stdlib-jsWe believe in a future in which the web is a preferred environment for numerical computation. To help realize this future, we've built stdlib. stdlib is a standard library, with an emphasis on numerical and scientific computation, written in JavaScript (and C) for execution in browsers and in Node.js.
The library is fully decomposable, being architected in such a way that you can swap out and mix and match APIs and functionality to cater to your exact preferences and use cases.
When you use stdlib, you can be absolutely certain that you are using the most thorough, rigorous, well-written, studied, documented, tested, measured, and high-quality code out there.
To join us in bringing numerical computing to the web, get started by checking us out on GitHub, and please consider financially supporting stdlib. We greatly appreciate your continued support!
Prototypical Inheritance
[![NPM version][npm-image]][npm-url] [![Build Status][test-image]][test-url] [![Coverage Status][coverage-image]][coverage-url]
Implement prototypical inheritance by replacing the prototype of one constructor with the prototype of another constructor.
bash
npm install @stdlib/utils-inherit
javascript
var inherit = require( '@stdlib/utils-inherit' );
#### inherit( ctor, superCtor )
Implements prototypical inheritance by replacing the prototype of one constructor with the prototype of another constructor.
javascript
function Foo() {
return this;
}
Foo.prototype.beep = function beep() {
return 'boop';
};
function Bar() {
Foo.call( this );
return this;
}
inherit( Bar, Foo );
class with extends.
javascript
var inherit = require( '@stdlib/utils-inherit' );
function Foo() {
return this;
}
Foo.prototype = {};
Foo.prototype.beep = function beep() {
return 'boop';
};
function Bar() {
Foo.call( this );
this._super = Foo.prototype;
return this;
}
// Set up prototypical inheritance:
inherit( Bar, Foo );
var bar = new Bar();
var bool = ( bar instanceof Bar );
// returns true
bool = ( bar instanceof Foo );
// returns true
bool = bar.beep();
// returns 'boop'
