ILists is a pair of key iterable list and value iterable list, with unique keys.
📦 Node.js, 🌐 Web, 📜 Files, 📰 Docs, 📘 Wiki.

As mentioned above, ILists is a data structure that consists of a pair of iterable lists, one for keys and one for values. The keys are unique, meaning there are no duplicate entries. ILists is an iterable version of Lists. Use it when you don't have the keys and values as Arrays.

This package includes functions that allow you to query about, generate, compare, and manipulate the data within the ILists. You can find out its size, add and remove entries, obtain its properties, get parts or subsets of the data, find specific entries within it, perform functional operations, combine ILists or its sub-entries, or perform set operations upon it. Except fromEntries(), all functions take ILists as their first parameter.

This package is available in Node.js and Web formats. To use it on the web, simply use the extra_ilists global variable after loading with a <script> tag from the jsDelivr CDN.

Stability: Experimental.
