About stdlib...

We believe in a future in which the web is a preferred environment for numerical computation. To help realize this future, we've built stdlib. stdlib is a standard library, with an emphasis on numerical and scientific computation, written in JavaScript (and C) for execution in browsers and in Node.js.

The library is fully decomposable, being architected in such a way that you can swap out and mix and match APIs and functionality to cater to your exact preferences and use cases.

When you use stdlib, you can be absolutely certain that you are using the most thorough, rigorous, well-written, studied, documented, tested, measured, and high-quality code out there.

To join us in bringing numerical computing to the web, get started by checking us out on GitHub, and please consider financially supporting stdlib. We greatly appreciate your continued support!

take2d

NPM version Build Status Coverage Status

Take elements from a two-dimensional nested array.

Installation

npm install @stdlib/array-base-take2d

Usage

var take2d = require( '@stdlib/array-base-take2d' );

take2d( x, indices, dimension, mode )

Takes elements along a specified dimension from a two-dimensional nested array according to a specified index mode.

var x = [ [ 1, 2 ], [ 3, 4 ] ];
var indices = [ 1, 1, 0, 0, -1, -1 ];

var y = take2d( x, indices, 1, 'normalize' );
// returns [ [ 2, 2, 1, 1, 2, 2 ], [ 4, 4, 3, 3, 4, 4 ] ]

The function accepts the following arguments:

  • x: input nested array.
  • indices: list of indices.
  • dimension: dimension along which to take elements. If provided a negative integer, the dimension is resolved relative to the last dimension, with the last dimension being -1.
  • mode: index mode specifying how to handle an index which is out-of-bounds.

If indices is an empty array, the function returns empty arrays along the specified dimension.

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

var y = take2d( x, [], 1, 'throw' );
// returns [ [], [] ]

var z = take2d( x, [], 0, 'throw' );
// returns []

Notes

  • The function does not deep copy nested array elements.

Examples

var filled2dBy = require( '@stdlib/array-base-filled2d-by' );
var filledBy = require( '@stdlib/array-base-filled-by' );
var discreteUniform = require( '@stdlib/random-base-discrete-uniform' );
var take2d = require( '@stdlib/array-base-take2d' );

// Generate a random array:
var shape = [ 5, 5 ];
var x = filled2dBy( shape, discreteUniform.factory( 0, 100 ) );
console.log( x );

// Generate an array of random indices:
var N = discreteUniform( 5, 15 );
var indices = filledBy( N, discreteUniform.factory( 0, shape[1]-1 ) );
console.log( indices );

// Take a random sample of elements from `x`:
var y = take2d( x, indices, 1, 'throw' );
console.log( y );

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.
