iterate

Iterate over a callback n times

Usage

A bit like forEach meets reduce. Useful for running a function n number of times to generate a value. The _.iterate function takes a count (the number of times to run the callback), a callback function, and an initial value. The callback is run count many times as a reducer and the accumulated value is then returned.

import * as 
import _
_ from 'radashi'

const 
const value: number
value = 
import _
_.
function iterate<number>(count: number, func: (currentValue: number, iteration: number) => number, initValue: number): number
Like a reduce but does not require an array. Only need a number and
will iterate the function as many times as specified.
NOTE: This is NOT zero indexed. If you pass count=5 you will get 1,
2, 3, 4, 5 iteration in the callback function.
@see ― https://radashi.js.org/reference/array/iterate
@example 
iterate(3, (total, i) => total + i, 0)
// 6
@version ― 12.1.0
iterate(
  4,
  (
acc: number
acc, 
idx: number
idx) => {
    return 
acc: number
acc + 
idx: number
idx
  },
  0,
) // => 10

Note, this is NOT zero indexed. If you pass a count of 5 you will get an index of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 in the callback function.
