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!

Maximum Typed Array Length

NPM version Build Status Coverage Status

Maximum length for a typed array.

Installation

npm install @stdlib/constants-array-max-typed-array-length

Usage

var MAX_TYPED_ARRAY_LENGTH = require( '@stdlib/constants-array-max-typed-array-length' );

MAX_TYPED_ARRAY_LENGTH

Maximum length for a typed array.

var len = MAX_TYPED_ARRAY_LENGTH;
// returns 9007199254740991

Examples

var ctors = require( '@stdlib/array-ctors' );
var MAX_TYPED_ARRAY_LENGTH = require( '@stdlib/constants-array-max-typed-array-length' );

function fill( dtype, len, value ) {
    var ctor;
    var arr;
    var i;
    if ( len > MAX_TYPED_ARRAY_LENGTH ) {
        throw new RangeError( 'invalid argument. The maximum length for a typed array is '+MAX_TYPED_ARRAY_LENGTH+'.' );
    }
    ctor = ctors( dtype );
    arr = new ctor( len );
    for ( i = 0; i < len; i++ ) {
        arr[ i ] = value;
    }
    return arr;
}

var arr = fill( 'float64', 10, 3.14 );
console.log( arr );

try {
    arr = fill( 'float64', 1e300, 3.14 );
} catch ( err ) {
    console.error( err.message );
}
