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!

# reduceRight

> Apply a function against an accumulator and each element in an array while iterating from right to left and return the accumulated result.

## Installation

```bash
npm install @stdlib/utils-reduce-right
```

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 reduceRight = require( '@stdlib/utils-reduce-right' );
```

#### reduceRight( arr, initial, reducer\[, thisArg ] )

Applies a function against an accumulator and each element in an array while iterating from right to left and returns the accumulated result.

```javascript
function sum( accumulator, value ) {
return accumulator + value;
}

var arr = [ 1, 2, 3, 4 ];

var out = reduceRight( arr, 0, sum );
// returns 10
```

The function accepts both array-like objects and [`ndarray`][@stdlib/ndarray/ctor]-like objects.

```javascript
var array = require( '@stdlib/ndarray-array' );

function sum( accumulator, value ) {
return accumulator + value;
}

var opts = {
'dtype': 'generic'
};
var arr = array( [ [ 1, 2, 3 ], [ 4, 5, 6 ] ], opts );

var out = reduceRight( arr, 0, sum );
// returns 21
```

The applied function is provided the following arguments:

- **accumulator**: accumulated value.
- **value**: array element.
- **index**: element index.
- **arr**: input array.

To set the `this` context when invoking the input function, provide a `thisArg`.

```javascript
function sum( accumulator, value ) {
this.count += 1;
return accumulator + value;
}

var arr = [ 1, 2, 3, 4 ];

var ctx = {
'count': 0
};

var out = reduceRight( arr, 0, sum, ctx );
// returns 10

var mean = out / ctx.count;
// returns 2.5
```

## Notes

- For input arrays, the function differs from [`Array.prototype.reduceRight`][mdn-array-reduceright] in the following ways:

- The function **requires** an `initial` value for the `accumulator`. The `initial` value is used during the first invocation of the `reducer` function.
- The function does **not** skip the last array element.
- The function does **not** skip `undefined` elements.
- The function does **not** support dynamic array-like objects (i.e., array-like objects whose `length` changes during execution).

- The function supports array-like objects exposing getters and setters for array element access (e.g., [`Complex64Array`][@stdlib/array/complex64], [`Complex128Array`][@stdlib/array/complex128], etc).

```javascript
var Complex64Array = require( '@stdlib/array-complex64' );
var Complex64 = require( '@stdlib/complex-float32-ctor' );
var realf = require( '@stdlib/complex-float32-real' );
var imagf = require( '@stdlib/complex-float32-imag' );

function sum( acc, z ) {
var re1 = realf( acc );
var im1 = imagf( acc );
var re2 = realf( z );
var im2 = imagf( z );
return new Complex64( re1+re2, im1+im2 );
}

var x = new Complex64Array( [ 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, 5.0, 6.0, 7.0, 8.0 ] );

var v = reduceRight( x, new Complex64( 0.0, 0.0 ), sum );
// returns

var re = realf( v );
// returns 16.0

var im = imagf( v );
// returns 20.0
```

- For [`ndarray`][@stdlib/ndarray/ctor]-like objects, the function performs a reduction over the entire input [`ndarray`][@stdlib/ndarray/ctor] (i.e., higher-order [`ndarray`][@stdlib/ndarray/ctor] dimensions are flattened to a single-dimension).

- When applying a function to [`ndarray`][@stdlib/ndarray/ctor]-like objects, performance will be best for [`ndarray`][@stdlib/ndarray/ctor]-like objects which are single-segment contiguous.

## Examples

```javascript
var filledarrayBy = require( '@stdlib/array-filled-by' );
var discreteUniform = require( '@stdlib/random-base-discrete-uniform' ).factory;
var naryFunction = require( '@stdlib/utils-nary-function' );
var add = require( '@stdlib/math-base-ops-add' );
var array = require( '@stdlib/ndarray-array' );
var reduceRight = require( '@stdlib/utils-reduce-right' );

function fill( i ) {
var rand = discreteUniform( -10*(i+1), 10*(i+1) );
return filledarrayBy( 10, 'generic', rand );
}

// Create a two-dimensional ndarray (i.e., a matrix):
var x = array( filledarrayBy( 10, 'generic', fill ), {
'dtype': 'generic',
'flatten': true
});

// Create an explicit binary function:
var f = naryFunction( add, 2 );

// Compute the sum:
var out = reduceRight( x, 0, f );

console.log( 'x:' );
console.log( x.data );

console.log( 'sum: %d', out );
```
