title: "DropWhile"
date: 2025-01-16T00:00:00-00:00

`DropWhile` drops elements from the beginning of the slice while the predicate returns true. It returns the remaining elements starting from the first element where the predicate returns false.
```go
package main
import (
"fmt"
u "github.com/rjNemo/underscore"
)
func main() {
nums := []int{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9}
lessThan5 := func(n int) bool { return n < 5 }
fmt.Println(u.DropWhile(nums, lessThan5)) // [5, 6, 7, 8, 9]
words := []string{"apple", "banana", "cherry", "date"}
shortWords := func(s string) bool { return len(s) < 6 }
fmt.Println(u.DropWhile(words, shortWords)) // ["banana", "cherry", "date"]
}
```

`First` returns the first element of the slice. Returns an error if the slice is empty.
```go
package main
import (
"fmt"
u "github.com/rjNemo/underscore"
)
func main() {
nums := []int{1, 2, 3, 4, 5}
first, err := u.First(nums)
if err != nil {
panic(err)

// Handle empty slice
empty := []int{}
_, err = u.First(empty)
if err != nil {
fmt.Println("Error:", err) // Error: underscore: empty slice
}

`FirstN` returns the first n elements of the slice. If n is greater than the slice length, returns the entire slice. If n is less than or equal to 0, returns an empty slice.
```go
package main
import (
"fmt"
u "github.com/rjNemo/underscore"
)
func main() {
nums := []int{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9}

fmt.Println(u.FirstN(nums, 0)) // []
fmt.Println(u.FirstN(nums, 10)) // [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]
fmt.Println(u.FirstN(nums, -5)) // []

title: "FoldRight"
date: 2025-01-16T00:00:00-00:00
---
`FoldRight` is like Reduce but processes elements from right to left. Also known as foldr in Haskell. Important for non-associative operations where the order of evaluation matters.
```go
package main
import (
"fmt"
u "github.com/rjNemo/underscore"
)
func main() {
// Subtraction is non-associative
nums := []int{1, 2, 3}
// FoldRight: 1 - (2 - (3 - 0)) = 1 - (2 - 3) = 1 - (-1) = 2
result := u.FoldRight(nums, 0, func(n, acc int) int { return n - acc })
fmt.Println(result) // 2
// Compare with Reduce (left fold): (0 - 1) - 2 - 3 = -6
leftResult := u.Reduce(nums, func(n, acc int) int { return acc - n }, 0)
fmt.Println(leftResult) // -6
// Building a list in order
buildList := u.FoldRight(nums, []int{}, func(n int, acc []int) []int {
return append([]int{n}, acc...)
})
fmt.Println(buildList) // [1, 2, 3]
// String concatenation
words := []string{"a", "b", "c"}
concat := u.FoldRight(words, "", func(s, acc string) string { return s + acc })
fmt.Println(concat) // "abc"

`Init` returns all elements except the last one, and the last element separately. Returns an empty slice and zero value if the input slice is empty. Useful for destructuring lists from the right.
```go
package main
import (
"fmt"
u "github.com/rjNemo/underscore"
)
func main() {
nums := []int{1, 2, 3, 4, 5}
init, last := u.Init(nums)
fmt.Println(init) // [1, 2, 3, 4]
fmt.Println(last) // 5
// Single element
single, val := u.Init([]int{42})
fmt.Println(single) // []
fmt.Println(val) // 42
// Empty slice
empty, zero := u.Init([]int{})
fmt.Println(empty) // []
fmt.Println(zero) // 0
}

date: 2025-01-16T00:00:00-00:00
---
`Intersperse` inserts a separator between each element of the slice. Returns an empty slice if the input is empty. Returns the original element if the input has only one element.
```go
package main
import (
"fmt"
u "github.com/rjNemo/underscore"
)
func main() {
nums := []int{1, 2, 3, 4, 5}
fmt.Println(u.Intersperse(nums, 0)) // [1, 0, 2, 0, 3, 0, 4, 0, 5]
// Useful for formatting
words := []string{"apple", "banana", "cherry"}
fmt.Println(u.Intersperse(words, ",")) // ["apple", ",", "banana", ",", "cherry"]
// Single element - no separator added
single := []int{42}
fmt.Println(u.Intersperse(single, 0)) // [42]
}

title: "ParallelReduce"
date: 2025-01-16T00:00:00-00:00
---
`ParallelReduce` applies a reduction function in parallel using a worker pool. The operation must be associative and commutative for correct results. If workers <= 0, defaults to GOMAXPROCS. On error, the first error is returned and processing is canceled.
**Note:** This is an experimental function. Order of operations is not guaranteed, so use only with associative and commutative operations (like addition, multiplication, min, max).
```go
package main
import (
"context"
"fmt"
"time"
u "github.com/rjNemo/underscore"
)
func main() {
nums := []int{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10}
ctx := context.Background()
// Parallel sum (safe - addition is associative and commutative)
result, err := u.ParallelReduce(ctx, nums, 4, func(ctx context.Context, n int, acc int) (int, error) {
// Simulate expensive computation
time.Sleep(10 * time.Millisecond)
return n + acc, nil
}, 0)
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
fmt.Println(result) // Result will vary due to parallel execution
// With context cancellation
ctx, cancel := context.WithTimeout(context.Background(), 50*time.Millisecond)
defer cancel()
_, err = u.ParallelReduce(ctx, nums, 4, func(ctx context.Context, n int, acc int) (int, error) {
time.Sleep(100 * time.Millisecond)
return n + acc, nil
}, 0)
if err != nil {
fmt.Println("Operation was cancelled:", err)
}
}
```
**Warning:** Do not use ParallelReduce for non-associative operations like subtraction or division, as the results will be unpredictable due to parallel execution order.

`Replicate` creates a slice containing count copies of value. Returns an empty slice if count is less than or equal to 0. Useful for initialization and testing.
```go
package main
import (
"fmt"
u "github.com/rjNemo/underscore"
)
func main() {
// Basic usage
fmt.Println(u.Replicate(3, "hello"))
// ["hello", "hello", "hello"]

// [0, 0, 0, 0, 0]
// Zero count
fmt.Println(u.Replicate(0, 42))
// []
// Negative count
fmt.Println(u.Replicate(-5, "x"))
// []
// Use case: initialize with default values
defaultScores := u.Replicate(10, 100)
fmt.Println(defaultScores)
// [100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100]
// Use case: creating separators
separator := u.Replicate(40, "-")
fmt.Println(u.Reduce(separator, func(s, acc string) string { return acc + s }, ""))

`Sliding` creates a sliding window view of the slice with the specified window size. Returns an empty slice if size is less than or equal to 0 or greater than the slice length. Useful for moving averages, n-grams, and pattern matching.
```go
package main

"fmt"
u "github.com/rjNemo/underscore"

// N-grams for text
words := []string{"the", "quick", "brown", "fox"}
bigrams := u.Sliding(words, 2)
fmt.Println(bigrams) // [["the", "quick"], ["quick", "brown"], ["brown", "fox"]]
// Moving average example
data := []int{10, 20, 30, 40, 50}
windows := u.Sliding(data, 3)
for _, window := range windows {
sum := 0
for _, v := range window {
sum += v
}
avg := sum / len(window)
fmt.Printf("Window: %v, Average: %d\n", window, avg)

// Window: [10 20 30], Average: 20
// Window: [20 30 40], Average: 30
// Window: [30 40 50], Average: 40
