Given a function fn, return a memoized version of that function.
A memoized function is a function that will never be called twice with the same inputs. Instead it will return a cached value.
fn can be any function and there are no constraints on what type of values it accepts. Inputs are considered identical if they are === to each other.
Example 1:
Input:
getInputs = () => [[2,2],[2,2],[1,2]]
fn = function (a, b) { return a + b; }
Output: [{"val":4,"calls":1},{"val":4,"calls":1},{"val":3,"calls":2}]
Explanation:
const inputs = getInputs();
const memoized = memoize(fn);
for (const arr of inputs) {
memoized(...arr);
}
For the inputs of (2, 2): 2 + 2 = 4, and it required a call to fn().
For the inputs of (2, 2): 2 + 2 = 4, but those inputs were seen before so no call to fn() was required.
For the inputs of (1, 2): 1 + 2 = 3, and it required another call to fn() for a total of 2.
Example 2:
Input:
getInputs = () => [[{},{}],[{},{}],[{},{}]]
fn = function (a, b) { return ({...a, ...b}); }
Output: [{"val":{},"calls":1},{"val":{},"calls":2},{"val":{},"calls":3}]
Explanation:
Merging two empty objects will always result in an empty object. It may seem like there should only be 1 call to fn() because of cache-hits, however none of those objects are === to each other.
Example 3:
Input:
getInputs = () => { const o = {}; return [[o,o],[o,o],[o,o]]; }
fn = function (a, b) { return ({...a, ...b}); }
Output: [{"val":{},"calls":1},{"val":{},"calls":1},{"val":{},"calls":1}]
Explanation:
Merging two empty objects will always result in an empty object. The 2nd and 3rd third function calls result in a cache-hit. This is because every object passed in is identical.
Constraints:
1 <= inputs.length <= 1050 <= inputs.flat().length <= 105inputs[i][j] != NaN
type Fn = (...params: any) => any;
function memoize(fn: Fn): Fn {
const idxMap: Map<string, number> = new Map();
const cache: Map<string, any> = new Map();
const getIdx = (obj: any): number => {
if (!idxMap.has(obj)) {
idxMap.set(obj, idxMap.size);
}
return idxMap.get(obj)!;
};
return function (...params: any) {
const key = params.map(getIdx).join(',');
if (!cache.has(key)) {
cache.set(key, fn(...params));
}
