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 🙏

Readme

rand-num-gen

A simple module for generating random numbers.

rng(30, 14, { float: true, decimal: 2, skip: [16, 17, 25, 29] });

Installing

$ npm i rand-num-gen

The export is { rng }. Here's how to use it:

import { rng } from 'rand-num-gen';

console.log( rng(10, 1, { skip: [7, 8, 9] }) );      // Logs an integer to the console.

Syntax and Options

rng(max[, min[, options]])

| Parameter | Syntax | Description/parameters | | ---------- | ----------------------------------------------------------- | ----------- | | max | rng(max) | Required. An integer. The highest positive number returned from rng(max). | | min | rng(max, min) | An integer. The lowest positive or negative number returned from rng(max, min). | | float | rng(max, min, { float: bool }) | A boolean. Determines whether the returned value will be a float or an integer. | | decimal | rng(max, min, { decimal: n }) | An integer between 0 and 14. Determines how many places which will be displayed by the float. | | skip | rng(max, min, { skip: [integers] }) | An array of integers. Integers which will not be returned. |

Return value

A random integer or float.

Skipped integers will never be returned.

Integers passed with { skip: [integers] } when { float: true } will also cause floats starting with the skipped integers to never be returned.

An integer will be returned when { decimal: 0 }.

Examples

Defaults:
rng(max, min = 0, { float: false, decimal: 14, skip: false })

rng(7);                                                 // Returns an integer between 0 and 7, both inclusive.
rng(7, 2);                                              // Returns an integer between 2 and 7, both inclusive.
rng(7, 2, { float: true });                             // Returns a float between 2.0 and 7.99999999999999, both inclusive.
rng(7, 2, { float: true, decimal: 2 });                 // Returns a float with two decimal places between 2.00 and 7.99, both inclusive.
rng(7, 2, { float: true, decimal: 2, skip: [3, 4] })    // Returns a float with two decimal places between 2.00 and 7.99, both inclusive. Will never return a float between 3.00 and 4.99999999999999.
rng(7, 2, { skip: [3, 4] })                             // Returns an integer between 2 and 7. Will never return 3 or 4.
