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!

# iterHavercos

[![NPM version][npm-image]][npm-url] [![Build Status][test-image]][test-url] [![Coverage Status][coverage-image]][coverage-url]

> Create an [iterator][mdn-iterator-protocol] which computes the [half-value versed cosine][@stdlib/math/base/special/havercos] for each iterated value.

## Installation

```bash
npm install @stdlib/math-iter-special-havercos
```

Alternatively,

- To load the package in a website via a `script` tag without installation and bundlers, use the [ES Module][es-module] available on the [`esm`][esm-url] branch (see [README][esm-readme]).
- If you are using Deno, visit the [`deno`][deno-url] branch (see [README][deno-readme] for usage intructions).
- For use in Observable, or in browser/node environments, use the [Universal Module Definition (UMD)][umd] build available on the [`umd`][umd-url] branch (see [README][umd-readme]).

The [branches.md][branches-url] file summarizes the available branches and displays a diagram illustrating their relationships.

To view installation and usage instructions specific to each branch build, be sure to explicitly navigate to the respective README files on each branch, as linked to above.

## Usage

```javascript
var iterHavercos = require( '@stdlib/math-iter-special-havercos' );
```

#### iterHavercos( iterator )

Returns an [iterator][mdn-iterator-protocol] which iteratively computes the [half-value versed cosine][@stdlib/math/base/special/havercos].

```javascript
var array2iterator = require( '@stdlib/array-to-iterator' );

var it = iterHavercos( array2iterator( [ 1.57, 0.785 ] ) );
// returns

var v = it.next().value;
// returns ~0.5

v = it.next().value;
// returns ~0.854

// ...
```

The returned [iterator][mdn-iterator-protocol] protocol-compliant object has the following properties:

- **next**: function which returns an [iterator][mdn-iterator-protocol] protocol-compliant object containing the next iterated value (if one exists) assigned to a `value` property and a `done` property having a `boolean` value indicating whether the iterator is finished.
- **return**: function which closes an [iterator][mdn-iterator-protocol] and returns a single (optional) argument in an [iterator][mdn-iterator-protocol] protocol-compliant object.

## Notes

- If an iterated value is non-numeric (including `NaN`), the returned [iterator][mdn-iterator-protocol] returns `NaN`. If non-numeric iterated values are possible, you are advised to provide an [`iterator`][mdn-iterator-protocol] which type checks and handles non-numeric values accordingly.
- If an environment supports `Symbol.iterator` **and** a provided [iterator][mdn-iterator-protocol] is iterable, the returned [iterator][mdn-iterator-protocol] is iterable.

## Examples

```javascript
var uniform = require( '@stdlib/random-iter-uniform' );
var iterHavercos = require( '@stdlib/math-iter-special-havercos' );

// Create a seeded iterator for generating pseudorandom numbers:
var rand = uniform( 0.0, 6.28, {
'seed': 1234,
'iter': 10
});

// Create an iterator which consumes the pseudorandom number iterator:
var it = iterHavercos( rand );

// Perform manual iteration...
var v;
while ( true ) {
v = it.next();
if ( v.done ) {
break;
}
console.log( v.value );
}
```
