Notes

Arrays

Contains(value, search)

search.some(item => value.includes(item))

The code assumes that search is an array of values.

Open

ContainsAll(value, search)

search.every(item => value.includes(item))

Open

ContainsOnly(value, search)

value.length == search.length && search.every(item => value.includes(item))

Open

Duplicates(value)

[...new Set(value.filter((item, index, arr) => arr.indexOf(item) !== index))]

Open

First(list)

list[0]

Arrays in JavaScript start at index zero (0).

Open

FormulaMap(list, formula)

list.map(item => {

// Apply the mapping to item.

return item;

})

Open

In(search, value)

value.includes(search)

Open

Last(list)

list[list.length - 1]

Arrays in JavaScript start at index zero (0).

Open

List(value1, value2, value3)

[value1, value2, value3]

Open

ListCombine(value1, value2, value3)

value1.concat(value2, value3)

Open

Nth(list, position)

list[position]

Arrays in JavaScript start at index zero (0).

list.sort((a, b) =>

compareBy(a) > compareBy(b) ? 1 : -1)

[0]

value.slice(start, end)

End index non-inclusive.

Open

Sort(dataset, ascending, sortBy, sortByCount)

sortBy(a) > sortBy(b) ? 1 : -1)

JS sorts lexographically
