- sentence (String): The string to process.
Returns
- (Object): Returns an object with key-value pair summary per letter.
Example
_.countLetters('Hello World'); // => { h: 1, // e: 1, // l: 3, // o: 2, // w: 1, // r: 1, // d: 1 }

Arguments
- allItems (Array): Array of strings to process.
- itemsToCount (Object): Object with keys of what to count paired with boolean values.
Returns
- (Object): Returns an object with key-value pair count for each matching key with true values.
Example
const firstNames = [ "Hello", "World", "Foo", "Bar", "Code", "World", "Bar", ]; _.countOnly(firstNames, { World: true, Blaster: true, Bar: false}); // => { World: 2 }
eqArrays(array1, array2)
: Returns a boolean value depending whether or not both arrays are strictly equal to each other.Since
1.0.1
Arguments
- array1 (Array): First array for comparison.
- array2 (Array): Second array for comparison.
Returns
- (Boolean): Returns an boolean value (true or false) if both arrays are strictly equal.
Example
const array1 = [1, [2], 3]; const array2 = [1, [2], 3]; _.eqArrays(array1, array2); // => true
eqObjects(object1, object2)
: Returns a boolean value depending whether or not both objects are strictly equal to each other.Since
1.0.1
Arguments
- object1 (Object): First object for comparison.
- object2 (Object): Second object for comparison.
Returns
- (Boolean): Returns an boolean value (true or false) if both objects are strictly equal.
Example
const object1 = {a: 1, b: {c: 2}, d: 2}; const object2 = {a: 1, d: 2, b: {c: 2}}; _.eqObjects(object1, object2); // => true
findKey(object, callback)
: Returns key of object if the value of the key is truthy when using with the callback.Since
1.0.1
Arguments
- object (Object): The object to evaluate.
- callback (Function): Callback function that takes in objectkey as argument.
Returns
- (Object): Returns first key with truthy callback(value).
Example
const toys = () => { "car": { shelflife: 3}, "ball": { shelflife: 2}, "doll": { shelflife: 4), "device": { shelflife: 2}, "top": { shelflife: 5}, } _.findKey(toys, toy => toy.shelflife === 2); // => "ball"
flatten(array)
: Returns an array without any nesting.Since
1.0.1
Arguments
- array (Array): The array to evaluate.
Returns

const array = [1, 2, [3, 4], 5, [6]]; _.flatten(array); // => [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]
head(array)
: Returns the first item in the array.Since
1.0.0
Arguments
- array (Array): The array to process.
Returns
- (Array): Returns the first element of array.
Example
_.head(['a', 'b', 'c']); // => 'a' _.head([1, 2, 3]); // => 1
letterPositions(sentence)
: Returns an object with key-value pairs that correspond to the index locations of each letter from provided string.Since
1.0.1
Arguments
- sentence (String): The string to evaluate.
Returns
- (Object): Returns object index locations of each letter in the sentence.
Example
const sentence = "hello"; _.letterPositions(sentence); // => { h: [0], // e: [1], // l: [2, 3], // o: [4] }
map(array, callback)
: Returns a new array with each value modified based on the callback.Since
1.0.1
Arguments
- array (Array): The array to evaluate.
- callback (Function): Callback function that modifies each objectkey.
Returns
- (Object): Returns new array where each value has been modified by the callback function.
Example
const numbers = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]; _.map(numbers, n => n * 2); // => [2, 4, 6, 8, 10]
middle(array)
: Returns the middle item of the first of the array.Since
1.0.0
Arguments
- array (Array): The array to process.
Returns
- (Array): Returns the middle element of array. If the array length is even, it will return two elements.
Example
_.middle(['a', 'b', 'c']); // => 'b' _.middle([1, 2, 3, 4]); // => '[2, 3]
