@stdlib/array-base-reject v0.2.1

reject

Return a shallow copy of an array containing only those elements which fail a test implemented by a predicate function.

Installation

npm install @stdlib/array-base-reject

Usage

var reject = require( '@stdlib/array-base-reject' );

reject( x, predicate[, thisArg] )

Returns a shallow copy of an array containing only those elements which fail a test implemented by a predicate function.

function isPositive( value ) {
    return ( value > 0 );
}

var x = [ 1, -2, -3, 4 ];

var out = reject( x, isPositive );
// returns [ -2, -3 ]

The predicate function is provided three arguments:

• value: current array element.
• index: current array element index.
• arr: input array.

To set the predicate function execution context, provide a thisArg.

function predicate( value ) {
    this.count += 1;
    return ( value > 0 );
}

var x = [ 1, 2, -3, 4 ];

var context = {
    'count': 0
};

var out = reject( x, predicate, context );
// returns [ -3 ]

var cnt = context.count;
// returns 4

Notes

• The function performs a linear scan and always returns a generic array.

Examples

var discreteUniform = require( '@stdlib/random-array-discrete-uniform' );
var isPositiveInteger = require( '@stdlib/assert-is-positive-integer' ).isPrimitive;
var naryFunction = require( '@stdlib/utils-nary-function' );
var reject = require( '@stdlib/array-base-reject' );

var x = discreteUniform( 10, -5, 5, {
    'dtype': 'int32'
});
// returns <Int32Array>

var out = reject( x, naryFunction( isPositiveInteger, 1 ) );
// returns <Int32Array>
