The dataView.setInt32() is an inbuilt function in dataView that is used to store a signed 32-bit integer at the specified location i.e, at byte offset from the start of the dataView.
Syntax:
dataView.setInt32(byteOffset)
Parameters: It has the parameter byteOffset which is offset in a byte and it says from the start of the view where to read the data.
Return value: This function does not return anything.
Below are examples of the dataView.setInt32() Method.
Example 1:
javascript
var buffer = new ArrayBuffer(20);var dataview1 = new DataView(buffer, 0, 10);dataview1.setInt32(1, 12);console.log(dataview1.getInt8(1)); |
Output:
12
Example 2:
javascript
// Creating buffer with size in bytevar buffer = new ArrayBuffer(20);// Creating a viewvar dataview1 = new DataView(buffer, 0, 10);// put the data 56 at slot 1dataview1.setInt32(1, 56);console.log(dataview1.getInt32(1)); |
Output:
56
Example 3:This function does not accept float value that is why it convert float value to integer value. It can be seen from the output of the below program should give output as 3.14 (the value of PI) but this function convert this value to 3.
javascript
// Creating buffer with size in bytevar buffer = new ArrayBuffer(20);// Creating a view with slot from o to 10var dataview1 = new DataView(buffer, 0, 10);// put the value of PI at slot 1dataview1.setInt32(1, Math.PI);console.log(dataview1.getInt32(1)); |
Output:
3
Example 4: When there is no data to be stored, then it returns zero (0).
javascript
// Creating buffer with size in bytevar buffer = new ArrayBuffer(20);// Creating a viewvar dataview1 = new DataView(buffer, 0, 10);// putting no data at slot 1dataview1.setInt32(1);console.log(dataview1.getInt32(1)); |
Output:
0
