Top 20 JavaScript Autocomplete Libraries

JavaScript Autocomplete is known as a feature in which an application helps in predicting the rest of a word a user is typing.

It works by allowing users to click on the tab key to accept a suggestion or click to the down arrow key to accept one of several suggestions in graphical user interfaces.

This feature helps in saving us a lot of our time whenever we are typing our queries.

In this article, I will explain to you 21 best Javascript Autocomplete libraries that will assist you in query creation, reduce keystrokes and help avoid typographical errors.

1. Typeahead.js

We can say typeahead.js is a flexible JavaScript library for providing a powerful foundation for building strong typeahead. The developer of this library took inspiration from the autocomplete search functionality found on Twitter.

Features:

• This JavaScript library comprises two components: the suggestion engine and the UI view
• The suggestion engine’s duty is helping you compute suggestions for a given query
• The role of the UI view is to render suggestions and control DOM interactions

RobustStats.jl: A Collection Of Robust Statistical Tests in Julia

RobustStats

This package contains a variety of functions from the field robust statistical methods. Many are estimators of location or dispersion; others estimate the standard error or the confidence intervals for the location or dispresion estimators, generally computed by the bootstrap method.

Many functions in this package are based on the R package WRS (an R-Forge repository) by Rand Wilcox. Others were contributed by users as needed. References to the statistics literature can be found below.

This package requires Compat, Rmath, Dataframes, and Distributions. They can be installed automatically, or by invoking Pkg.add("packagename").

Estimators

Location estimators:

• tmean(x, tr=0.2) - Trimmed mean: mean of data with the lowest and highest fraction tr of values omitted.
• winmean(x, tr=0.2)- Winsorized mean: mean of data with the lowest and highest fraction tr of values squashed to the 20%ile or 80%ile value, respectively.
• tauloc(x) - Tau measure of location by Yohai and Zamar.
• onestep(x) - One-step M-estimator of location using Huber's ψ
• mom(x) - Modified one-step M-estimator of location (MOM)
• bisquareWM(x) - Mean with weights given by the bisquare rho function.
• huberWM(x) - Mean with weights given by Huber's rho function.
• trimean(x) - Tukey's trimean, the average of the median and the midhinge.

Dispersion estimators:

• winvar(x, tr=0.2) - Winsorized variance.
• wincov(x, y, tr=0.2) - Winsorized covariance.
• pbvar(x) - Percentage bend midvariance.
• bivar(x) - Biweight midvariance.
• tauvar(x) - Tau measure of scale by Yohai and Zamar.
• iqrn(x) - Normalized inter-quartile range (normalized to equal σ for Gaussians).
• shorthrange(x) - Length of the shortest closed interval containing at least half the data.
• scaleQ(x) - Normalized Rousseeuw & Croux Q statistic, from the 25%ile of all 2-point distances.
• scaleS(x) - Normalized Rousseeuw & Croux S statistic, from the median of the median of all 2-point distances.
• shorthrange!(x), scaleQ!(x), and scaleS!(x) are non-copying (that is, x-modifying) forms of the above.

Confidence interval or standard error estimates:

• trimse(x) - Standard error of the trimmed mean.
• trimci(x) - Confidence interval for the trimmed mean.
• msmedse(x) - Standard error of the median.
• binomci(s,n) - Binomial confidence interval (Pratt's method).
• acbinomci(s,n) - Binomial confidence interval (Agresti-Coull method).
• sint(x) - Confidence interval for the median (with optional p-value).
• momci(x) - Confidence interval of the modified one-step M-estimator of location (MOM).
• trimpb(x) - Confidence interval for trimmed mean.
• pcorb(x) - Confidence intervale for Pearson's correlation coefficient.
• yuend - Compare the trimmed means of two dependent random variables.
• bootstrapci(x, est=f) - Compute a confidence interval for estimator f(x) by bootstrap methods.
• bootstrapse(x, est=f) - Compute a standard error of estimator f(x) by bootstrap methods.

Utility functions:

• winval(x, tr=0.2) - Return a Winsorized copy of the data.
• idealf(x) - Ideal fourths, interpolated 1st and 3rd quartiles.
• outbox(x) - Outlier detection.
• hpsi(x) - Huber's ψ function.
• contam_randn - Contaminated normal distribution (generates random deviates).
• _weightedhighmedian(x) - Weighted median (breaks ties by rounding up). Used in scaleQ.

Recommendations:

For location, consider the bisquareWM with k=3.9σ, if you can make any reasonable guess as to the "Gaussian-like width" σ (see dispersion estimators for this). If not, trimean is a good second choice, though less efficient. Also, though the author personally has no experience with them, tauloc, onestep, and mom might be useful.

For dispersion, the scaleS is a good general choice, though scaleQ is very efficient for nearly Gaussian data. The MAD is the most robust though less efficient. If scaleS doesn't work, then shorthrange is a good second choice.

The first reference on scaleQ and scaleS (below) is a lengthy discussion of the tradeoffs among scaleQ, scaleS, shortest half, and median absolute deviation (MAD, see BaseStats.mad for Julia implementation). All four have the virtue of having the maximum possible breakdown point, 50%. This means that replacing up to 50% of the data with unbounded bad values leaves the statistic still bounded. The efficiency of Q is better than S and S is better than MAD (for Gaussian distributions), and the influence of a single bad point and the bias due to a fraction of bad points is only slightly larger on Q or S than on MAD. Unlike MAD, the other three do not implicitly assume a symmetric distribution.

To choose between Q and S, the authors note that Q has higher statistical efficiency, but S is typically twice as fast to compute and has lower gross-error sensitivity. An interesting advantage of Q over the others is that its influence function is continuous. For a rough idea about the efficiency, the large-N limit of the standardized variance of each quantity is 2.722 for MAD, 1.714 for S, and 1.216 for Q, relative to 1.000 for the standard deviation (given Gaussian data). The paper gives the ratios for Cauchy and exponential distributions, too; the efficiency advantages of Q are less for Cauchy than for the other distributions.

Top 5 JavaScript Libraries to Create an Organizational Chart

In this article, we’ll review five JavaScript libraries that allow you to create online organizational charts. To make this info useful for different categories of readers, we’ve gathered together libraries with different functionality and pricing policy. To help you decide whether one of them is worthy of your attention or not, we’ll take a look at the main features and check if the documentation is user-friendly.

DHTMLX Diagram Library

The DHTMLX diagram library allows creating easily configurable graphs for visualization of hierarchical data. Besides org charts, you can create almost any type of hierarchical diagrams. You can choose from organizational charts, flowcharts, block and network diagrams, decision trees, mind maps, UML Class diagrams, mixed diagrams, and any other types of diagrams. This variety of diagrams can be generated using a built-in set of shapes or with the help of custom shapes.

You can set up any diagram shape you need with text, icons, images, and any other custom content via templates in a few lines of code. All these parameters can be later changed from the UI via the sidebar options in the editor.

Top 9 JavaScript Charting Libraries

The edit mode gives an opportunity to make changes on-the-fly without messing with the source code. An interactive interface of the editor supports drag-and-drop and permits you to change each item of your diagram. You can drag diagram items with your mouse and set the size and position property of an item via the editor. The multiselection feature can help to speed up your work in the editor, as it enables you to manipulate several shapes.

The library has an exporting feature. You can export your diagram to a PDF, PNG, or JSON format. Zooming and scrolling options will be useful in case you work with diagrams containing a big number of items. There is also a search feature that helps you to quickly find the necessary shape and make your work with complex diagrams even more convenient by expanding and collapsing shapes when necessary. To show the structure of an organization compactly, you can use the vertical mode.

The documentation page will appeal both to beginners and experienced developers. A well-written beginner’s guide contains the source code with explanations. A bunch of guides will help with further configuration, so you’ll be able to create a diagram that better suits your needs. At the moment, there are three types of licenses available. The commercial license for the team of five or fewer developers costs $599, the enterprise license goes for $1299 per company, and the ultimate license has a price tag of $2899.

What is JavaScript - Stackfindover - Blog

Who invented JavaScript, how it works, as we have given information about Programming language in our previous article ( What is PHP ), but today we will talk about what is JavaScript, why JavaScript is used The Answers to all such questions and much other information about JavaScript, you are going to get here today. Hope this information will work for you.

Who invented JavaScript?

JavaScript language was invented by Brendan Eich in 1995. JavaScript is inspired by Java Programming Language. The first name of JavaScript was Mocha which was named by Marc Andreessen, Marc Andreessen is the founder of Netscape and in the same year Mocha was renamed LiveScript, and later in December 1995, it was renamed JavaScript which is still in trend.

What is JavaScript?

JavaScript is a client-side scripting language used with HTML (Hypertext Markup Language). JavaScript is an Interpreted / Oriented language called JS in programming language JavaScript code can be run on any normal web browser. To run the code of JavaScript, we have to enable JavaScript of Web Browser. But some web browsers already have JavaScript enabled.

Today almost all websites are using it as web technology, mind is that there is maximum scope in JavaScript in the coming time, so if you want to become a programmer, then you can be very beneficial to learn JavaScript.

JavaScript Hello World Program

In JavaScript, ‘document.write‘ is used to represent a string on a browser.

<script type="text/javascript">
	document.write("Hello World!");
</script>

How to comment JavaScript code?

• For single line comment in JavaScript we have to use // (double slashes)
• For multiple line comments we have to use / * – – * /

<script type="text/javascript">

//single line comment

/* document.write("Hello"); */

</script>
