| # array-range | |
| [](http://github.com/badges/stability-badges) | |
| Tiny module to create a new dense array with the specified range. | |
| ```js | |
| var range = require('array-range') | |
| range(3) // -> [ 0, 1, 2 ] | |
| range(1, 4) // -> [ 1, 2, 3 ] | |
| ``` | |
| Mainly useful for functional programming. ES6 examples: | |
| ```js | |
| var array = require('array-range') | |
| array(5).map( x => x*x ) | |
| // -> [ 0, 1, 4, 9, 16 ] | |
| array(2, 10).filter( x => x%2===0 ) | |
| // -> [ 2, 4, 6, 8 ] | |
| ``` | |
| It can also be useful for creating a fixed size dense array. Cleaner than `apply` and does not create an intermediate array: | |
| ```js | |
| array(5) | |
| //vs. | |
| Array.apply(null, new Array(5)) | |
| ``` | |
| ## Usage | |
| [](https://nodei.co/npm/array-range/) | |
| #### `array(start, end)` | |
| Creates a new dense array with a length of `end-start` elements. `start` is inclusive, `end` is exclusive. Negative values also work, e.g. `range(-10, 10)` | |
| #### `array(len)` | |
| Creates a new dense array with `len` number of elements, from zero to `len-1`. | |
| If `len` is unspecified, it defaults to zero (empty array). | |
