kecutil.reduce(cb(cur, val), list, default)

Reduce is used to reduce a list to one value. This is commonly useful when finding the longest string for example

from kecutil import reduce


strings = ["ab", "acb", "abcdef", "abd"]
longestString = reduce(lambda x, y: x if len(x) > len(y) else y, strings, "")

print(longestString) # "abcdef"

kecutil.clearConsole()

Clears the console window

kecutil.clamp(value: int,length=2)

Clamps a float to have the same number of decimals as the length Returns a new float

from kecutil import clamp


number = 100.12345
clampedTwo = clamp(number)
clampedThree = clamp(number, 3)

print(clampedTwo) # 100.12
print(clampedThree) # 100.123
print(type(clampedTwo)) # <class 'float'>
print(type(clampedThree)) # <class 'float'>
