Instance Methods

Create new Data

const x = new Data(
    array=[["Getser", "Microsoft", 7, 28], ["Wikan", "Google", 8, 27], ["Miki", "Bitcoin", 9, 29]], 
    cols=["name", "company", "score", "age"]
);

Print

print() is print data to console and return the Data instance.

x.print();

print:1

----------------------------------------

Get Print

getPrint() is return print text as string, useful for showing the result in the front end.

Get Array

getArray() is return array of the Data instance.

x.getArray(); // [["Getser", "Microsoft", 7, 28], ["Wikan", "Google", 8, 27], ["Miki", "Bitcoin", 9, 29]]

Get Col Names

getColNames() is return column names of the Data instance.

x.getColNames(); // ['name', 'company', 'score', 'age']

Get Col Data Types

getColDataTypes() return column data types dictionary.

x.getColDataTypes().name; // string

Get Object

getObject() is return column object of the Data instance.

Get array object property value to object which using column names as key.

const y = x.getObject();
y.company; // ['Microsoft', 'Google', 'Bitcoin']
y.name; // ['Getser', 'Wikan', 'Miki']

Get Row

getRow(row:int) is return selected row of the array in the Data instance.

x.getRow(1); // ['Wikan', 'Google', 8, 27]

Get Column

getColumn(col:str) is return selected column of the array in Data instance.

x.getCol('company'); // ['Microsoft', 'Google', 'Bitcoin']

Get Cell

getCell(row:int, col:str) is return selected cell of the array in Data instance.

x.getSize(); // [3, 4]

Rename Col

renameCol(oldName:str, newName:str) is rename the column name and return the Data instance.

const y = new Data(
    array=[["Getser", "Microsoft", 7, 28], ["Wikan", "Google", 8, 27], ["Miki", "Bitcoin", 9, 29]], 
    cols=["name", "company", "score", "age"]
);

y.print().renameCol(oldName="score", newName="employment_time").print();
