@stdlib/ndarray-base-dtype-enum2str NPM

enum2str

Return the data type string associated with an ndarray data type enumeration constant.

Installation

npm install @stdlib/ndarray-base-dtype-enum2str

Usage

var enum2str = require( '@stdlib/ndarray-base-dtype-enum2str' );

enum2str( dtype )

Returns the data type string associated with an ndarray data type enumeration constant.

var str2enum = require( '@stdlib/ndarray-base-dtype-str2enum' );

var v = str2enum( 'float64' );
// returns <number>

var dt = enum2str( v );
// returns 'float64'

If unable to resolve a data type string, the function returns null.

var v = enum2str( -999999999 );
// returns null

Examples

var str2enum = require( '@stdlib/ndarray-base-dtype-str2enum' );
var enum2str = require( '@stdlib/ndarray-base-dtype-enum2str' );

var str = enum2str( str2enum( 'float64' ) );
// returns 'float64'

str = enum2str( str2enum( 'float32' ) );
// returns 'float32'

str = enum2str( str2enum( 'int32' ) );
// returns 'int32'

str = enum2str( str2enum( 'int16' ) );
// returns 'int16'

str = enum2str( str2enum( 'int8' ) );
// returns 'int8'

str = enum2str( str2enum( 'uint32' ) );
// returns 'uint32'

str = enum2str( str2enum( 'uint16' ) );
// returns 'uint16'

str = enum2str( str2enum( 'uint8' ) );
// returns 'uint8'

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.
