Array map

By Zevan | January 2, 2010

CLICK HERE TO COPY
Actionscript:

var a:Array = [1,2,3,4,5,6];

var double:Array = a.map(function():int{return arguments[0] * 2});

trace(double);

/*outputs:

2,4,6,8,10,12

*/

A condensed example of Array.map()
Here is the same thing written in haskell:

a = [1,2,3,4,5,6]
double = map (*2) a

main = print double
