• convertFtoK(value): Converts a temperature value from Fahrenheit to Kelvin.
• convertKtoF(value): Converts a temperature value from Kelvin to Fahrenheit.

Length Conversion Methods

Length Conversions

• convertMtoFT(value): Converts a length value from meters to feet.
• convertFTtoM(value): Converts a length value from feet to meters.
• convertINtoCM(value): Converts a length value from inches to centimeters.
• convertCMtoIN(value): Converts a length value from centimeters to inches.

Physics Calculation Methods

Physics Calculations

SwoopTest Class

The SwoopTest class provides a simple testing framework for writing and running tests.

Constructor

Initializes the SwoopTest object with an empty array of tests.

Adding Tests

Adds a new test to the array of tests. The test is defined by a name and a function that contains the test logic.

Running Tests

Runs all the tests in the array of tests. If a test passes, it logs a success message to the console. If a test fails, it logs an error message to the console.

Assertion Methods

The following assertion methods can be used within tests to verify expected results:

• assertEqual(a, b): Verifies that two values are equal. If not, throws an error.
• assertNotEqual(a, b, message): Verifies that two values are not equal. If they are, throws an error.
• assertGreaterThan(a, b, message): Verifies that the first value is greater than the second. If not, throws an error.
• assertLessThan(a, b, message): Verifies that the first value is less than the second. If not, throws an error.

SwoopCache Class

The SwoopCache class provides a simple caching mechanism with a time-to-live (TTL) feature.

Constructor

Initializes the SwoopCache object with an empty cache object and a default TTL of 60 seconds (60000 milliseconds).

Setting Cache Data

Sets a new cache entry with the given key and value. The entry will expire after the TTL period.

Getting Cached Data

Retrieves the cached value for the given key. If the entry has expired or does not exist, returns null.

Deleting Cached Data

Deletes the cached entry for the given key.

Clearing Cached Data

Clears all cached entries.

Examples

const arr1 = [1, 2, 3];
  const arr2 = [3, 4, 5];
  const union = SWOOP.ARR.union(arr1, arr2);
  // [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]

const arr = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5];
  const sum = SWOOP.ARR.sum(arr);
  // 15

const arr = [1, 3, 5, 7, 9];
  const median = SWOOP.ARR.median(arr);
  // 5
  

  
    SWOOP.FUNC.throttle(myFunc(),2000)
    /*allows the function to be called once in 2 seconds,i.e,2000 milliseconds*/
  
    

  
    const physix = new Swoophysix();
    physix.convertMtoCM(20)
    //converts 20 metres to centimetres
  
  

  
    const cache = new SwoopCache(TTL=60000)//the cached data resets after 1 minute
    cache.setCacheData("myKey","myValue") //sets a data in the cache
    //obtaining cached data 
    cache.getCachedData("myKey")
    //you can delete cache data like this:
    cache.deleteCachedData("myKey")
