Premise
JavaScript has long been considered one of the dominant languages for web technologies. Led by (Athan Reines)[https://github.com/kgryte] and (Dr. Philipp Burckhardt)[https://philipp-burckhardt.com] stdlib-js seeks to provide first-class scientific, numeric and statistical functionality to JavaScript.
Process
During my work on the ISLE project Dr. Burckhardt and I identified a gap in functionality in stdlib-js. We identified basic univariate and bivariate analysis methods to implement and use in ISLE. We built the functionality using output from R, Python’s scipy and MiniTab as references. The implementations were written as part of the stdlib-js library and adapted to ISLE’s data structures and conventions. We implemented the following methods:
- One-way ANOVA
Skills Used
- JavaScript Development
- Namespace Management
- Function Documentation
- Unit Testing
- Repository Management
- Elementary statistical functionality
