instance method Enumerable#eachSlice
Enumerable#eachSlice(number[, iterator = Prototype.K[, context]]) → Enumerable
-
number
(Number
) – The number of items to include in each slice. -
iterator
(Function
) – An optional function to use to transform each element before it's included in the slice; if this is not provided, the element itself is included. -
context
(Object
) – An optional object to use asthis
within calls to the iterator.
Groups items into chunks of the given size. The final "slice" may have
fewer than number
items; it won't "pad" the last group with empty
values. For that behavior, use Enumerable#inGroupsOf
.
Example
var students = [ { name: 'Sunny', age: 20 }, { name: 'Audrey', age: 21 }, { name: 'Matt', age: 20 }, { name: 'Amelie', age: 26 }, { name: 'Will', age: 21 } ]; students.eachSlice(3, function(student) { return student.name; }); // -> [['Sunny', 'Audrey', 'Matt'], ['Amelie', 'Will']]
