54.973Z',
	start = new Date( stop ) - 60000;

var arr = compute.incrdatespace( start, stop, '8sec' );
/* returns [
	'Mon Dec 01 2014 22:59:54 GMT-0800 (PST)',
	'Mon Dec 01 2014 23:00:06 GMT-0800 (PST)',
	'Mon Dec 01 2014 23:00:18 GMT-0800 (PST)',
	'Mon Dec 01 2014 23:00:30 GMT-0800 (PST)',
	'Mon Dec 01 2014 23:00:42 GMT-0800 (PST)'
]
*/

For function options, see the compute-incrdatespace module.

compute.zip( arr1, arr2,...[, opts] )

Returns an array of arrays, where the ith element (tuple) in the returned array contains the ith elements of the input arrays.

var zipped = compute.zip( [1,2], ['a','b'] );
// returns [ [1,'a'], [2,'b'] ]

For function options, see the compute-zip module.

compute.unzip( arr[, idx] )

var arr = [ [1,'a',3], [2,'b',4] ];

var out = compute.unzip( arr );
// returns [ [1,2], ['a','b'], [3,4] ];

To unzip specific tuple elements, you can provide an array of indices as an optional second argument.

var arr = [ [1,'a',3], [2,'b',4] ];

var out = compute.unzip( arr, [0,2] );
// returns [ [1,2], [3,4] ];

// returns [ 4, 3, 2, 1 ]

By default, the input array is mutated. To return a new array, set the copy option to true.

var arr = [ 1, 2, 3, 4 ];

var out = compute.reverse( arr, {
	'copy': true
});
// returns [ 4, 3, 2, 1 ];

console.log( arr === out );
// returns false

compute.shuffle( arr )

var arr = [ 1, 2, 3, 4 ];

compute.shuffle( arr );

Note: the array is mutated.

compute.circshift( x, k )

Circularly shifts elements/characters. x may be an array or a string. k is an integer specifying the number of positions to shift. The sign of k specifies the shift direction.

compute.circshift( [1,2,3,4,5], 2 );
// returns [4,5,1,2,3]

var str = compute.circshift( 'beepboop', -3 );

If the input array is already sorted in ascending order, set the sorted flag to true.

compute.truncmean( arr, discard[, opts] )

Computes the truncated mean of an array. The discard parameter specifies how many values are excluded from both ends of the input array when computing the statistic. discard may either be expressed as a percentage on the interval [0,0.5] or as an integer less than half the input array length.

var data = [ 2, 4, 5, 3, 8, 2, 4, 4, 100, 0 ];

var mu = compute.truncmean( data, 0.1 );
