Warm greetings! This lesson introduces data streams, which are essentially continuous datasets. Think of a weather station or a gaming application gathering data per second — both generate data streams! We will master handling these data streams using JavaScript
, learning to access elements, slice segments, and even convert these streams into strings for easier handling.
In JavaScript
, data streams are commonly mirrored as arrays. JavaScript
also facilitates additional data structures like objects and sets.
Consider a straightforward JavaScript
class named DataStream
. This class encapsulates operations related to data streams in our program:
To use it, we create a sample data stream as an instance of our DataStream
class, where each element is an object:
To look into individual elements of a data stream, we use indexing. The get()
method we introduce below fetches the -th element from the data stream:
