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!

includes

Test whether an ndarray contains a specified value along one or more dimensions.

Usage

import includes from 'https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/stdlib-js/ndarray-includes@deno/mod.js';

You can also import the following named exports from the package:

import { assign } from 'https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/stdlib-js/ndarray-includes@deno/mod.js';

includes( x, searchElement[, options] )

Tests whether an ndarray contains a specified value along one or more dimensions.

import Float64Array from 'https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/stdlib-js/array-float64@deno/mod.js';
import ndarray from 'https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/stdlib-js/ndarray-ctor@deno/mod.js';

// Create a data buffer:
var xbuf = new Float64Array( [ 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, 5.0, 6.0, 7.0, 8.0, 9.0, 10.0, 11.0, 12.0 ] );

// Define the shape of the input array:
var sh = [ 3, 1, 2 ];

// Define the array strides:
var sx = [ 4, 4, 1 ];

// Define the index offset:
var ox = 1;

// Create an input ndarray:
var x = new ndarray( 'float64', xbuf, sh, sx, ox, 'row-major' );

// Perform reduction:
var out = includes( x, 6.0 );
// returns <ndarray>

var v = out.get();
// returns true

The function accepts the following arguments:

• x: input ndarray.
• searchElement: search element. May be either a scalar or an ndarray. Must be broadcast-compatible with the non-reduced dimensions of input ndarray. Must have a data type which can be (mostly) safely cast to the data type of the input ndarray.
• options: function options (optional).

The function accepts the following options:

• dims: list of dimensions over which to perform a reduction.
• keepdims: boolean indicating whether the reduced dimensions should be included in the returned ndarray as singleton dimensions. Default: false.

By default, the function performs a reduction over all elements in a provided ndarray. To reduce specific dimensions, set the dims option.

import Float64Array from 'https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/stdlib-js/array-float64@deno/mod.js';
import ndarray from 'https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/stdlib-js/ndarray-ctor@deno/mod.js';
import ndarray2array from 'https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/stdlib-js/ndarray-to-array@deno/mod.js';

// Create a data buffer:
var xbuf = new Float64Array( [ 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, 5.0, 6.0, 7.0, 8.0, 9.0, 10.0, 11.0, 12.0 ] );

// Define the shape of the input array:
var sh = [ 3, 1, 2 ];

// Define the array strides:
var sx = [ 4, 4, 1 ];

// Define the index offset:
var ox = 1;

// Create an input ndarray:
var x = new ndarray( 'float64', xbuf, sh, sx, ox, 'row-major' );

// Perform reduction:
var out = includes( x, 6.0, {
    'dims': [ 1, 2 ]
});
// returns <ndarray>

var v = ndarray2array( out );
// returns [ false, true, false ]

By default, the function returns an ndarray having a shape matching only the non-reduced dimensions of the input ndarray (i.e., the reduced dimensions are dropped). To include the reduced dimensions as singleton dimensions in the output ndarray, set the keepdims option to true.

import Float64Array from 'https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/stdlib-js/array-float64@deno/mod.js';
import ndarray from 'https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/stdlib-js/ndarray-ctor@deno/mod.js';
import ndarray2array from 'https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/stdlib-js/ndarray-to-array@deno/mod.js';

// Create a data buffer:
var xbuf = new Float64Array( [ 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, 5.0, 6.0, 7.0, 8.0, 9.0, 10.0, 11.0, 12.0 ] );

// Define the shape of the input array:
var sh = [ 3, 1, 2 ];

// Define the array strides:
var sx = [ 4, 4, 1 ];

// Define the index offset:
var ox = 1;

// Create an input ndarray:
var x = new ndarray( 'float64', xbuf, sh, sx, ox, 'row-major' );

// Perform reduction:
var out = includes( x, 6.0, {
    'dims': [ 1, 2 ],
    'keepdims': true
});
// returns <ndarray>

var v = ndarray2array( out );
// returns [ [ [ false ] ], [ [ true ] ], [ [ false ] ] ]

includes.assign( x, searchElement, out[, options] )

Tests whether an ndarray contains a specified value along one or more dimensions and assigns results to a provided output ndarray.

// Perform reduction:
var out = includes.assign( x, 6.0, y );
