Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

array-areas

Select elements in 2D arrays in interesting ways.

Installation

npm install --save array-areas

Usage

import { diagonal, antidiagonal, area, row, col } from 'array-areas'

diagonal

You can select a diagonal selection of element from your array by calling diagonal(arr, rowIndex, columnIndex).

If our array looked like this

┌─────┬─────┬─────┬─────┬─────┐
│  a  │  b  │  c  │  d  │  e  │
├─────┼─────┼─────┼─────┼─────┤
│  f  │  g  │  h  │  i  │  j  │
├─────┼─────┼─────┼─────┼─────┤
│  k  │  l  │  m  │  n  │  o  │
├─────┼─────┼─────┼─────┼─────┤
│  p  │  q  │  r  │  s  │  t  │
├─────┼─────┼─────┼─────┼─────┤
│  u  │  v  │  w  │  x  │  y  │
└─────┴─────┴─────┴─────┴─────┘

And we called diagonal(arr, 2, 1) our result would be a flat array containing

[
  {row: 1, col: 0, val: 'f' },
  {row: 2, col: 1, val: 'l' },
  {row: 3, col: 2, val: 'r' },
  {row: 4, col: 3, val: 'x' },
]

┌─────┬─────┬─────┬─────┬─────┐
│     │     │     │     │     │
├─────┼─────┼─────┼─────┼─────┤
│ 1,0 │     │     │     │     │
├─────┼─────┼─────┼─────┼─────┤
│     │ 2,1 │     │     │     │
├─────┼─────┼─────┼─────┼─────┤
│     │     │ 3,2 │     │     │
├─────┼─────┼─────┼─────┼─────┤
│     │     │     │ 4,3 │     │
└─────┴─────┴─────┴─────┴─────┘

antidiagonal

You can select a anti-diagonal selection of elements from your array by calling antidiagonal(arr, rowIndex, columnIndex).

If our array looked like this

┌─────┬─────┬─────┬─────┬─────┐
│  a  │  b  │  c  │  d  │  e  │
├─────┼─────┼─────┼─────┼─────┤
│  f  │  g  │  h  │  i  │  j  │
├─────┼─────┼─────┼─────┼─────┤
│  k  │  l  │  m  │  n  │  o  │
├─────┼─────┼─────┼─────┼─────┤
│  p  │  q  │  r  │  s  │  t  │
├─────┼─────┼─────┼─────┼─────┤
│  u  │  v  │  w  │  x  │  y  │
└─────┴─────┴─────┴─────┴─────┘

And we called antidiagonal(arr, 1, 2) our result would be a flat array containing

[
  {row: 0, col: 3, val: 'd' },
  {row: 1, col: 2, val: 'g' },
  {row: 2, col: 1, val: 'l' },
  {row: 3, col: 0, val: 'u' },
]

Illustrated here:

┌─────┬─────┬─────┬─────┬─────┐
│     │     │     │ 0,3 │     │
├─────┼─────┼─────┼─────┼─────┤
│     │     │ 1,2 │     │     │
├─────┼─────┼─────┼─────┼─────┤
│     │ 2,1 │     │     │     │
├─────┼─────┼─────┼─────┼─────┤
│ 3,0 │     │     │     │     │
├─────┼─────┼─────┼─────┼─────┤
│     │     │     │     │     │
└─────┴─────┴─────┴─────┴─────┘

area

An area is a group of elements defined by any two elements and composed of all the elements between them. This can be generated by calling arr(arr, [rowIndex, columnIndex], [rowIndex, columnIndex]).

If our array looked like this

┌─────┬─────┬─────┬─────┬─────┐
│  a  │  b  │  c  │  d  │  e  │
├─────┼─────┼─────┼─────┼─────┤
│  f  │  g  │  h  │  i  │  j  │
├─────┼─────┼─────┼─────┼─────┤
│  k  │  l  │  m  │  n  │  o  │
├─────┼─────┼─────┼─────┼─────┤
│  p  │  q  │  r  │  s  │  t  │
├─────┼─────┼─────┼─────┼─────┤
│  u  │  v  │  w  │  x  │  y  │
└─────┴─────┴─────┴─────┴─────┘

Getting an area made of element[2][1] ("l") and element[3][3] ("s") would look like this area(arr, [2,1], [3,3]) and our result would be a 2d array with the area elements.

[
  [
    { row: 2, col: 1, val: 'l' },
    { row: 2, col: 2, val: 'm' },
    { row: 2, col: 3, val: 'n' }
  ],
  [
    { row: 3, col: 1, val: 'q' },
    { row: 3, col: 2, val: 'r' },
    { row: 3, col: 3, val: 's' }
  ]
]

├─────┼─────┬─────┬─────┼─────┤
│  u  │  v  │  w  │  x  │  y  │
└─────┴─────┴─────┴─────┴─────┘

col

You can select a column of elements from your array by calling col(arr, columnIndex).

If our array looked like this

├─────┼─────┼─────┼─────┼─────┤
│  u  │  v  │  w  │  x  │  y  │
└─────┴─────┴─────┴─────┴─────┘

And we called col(arr, 1) our result would be a flat array containing
