Executes the callback n
times, returning an array of the results of each callback execution. The callback is bound to thisArg
and invoked with one argument; (index).
n
(number): The number of times to execute the callback.callback
(Function): The function called per iteration.[thisArg]
(*): The this
binding of callback
.(Array): Returns an array of the results of each callback
execution.
var diceRolls = _.times(3, _.partial(_.random, 1, 6)); // => [3, 6, 4] _.times(3, function(n) { mage.castSpell(n); }); // => calls `mage.castSpell(n)` three times, passing `n` of `0`, `1`, and `2` respectively _.times(3, function(n) { this.cast(n); }, mage); // => also calls `mage.castSpell(n)` three times
The inverse of _.escape
this method converts the HTML entities &amp;
, &lt;
, &gt;
, &quot;
, and &#39;
in string
to their corresponding characters.
string
(string): The string to unescape.(string): Returns the unescaped string.
_.unescape('Fred, Barney &amp; Pebbles'); // => 'Fred, Barney & Pebbles'
Generates a unique ID. If prefix
is provided the ID will be appended to it.
[prefix]
(string): The value to prefix the ID with.(string): Returns the unique ID.
_.uniqueId('contact_'); // => 'contact_104' _.uniqueId(); // => '105'
The semantic version number.
An object used to flag environments features.
Detect if an arguments
object's [[Class]] is resolvable (all but Firefox < 4
, IE < 9
).
Detect if arguments
objects are Object
objects (all but Narwhal and Opera < 10.5
).
Detect if name
or message
properties of Error.prototype
are enumerable by default. (IE < 9
, Safari < 5.1
)
Detect if prototype
properties are enumerable by default.
Firefox < 3.6
, Opera > 9.50
- Opera < 11.60
, and Safari < 5.1
(if the prototype or a property on the prototype has been set) incorrectly sets a function's prototype
property [[Enumerable]] value to true
.
Detect if functions can be decompiled by Function#toString
(all but PS3 and older Opera mobile browsers & avoided in Windows 8
apps).
Detect if Function#name
is supported (all but IE).
Detect if arguments
object indexes are non-enumerable (Firefox < 4
, IE < 9
, PhantomJS, Safari < 5.1
).
Detect if properties shadowing those on Object.prototype
are non-enumerable.
In IE < 9
an objects own properties, shadowing non-enumerable ones, are made non-enumerable as well (a.k.a the JScript [[DontEnum]] bug).
Detect if own properties are iterated after inherited properties (all but IE < 9
).
Detect if Array#shift
and Array#splice
augment array-like objects correctly.
Firefox < 10
, IE compatibility mode, and IE < 9
have buggy Array shift()
and splice()
functions that fail to remove the last element, value[0]
, of array-like objects even though the length
property is set to 0
. The shift()
method is buggy in IE 8
compatibility mode, while splice()
is buggy regardless of mode in IE < 9
and buggy in compatibility mode in IE 9
.
Detect lack of support for accessing string characters by index.
IE < 8
can't access characters by index and IE 8
can only access characters by index on string literals.
By default, the template delimiters used by Lo-Dash are similar to those in embedded Ruby (ERB). Change the following template settings to use alternative delimiters.
Used to detect data
property values to be HTML-escaped.
Used to detect code to be evaluated.
Used to import variables into the compiled template.
A reference to the lodash
function.
Used to detect data
property values to inject.
Used to reference the data object in the template text.
