iterNonPositiveIntegersSeq

$NPM version$ $Build Status$ $Coverage Status$

Create an iterator which generates a nonpositive integer sequence.

Installation

npm install @stdlib/math-iter-sequences-nonpositive-integers

Usage

var iterNonPositiveIntegersSeq = require( '@stdlib/math-iter-sequences-nonpositive-integers' );

iterNonPositiveIntegersSeq( [options] )

Returns an iterator which generates a nonpositive integer sequence.

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

var v = it.next().value;
// returns 0

v = it.next().value;
// returns -1

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

// ...

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: 9007199254740992.

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 = iterNonPositiveIntegersSeq( opts );
// returns <Object>

var v = it.next().value;
// returns 0

v = it.next().value;
// returns -1

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

Notes

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

Examples

var iterNonPositiveIntegersSeq = require( '@stdlib/math-iter-sequences-nonpositive-integers' );

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

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

Notice

This package is part of stdlib, a standard library for JavaScript and Node.js, with an emphasis on numerical and scientific computing. The library provides a collection of robust, high performance libraries for mathematics, statistics, streams, utilities, and more.
