MoreMath

npm Build Status Coverage Status Dependency Status

MoreMath is a library that provides useful Math functions -- functions that either should have been part of the core Math package from the start, or that are otherwise commonly needed.

Install

npm install moremath

MoreMath is written in TypeScript. It can be used both in JavaScript and TypeScript, but in TypeScript projects you get the benefit of code completion by default.

Usage

MoreMath can be used as a separate package (in which it acts like a Static Class) or by importing the specific functions one need.

Import the whole package:

// Import everything (JavaScript ES5)
var MoreMath = require('moremath');

// Import everything (JavaScript ES6 and TypeScript)
import MoreMath from 'moremath';

Then use any of its functions:

let value = MoreMath.clamp(11, 0, 10); // 10

Another way to use it is just importing the functions you want then using them directly.

Import a function:

// Import clamp() (JavaScript ES5)
var clamp = require('moremath').clamp;

// Import clamp() (JavaScript ES6 and TypeScript)
import { clamp } from 'moremath';

Then use it:

let value = clamp(11, 0, 10); // 10

The advantage of importing only specific functions is that the resulting code is shorter and easier to read, and JavaScript packagers that perform tree-shaking can get rid of functions that are not used from inside the MoreMath library. In the above case, for example, clamp would be the only exported function included in your final project.

Full reference

map(value:number, oldMin:number, oldMax:number, newMin:number = 0, newMax:number = 1, shouldClamp:Boolean = false):number

Maps a value from a range, determined by old minimum and maximum values, to a new range, determined by new minimum and maximum values. These minimum and maximum values are referential; the new value is not clamped by them.

Parameters:

  • value: The value to be re-mapped.
  • oldMin: The previous minimum value.
  • oldMax: The previous maximum value.
  • newMin: The new minimum value.
  • newMax: The new maximum value.

Returns:

  • The new value, mapped to the new range.

clamp(value:number, min:number = 0, max:number = 1):number

Clamps a number to a range, by restricting it to a minimum and maximum values: if the passed value is lower than the minimum value, it's replaced by the minimum; if it's higher than the maximum value, it's replaced by the maximum; if neither, it's unchanged.

Parameters:

  • value: The value to be clamped.
  • min: Minimum value allowed.
  • max: Maximum value allowed.

Returns:

  • The newly clamped value.

clampAuto(value:number, clamp1:number = 0, clamp2:number = 1):number

Clamps a number to a range, by restricting it to a range of values: if the passed value is lower than the minimum value, it's replaced by the minimum; if it's higher than the maximum value, it's replaced by the maximum; if neither, it's unchanged.

This function is similar to clamp(), but it switches the range values if necessary, without assuming the first value is the lower value.

Parameters:

  • value: The value to be clamped.
  • clamp1: One end of the allowed range.
  • clamp2: Other end of the allowed range.

Returns:

  • The newly clamped value.

getHighestPowerOfTwo(value:number):number

Returns a power of two value that is higher than the passed value.

Parameters:

  • value: The minimum value desired.

Returns:

  • A power of two value that is equal to or higher than the input value.

getUniqueNumber():number

Returns a unique number for this session. This is simply a global integer sequence, starting at 1.

Returns:

  • A unique integer for the session.

isPowerOfTwo(value:number):Boolean

Returns whether a number is a power of two (2, 4, 8, 16, etc).

Parameters:

  • value: A number to be tested.

Returns:

  • Whether the input number is a power of two.

rangeMod(value:number, min:number, pseudoMax:number):number

Restricts a value to a range, by restricting it to a minimum and maximum values but folding the value to the range instead of simply clamping to the minimum and maximum. It works like a more powerful Modulo function because it allows arbitrary ranges.

Parameters:

  • value: The value to be clamped.
  • min: Minimum value allowed.
  • max: Pseudo-maximum value allowed. This value is never reached; the minimum would be used instead.

Returns:

  • The new value, mapped to the range.

Examples:

console.log(rangeMod(14, 0, 10));
// Result: 4
console.log(rangeMod(360, 0, 360));
// Result: 0
console.log(rangeMod(360, -180, 180));
// Result: 0
console.log(rangeMod(21, 0, 10));
// Result: 1
console.log(rangeMod(-98, 0, 100));
// Result: 2
