The Socket Research Team breaks down a malicious wrapper package that uses obfuscation to harvest credentials and exfiltrate sensitive data.
ml-array-mean
Advanced tools
The ml-array-mean npm package is a simple utility for calculating the mean (average) of an array of numbers. It is part of the 'ml' (machine learning) suite of tools, which provides various utilities for data manipulation and analysis.
Calculate Mean
This feature allows you to calculate the mean of an array of numbers. The code sample demonstrates how to use the ml-array-mean package to find the average of the numbers in the array [1, 2, 3, 4, 5], which is 3.
const mean = require('ml-array-mean');
const data = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5];
const result = mean(data);
console.log(result); // Output: 3
The simple-statistics package provides a wide range of statistical functions, including mean, median, mode, standard deviation, and more. It is more comprehensive compared to ml-array-mean, which focuses solely on calculating the mean.
The mathjs package is a comprehensive math library for JavaScript and Node.js. It includes functions for arithmetic, algebra, statistics, and more. It offers a mean function similar to ml-array-mean but also provides a vast array of other mathematical utilities.
Lodash is a popular utility library that provides various functions for common programming tasks, including array manipulation and statistical calculations. It includes a mean function, but its primary focus is on providing a wide range of utility functions for JavaScript development.
Get the average value in an array.
$ npm install --save ml-array-mean
import mean from 'ml-array-mean';
const result = mean([1, 5, 3, 2, 4]);
// 3
