memoize

Returns a memoized version of the function that caches results.

Cache keys are derived via JSON.stringify; undefined arguments are correctly distinguished from null. Arguments that are not JSON-serializable (functions, symbols, class instances, circular references) produce a null-equivalent key and are not supported.

Available since v1.9.0

Import

import { memoize } from '@helpers4/function';

Parameters

Examples

Cache function results

The underlying function is only called once for the same arguments.

let calls = 0;
const expensive = memoize((n: number) => { calls++; return n * 2; });
expensive(5); // => 10 (computed)
expensive(5); // => 10 (cached)
