Int32Array
Baseline Widely available
This feature is well established and works across many devices and browser versions. It’s been available across browsers since July 2015.
The Int32Array
typed array represents an array of 32-bit signed integers in the platform byte order. If control over byte order is needed, use DataView
instead. The contents are initialized to 0
unless initialization data is explicitly provided. Once established, you can reference elements in the array using the object's methods, or using standard array index syntax (that is, using bracket notation).
Int32Array
is a subclass of the hidden TypedArray
class.
Constructor
Int32Array()
-
Creates a new
Int32Array
object.
Static properties
Also inherits static properties from its parent TypedArray
.
Int32Array.BYTES_PER_ELEMENT
-
Returns a number value of the element size.
4
in the case ofInt32Array
.
Static methods
Inherits static methods from its parent TypedArray
.
Instance properties
Also inherits instance properties from its parent TypedArray
.
These properties are defined on Int32Array.prototype
and shared by all Int32Array
instances.
Int32Array.prototype.BYTES_PER_ELEMENT
-
Returns a number value of the element size.
4
in the case of aInt32Array
. Int32Array.prototype.constructor
-
The constructor function that created the instance object. For
Int32Array
instances, the initial value is theInt32Array
constructor.
Instance methods
Inherits instance methods from its parent TypedArray
.
Examples
Different ways to create an Int32Array
// From a length
const int32 = new Int32Array(2);
int32[0] = 42;
console.log(int32[0]); // 42
console.log(int32.length); // 2
console.log(int32.BYTES_PER_ELEMENT); // 4
// From an array
const x = new Int32Array([21, 31]);
console.log(x[1]); // 31
// From another TypedArray
const y = new Int32Array(x);
console.log(y[0]); // 21
// From an ArrayBuffer
const buffer = new ArrayBuffer(32);
const z = new Int32Array(buffer, 4, 4);
console.log(z.byteOffset); // 4
// From an iterable
const iterable = (function* () {
yield* [1, 2, 3];
})();
const int32FromIterable = new Int32Array(iterable);
console.log(int32FromIterable);
// Int32Array [1, 2, 3]
