PHP's array_product in TypeScript

How to use

Install via yarn add locutus and import: import { array_product } from 'locutus/php/array/array_product'.

Or with CommonJS: const { array_product } = require('locutus/php/array/array_product')

Use a bundler that supports tree-shaking so you only ship the functions you actually use. Vite, webpack, Rollup, and Parcel all handle this. For server-side use this is less of a concern.

Examples

These examples are extracted from test cases that automatically verify our functions against their native counterparts.

#	code	expected result
1	array_product([ 2, 4, 6, 8 ])	384

PHP arrays and TypeScript/JavaScript

Please note that Locutus uses TypeScript/JavaScript objects as substitutes for PHP arrays, they are the closest we can get to this hashtable-like data structure without rolling our own. While many TypeScript/JavaScript implementations preserve the order of object properties, the ECMAScript Language Specification explicitly states that:

The mechanics and order of enumerating the properties is not specified.

In practice most engines preserve insertion order, but if your code depends on key ordering across platforms, keep this caveat in mind.

To influence how Locutus treats objects as arrays, you can check out the locutus.objectsAsArrays setting.

Here's what our current TypeScript equivalent to PHP's array_product looks like.

Copy code

import type { NumericLike, PhpList, PhpNullish, PhpRuntimeValue } from '../_helpers/_phpTypes.ts'

type ProductValue = NumericLike | boolean | PhpNullish
type ProductInput = PhpRuntimeValue

export function array_product(input: PhpList<ProductValue>): number

export function array_product(input: ProductInput): number | null

export function array_product(input: PhpList<ProductValue> | ProductInput): number | null {
  //      discuss at: https://locutus.io/php/array_product/
  // parity verified: PHP 8.3
  //     original by: Waldo Malqui Silva (https://waldo.malqui.info)
  //       example 1: array_product([ 2, 4, 6, 8 ])
  //       returns 1: 384

  let idx = 0
  let product = 1
  let il = 0

  if (!Array.isArray(input)) {
    return null
  }

  il = input.length
  while (idx < il) {
    const numeric = Number(input[idx])
    product *= Number.isNaN(numeric) ? 0 : numeric
    idx++
  }

  return product
}

    product *= Number.isNaN(numeric) ? 0 : numeric
    idx++
  }

  return product
}

Improve this function

Locutus is a community effort following The McDonald's Theory: we ship first iterations, hoping others will improve them. If you see something that could be better, we'd love your contribution.
