Create an unstable version of collections
sample()
. This version supports both arrays and iterables.Refactored away the
randomInteger
function in favour of doing it inline. This is because:It is hard to compare in the the diff in the pull request
Here is a simplified version to see the general difference
I considered also adding a special case for
string
input usingString.prototype.split("")
because that is faster thanArray.from(iterable)
, however I decided against it because philosophically splitting is not using the string iterator even if it the produces the same.It also required casting typescript types.
The perf difference with the string case (on my machine)
