hasPrefix

Checks if iterable starts with a prefix. 🏃 📼 📦 🌔 📒

Alternatives: hasValue, hasPrefix, hasInfix, hasSuffix, hasSubsequence, hasPath.

iterable.hasPrefix(x, y, [fc], [fm]);
// x:  an iterable
// y:  prefix?
// fc: compare function (a, b)
// fm: map function (v, i, x)

const iterable = require("extra-iterable");

var x = [1, 2, 3, 4];
iterable.hasPrefix(x, [1, 2]);
// true

iterable.hasPrefix(x, [-1, -2]);
// false

iterable.hasPrefix(x, [-1, -2], (a, b) => Math.abs(a) - Math.abs(b));
// true

iterable.hasPrefix(x, [-1, -2], null, v => Math.abs(v));
// true
