## Usage

```javascript
var nditerRowEntries = require( '@stdlib/ndarray/iter/row-entries' );
```

#### nditerRowEntries( x\[, options] )

Returns an iterator which returns `[index, row]` pairs for each row in a matrix (or stack of matrices).

```javascript
var ndarray2array = require( '@stdlib/ndarray/to-array' );
var array = require( '@stdlib/ndarray/array' );

var x = array( [ [ [ 1, 2 ], [ 3, 4 ] ], [ [ 5, 6 ], [ 7, 8 ] ] ] );
// returns <ndarray>

var iter = nditerRowEntries( x );

var v = iter.next().value;
// returns [...]

var idx = v[ 0 ];
// returns [ 0, 0, null ]

var row = ndarray2array( v[ 1 ] );
// returns [ 1, 2 ]

v = iter.next().value;
// returns [...]

idx = v[ 0 ];
// returns [ 0, 1, null ]

row = ndarray2array( v[ 1 ] );
// returns [ 3, 4 ]

// ...
```

The function accepts the following `options`:

-   **readonly**: boolean indicating whether returned [`ndarray`][@stdlib/ndarray/ctor] views should be read-only. In order to return writable [`ndarray`][@stdlib/ndarray/ctor] views, the input [`ndarray`][@stdlib/ndarray/ctor] must be writable. If the input [`ndarray`][@stdlib/ndarray/ctor] is read-only, setting this option to `false` raises an exception. Default: `true`.

By default, the iterator returns [`ndarray`][@stdlib/ndarray/ctor] views which are **read-only**. To return writable [views][@stdlib/ndarray/slice], set the `readonly` option to `false`.

```javascript
var ndarray2array = require( '@stdlib/ndarray/to-array' );
var array = require( '@stdlib/ndarray/array' );

var x = array( [ [ [ 1, 2 ], [ 3, 4 ] ], [ [ 5, 6 ], [ 7, 8 ] ] ] );
// returns <ndarray>

var iter = nditerRowEntries( x, {
    'readonly': false
});

var v = iter.next().value;
// returns [...]

var row = ndarray2array( v[ 1 ] );
// returns [ 1, 2 ]

v[ 1 ].set( 0, 10 );

row = ndarray2array( v[ 1 ] );
// returns [ 10, 2 ]
```

The returned [iterator][mdn-iterator-protocol] protocol-compliant object has the following properties:

-   **next**: function which returns an [iterator][mdn-iterator-protocol] protocol-compliant object containing the next iterated value (if one exists) assigned to a `value` property and a `done` property having a `boolean` value indicating whether the [iterator][mdn-iterator-protocol] is finished.
-   **return**: function which closes an [iterator][mdn-iterator-protocol] and returns a single (optional) argument in an [iterator][mdn-iterator-protocol] protocol-compliant object.

## Notes

-   Each returned index is a Cartesian index (i.e., an array of subscripts/dimension indices). A dimension index equal to `null` indicates that all values along the respective dimension are included in the returned [`ndarray`][@stdlib/ndarray/ctor].
-   If an environment supports `Symbol.iterator`, the returned iterator is iterable.
-   A returned iterator does **not** copy a provided [`ndarray`][@stdlib/ndarray/ctor]. To ensure iterable reproducibility, copy the input [`ndarray`][@stdlib/ndarray/ctor] **before** creating an iterator. Otherwise, any changes to the contents of input [`ndarray`][@stdlib/ndarray/ctor] will be reflected in the returned iterator.
-   In environments supporting `Symbol.iterator`, the function **explicitly** does **not** invoke an ndarray's `@@iterator` method, regardless of whether this method is defined.

## Examples

<!-- eslint no-undef: "error" -->

```javascript
var ndarray2array = require( '@stdlib/ndarray/to-array' );
var array = require( '@stdlib/ndarray/array' );
var zeroTo = require( '@stdlib/array/base/zero-to' );
var nditerRowEntries = require( '@stdlib/ndarray/iter/row-entries' );

// Define an input array:
var x = array( zeroTo( 27 ), {
    'shape': [ 3, 3, 3 ]
});

// Create an iterator for returning [index, row] pairs:
var it = nditerRowEntries( x );

// Perform manual iteration...
var v;
while ( true ) {
    v = it.next();
    if ( v.done ) {
        break;
    }
    console.log( v.value[ 0 ] );
    console.log( ndarray2array( v.value[ 1 ] ) );
}
```
