js match function code example

Example 1: js throttle function

function throttle (callback, limit) {
    var wait = false;                  // Initially, we're not waiting
    return function () {               // We return a throttled function
        if (!wait) {                   // If we're not waiting
            callback.call();           // Execute users function
            wait = true;               // Prevent future invocations
            setTimeout(function () {   // After a period of time
                wait = false;          // And allow future invocations
            }, limit);
        }
    }
}
// Usage Example:
// On scroll, allow function to run at most 1 time per 100ms
window.addEventListener("scroll", throttle(function(){
  /*stuff to be throttled*/
}, 100));

Example 2: javascript regex example match

//Declare Reg using slash
let reg = /abc/
//Declare using class, useful for buil a RegExp from a variable
reg = new RegExp('abc')

//Option you must know: i -> Not case sensitive, g -> match all the string
let str = 'Abc abc abc'
str.match(/abc/) //Array(1) ["abc"] match only the first and return
str.match(/abc/g) //Array(2) ["abc","abc"] match all
str.match(/abc/i) //Array(1) ["Abc"] not case sensitive
str.match(/abc/ig) //Array(3) ["Abc","abc","abc"]
//the equivalent with new RegExp is
str.match('abc', 'ig') //Array(3) ["Abc","abc","abc"]
