About stdlib...
We 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!
Generate an acronym for a given string.
import acronym from 'https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/stdlib-js/string-acronym@esm/index.mjs';Generates an acronym for a given string.
var out = acronym( 'the quick brown fox' );
// returns 'QBF'
out = acronym( 'Hard-boiled eggs' );
// returns 'HBE'The function accepts the following options:
- stopwords: list of custom stop words. If not specified, the function uses a default set of stop words from the English language that were deemed words one would likely want to exclude from the acronym generation (a subset of the stop words from @stdlib/datasets/stopwords-en).
By default, the function uses a list of common English stop words. To use a custom list, set the stopwords option.
var out = acronym( 'the quick brown fox', {
'stopwords': []
});
// returns 'TQBF'
out = acronym( 'the quick brown fox', {
'stopwords': [ 'the', 'quick', 'brown', 'fox' ]
});
// returns ''<!DOCTYPE html>
