map_array(3) LPC Library Functions map_array(3) NAME map_array() - modify an array of elements via application of a function SYNOPSIS mixed *map_array( mixed *arr, string fun, object ob, mixed extra, ... ); mixed *map_array( mixed *arr, function f, mixed extra, ... ); DESCRIPTION Returns an array holding the items of `arr' mapped through either `ob->fun()' or 'f'. The function is called for each element in 'arr' with that element as a parameter. A second parameter `extra' is sent in each call if given. Principal function: foreach (index) arr[index] = ob->fun(arr[index],extra); The value returned by `ob->fun(arr[.index.], extra)' replaces the existing element in the array. If `arr' is not an array, then 0 will be returned. SEE ALSO filter_array(3), sort_array(3), map(3) MudOS Last change: 5 Sep 1994 1
