Here are 2 prototype-functions I created.

**Ultimater** · 04-06-2005, 04:57 PM

There are alot of useful prototype functions through-out this thread. It's well-worth the time to browse through them.
Feel free to add your own prototype functions to this thread.
However, make sure that you've tested your functions before you post them.
Also, do not post anything but prototype functions in this thread.
Post your non-prototype-functions here: Function Library

This code defines the functions replaceAt and multipulCopies

HTML Code:

<SCRIPT TYPE="text/javascript">
String.prototype.replaceAt=function(){return this.substring(0,arguments[0])+arguments[1]+this.substring(arguments[0]+1,this.length)}
String.prototype.multipulCopies=function(){var temp="";for(var i=0;i<arguments[0];i++){temp+=this}return temp}
</SCRIPT>

Doesn't anybody like my functions!?

**BigMoosie** · 04-07-2005, 12:40 AM

I cant see many uses for them, and anyway, if I did one day need one I wouldnt think back to this thread I would immediately write the same solution that you have come up with, cos theyre only a couple of lines each

**Ultimater** · 04-07-2005, 01:21 AM

How dare you insult the functions of Ultimater!

I wouldn't belittle them so much. They are highly reuseable functions that are well-tested.
If you have a JS-header file that you include in all of your programs, you should also include these

I still acknowledge them just as much.

**robo_neojetsam** · 04-07-2005, 01:35 AM

That is a nice little bit of code that really could save people time, thanks for that.

You should submit it to the JavaScript Source ( http://javascript.internet.com )

**Ultimater** · 04-07-2005, 04:37 PM

Last time I submitted some code to them, and the only time -- being about 2 months ago,
they never publicized it yet... There was nothing wrong with or repulsive regarding the code either.
I was thinking about making a forums in my website special for tips & tricks and another for functions.
I also considered seperating each forum into two pieces -- one where I post and one where other people post.
That should make it easy for me to add tips & tricks ,etcetera to my forums.

PS: Thanks for acknowledging my functions.

**BigMoosie** · 04-07-2005, 04:51 PM

I think the reason JavaScript source did not accept your codes was because they are after cut and paste scripts that people who have no understanding of JavaScript can use. That is not the website for coding tools.

**Ultimater** · 04-07-2005, 05:08 PM

It's possible... Either way, I'm not going to submit any more code to them.
If anyone else feels they have the time to fill-out all of their forms, go ahead and submit it.

**HaganeNoKokoro** · 04-07-2005, 05:23 PM

I've always thought Javascript Source was pretty useless. I've tried submitting things to them in the past, and watched as my scripts were never posted while genuine crap was.

Example of the crap they let through: http://javascript.internet.com/calcu...of-primes.html

Dude, that's just pathetic.

**herodote92** · 04-07-2005, 05:35 PM

I think it would be interesting to have a full library of such string prototype functions at hand. Most of them are rather simple to write, but it's such boring to have to rewrite them every time you need them. Well, I guess such libraries exist alreay, one just has to find them (and it will likely be faster to rewrite the exact one you need than to find it).

Now the next step will be: writing the String.prototype.translateToFrench() function :-)

**Ultimater** · 04-07-2005, 05:36 PM

rotl... I'm glad that I'm not the only one being turnned down!

That makes me feel somewhat better.
That's just hilarious!

**Ultimater** · 04-07-2005, 05:43 PM

Well I don't know any french so I won't be the one creating that function...
I am, however, working on creating a big numbers function.
i.e. it will add or subtract two hugh numbers, both from any base, and return the result in the same base w/o using scientific notation.
It's not that hard... Mostly when creating such functions, I just simply need my coffee.
