data type corresponding to an array constructor name.\n\n\n## Installation\n\n``` bash\n$ npm install dstructs-array-dtype\n```\n\nFor use in the browser, use [browserify](https://github.com/substack/node-browserify).\n\n\n## Usage\n\n``` javascript\nvar getType = require( 'dstructs-array-dtype' );\n```\n\n#### getType( name )\n\nReturns an `array` data type corresponding to an `array` constructor name.\n\n``` javascript\nvar dtype = getType( 'Float32Array' );\n// returns 'float32'\n\nvar arr = new Float32Array( 10 );\n\ndtype = getType( Object.prototype.toString.call( arr ).slice(8,-1) );\n// returns 'float32'\n\n// Note: not supported in IE\ndtype = getType( arr.constructor.name );\n// returns 'float32'\n```\n\nThe following `array` constructors are supported:\n\n| Constructor | Data Type |\n|:----------|:------------|\n| [`Int8Array`][Int8Array] | int8 | \n| [`Uint8Array`][Uint8Array] | uint8 | \n| [`Uint8ClampedArray`][Uint8ClampedArray] | uint8_clamped |\n| [`Int16Array`][Int16Array] | int16 |\n| [`Uint16Array`][Uint16Array] | uint16 |\n| [`Int32Array`][Int32Array] | int32 |\n| [`Uint32Array`][Uint32Array] | uint32 |\n| [`Float32Array`][Float32Array] | float32 |\n| [`Float64Array`][Float64Array] | float64 |\n| [`Array`][Array] | generic |\n\n\n## Examples\n\n``` javascript\nvar getType = require( 'dstructs-array-dtype' );\n\nconsole.log( getType( 'Int8Array' ) );\n// returns 'int8'\n\nconsole.log( getType( 'Uint8Array' ) );\n// returns 'uint8'\n\nconsole.log( getType( 'Uint8ClampedArray' ) );\n// returns 'uint8_clamped'\n\nconsole.log( getType( 'Int16Array' ) );\n// returns 'int16'\n\nconsole.log( getType( 'Uint16Array' ) );\n// returns 'uint16'\n\nconsole.log( getType( 'Int32Array' ) );\n// returns 'int32'\n\nconsole.log( getType( 'Uint32Array' ) );\n// returns 'uint32'\n\nconsole.log( getType( 'Float32Array' ) );\n// returns 'float32'\n\nconsole.log( getType( 'Float64Array' ) );\n// returns 'float64'\n\nconsole.log( getType( 'Array' ) );\n// returns 'generic'\n\nconsole.log( getType( 'Object' ) );\n// returns null\n\nconsole.log( getType( 'String' ) );\n// returns null\n\nconsole.log( getType( 'Boolean' ) );\n// returns null\n\nconsole.log( getType( 'Number' ) );\n// returns null\n\nconsole.log( getType( 'null' ) );\n// returns null\n\nconsole.log( getType( [] ) );\n// returns null\n\nconsole.log( getType( null ) );\n// returns null\n\nconsole.log( getType( {} ) );\n// returns null\n```\n\nTo run the example code from the top-level application directory,\n\n``` bash\n$ node ./examples/index.js\n```\n\n\n## Tests\n\n### Unit\n\nUnit tests use the [Mocha][mocha] test framework with [Chai][chai] assertions. To run the tests, execute the following command in the top-level application directory:\n\n``` bash\n$ make test\n```\n\nAll new feature development should have corresponding unit tests to validate correct functionality.\n\n\n### Test Coverage\n\nThis repository uses [Istanbul][istanbul] as its code coverage tool. To generate a test coverage report, execute the following command in the top-level application directory:\n\n``` bash\n$ make test-cov\n```\n\nIstanbul creates a `./reports/coverage` directory. To access an HTML version of the report,\n\n``` bash\n$ make view-cov\n```\n\n\n---\n## License\n\n[MIT license](http://opensource.org/licenses/MIT).\n\n\n## Copyright\n\nCopyright © 2015.
