callbackFn

A function to execute for each element in the typed array. Its return value is added as a single element in the new typed array. The function is called with the following arguments:

element

The current element being processed in the typed array.

index

The index of the current element being processed in the typed array.

array

The typed arraymap() was called upon.

thisArgOptional

A value to use asthis when executingcallbackFn. Seeiterative methods.

A new typed array with each element being the result of the callback function.

SeeArray.prototype.map() for more details. This method is not generic and can only be called on typed array instances.

The following code takes a typed array and creates a new typed array containing thesquare roots of the numbers in the first typed array.

const numbers = new Uint8Array([1, 4, 9]);const roots = numbers.map(Math.sqrt);// roots is now: Uint8Array [1, 2, 3],// numbers is still Uint8Array [1, 4, 9]

The following code shows howmap() works when a function requiring oneargument is used with it. The argument will automatically be assigned to each element ofthe typed array asmap() loops through the original typed array.

const numbers = new Uint8Array([1, 4, 9]);const doubles = numbers.map((num) => num * 2);// doubles is now Uint8Array [2, 8, 18]// numbers is still Uint8Array [1, 4, 9]
