JavaScript typedArray.from() Property

The typedArray.from() is an inbuilt function in JavaScript which is used to construct a new typedArray from a normal array or any iterable object.

List of different typedArrays are specified in the table below:

Int8Array(); Int16Array(); Uint32Array();
Uint8Array(); Uint16Array(); Float32Array();
Uint8ClampedArray(); Int32Array(); Float64Array();

Syntax:

typedArray.from(source, mapFn, thisArg)

Parameters: It accepts three parameters which are specified below-

  • source: It is a normal array or any iterable object for converting to a typedArray.
  • mapFn: It is optional and it is map function to call on every element of the typedArray.
  • thisArg: It is optional and it is the value to be used while executing mapFn function.

Return value: It returns a new typedArray instance. 

Example 1: 

javascript




// Constructing an iterable object
var a = new Set([ 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 ]);
var b = new Set([ 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 ]);
var c = new Set([ 1, 3, 5, 7, 9 ]);
var d = new Set([ 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 ]);
  
// Calling from() function
A = Uint8Array.from(a);
B = Uint8Array.from(b);
C = Uint8Array.from(c);
D = Uint8Array.from(d);
  
// Printing new typedArray instance
console.log(A);
console.log(B);
console.log(C);
console.log(D);


Output:

5, 10, 15, 20, 25
1, 2, 3, 4, 5
1, 3, 5, 7, 9
2, 4, 6, 8, 10

Example 2: 

javascript




// Calling from() function
A = Uint16Array.from('123456');
B = Uint16Array.from('80397418327');
  
// Printing new typedArray instance
console.log(A);
console.log(B);


Output:

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6
8, 0, 3, 9, 7, 4, 1, 8, 3, 2, 7

Example 3: 

javascript




// Constructing an iterable object
var a = new Set([ 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 ]);
var b = new Set([ 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 ]);
var c = new Set([ 1, 3, 5, 7, 9 ]);
var d = new Set([ 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 ]);
  
// Calling from() function
A = Uint8Array.from(a, x => x + 1);
B = Uint8Array.from(b, x => x + 2);
C = Uint8Array.from(c, x => x * 2);  
D = Uint8Array.from(d);
  
// Printing new typedArray instance
console.log(A);
console.log(B);
console.log(C);
console.log(D);


Output:

6, 11, 16, 21, 26
3, 4, 5, 6, 7
2, 6, 10, 14, 18
2, 4, 6, 8, 10
