Float32Array - JavaScript | MDN
Constructor
Float32Array()-
Creates a new
Float32Arrayobject.
Static properties
Also inherits static properties from its parent TypedArray.
Float32Array.BYTES_PER_ELEMENT-
Returns a number value of the element size.
4in the case ofFloat32Array.
Static methods
Inherits static methods from its parent TypedArray.
Instance properties
Also inherits instance properties from its parent TypedArray.
These properties are defined on Float32Array.prototype and shared by all Float32Array instances.
Float32Array.prototype.BYTES_PER_ELEMENT-
Returns a number value of the element size.
4in the case of aFloat32Array. Float32Array.prototype.constructor-
The constructor function that created the instance object. For
Float32Arrayinstances, the initial value is theFloat32Arrayconstructor.
Instance methods
Inherits instance methods from its parent TypedArray.
Examples
Different ways to create a Float32Array
js
// From a length
const float32 = new Float32Array(2);
float32[0] = 42;
console.log(float32[0]); // 42
console.log(float32.length); // 2
console.log(float32.BYTES_PER_ELEMENT); // 4
// From an array
const x = new Float32Array([21, 31]);
console.log(x[1]); // 31
// From another TypedArray
const y = new Float32Array(x);
console.log(y[0]); // 21
// From an ArrayBuffer
const buffer = new ArrayBuffer(32);
const z = new Float32Array(buffer, 4, 4);
console.log(z.byteOffset); // 4
// From an iterable
const iterable = (function* () {
yield* [1, 2, 3];
})();
const float32FromIterable = new Float32Array(iterable);
console.log(float32FromIterable);
// Float32Array [1, 2, 3]
