Polish.js - Making JavaScript Better - Zolmeister

Polish.js

JavaScript is pretty great, but it's not perfect. So I made it better by adding some extra functionality. (note. I add 2 global functions, range and zip because they are amazing, but the rest is either scoped under the Polish namespace, or added onto the default object properties.)

Before:

     > Math.min([1,2,3])
     NaN
     > Math.randInt(2,10)
     TypeError: Object #<Object> has no method 'randInt'
     > range(1,5)
     ReferenceError: range is not defined
     > Math.sum([1,2,3])
     TypeError: Object #<Object> has no method 'sum'
     > [1,2,3][-1]
     undefined

After:

      > Math.min([1,2,3])
      1
      > Math.randInt(2,10)
      6
      > range(1,5)
      [1, 2, 3, 4]
      > Math.sum([1,2,3])
      6
      > [1,2,3][-1]
      3
     > list = [1,2,3,4,5]
     > list.pop(1) // pops index
     2
     > list.remove(2) // removes element
      [1,3,4,5]
     > list.insert(2,5)
     [1,2,5,3,4,5]

Now, those are just the basics. What would be really great is if we could utilize python selectors:

    > "abcdef".g('-3:-1')
     'de'

And wouldn't it also be great if we had access to some of the python itertools methods?

     Polish.combinations([1,2,3],2)
     Polish.combinationsReplace("abc",2)
     Polish.permutations([1,2])

There are a few more goodies in there too, check out library on GitHub.
