### <a id="_chunkarray-size1"></a>`_.chunk(array, [size=1])`
<a href="#_chunkarray-size1">#</a> [&#x24C8;](https://github.com/lodash/lodash/blob/4.13.1/lodash.js#L6118 "View in source") [&#x24C9;][1] [&#x24C3;](https://www.npmjs.com/package/lodash.chunk "See the npm package")
Creates an array of elements split into groups the length of `size`.
If `array` can't be split evenly, the final chunk will be the remaining
elements.
#### Since
3.0.0
#### Arguments
1. `array` *(Array)*: The array to process.
2. `[size=1]` *(number)*: The length of each chunk
#### Returns
*(Array)*: Returns the new array of chunks.
#### Example
```js
_.chunk(['a', 'b', 'c', 'd'], 2);
// => [['a', 'b'], ['c', 'd']]
_.chunk(['a', 'b', 'c', 'd'], 3);
// => [['a', 'b', 'c'], ['d']]
```

Creates an array with all falsey values removed. The values `false`, `null`,
`0`, `""`, `undefined`, and `NaN` are falsey.
#### Since
0.1.0
#### Arguments
1. `array` *(Array)*: The array to compact.
#### Returns

Iterates over elements of `collection` and invokes `iteratee` for each element.
The iteratee is invoked with three arguments: *(value, index|key, collection)*.
Iteratee functions may exit iteration early by explicitly returning `false`.
<br>
<br>
**Note:** As with other "Collections" methods, objects with a "length"
property are iterated like arrays. To avoid this behavior use `_.forIn`
or `_.forOwn` for object iteration.

Creates a function that invokes the method at `object[key]` with `partials`
prepended to the arguments it receives.
<br>
<br>
This method differs from `_.bind` by allowing bound functions to reference
methods that may be redefined or don't yet exist. See
[Peter Michaux's article](http://peter.michaux.ca/articles/lazy-function-definition-pattern)
for more details.
<br>
<br>

Creates a function that accepts arguments of `func` and either invokes
`func` returning its result, if at least `arity` number of arguments have
been provided, or returns a function that accepts the remaining `func`
arguments, and so on. The arity of `func` may be specified if `func.length`
is not sufficient.
<br>
<br>
The `_.curry.placeholder` value, which defaults to `_` in monolithic builds,
may be used as a placeholder for provided arguments.

### <a id="_debouncefunc-wait0-options-optionsleadingfalse-optionsmaxwait-optionstrailingtrue"></a>`_.debounce(func, [wait=0], [options={}], [options.leading=false], [options.maxWait], [options.trailing=true])`
<a href="#_debouncefunc-wait0-options-optionsleadingfalse-optionsmaxwait-optionstrailingtrue">#</a> [&#x24C8;](https://github.com/lodash/lodash/blob/4.13.1/lodash.js#L9628 "View in source") [&#x24C9;][1] [&#x24C3;](https://www.npmjs.com/package/lodash.debounce "See the npm package")
Creates a debounced function that delays invoking `func` until after `wait`
milliseconds have elapsed since the last time the debounced function was
invoked. The debounced function comes with a `cancel` method to cancel
delayed `func` invocations and a `flush` method to immediately invoke them.
Provide an options object to indicate whether `func` should be invoked on
the leading and/or trailing edge of the `wait` timeout. The `func` is invoked
with the last arguments provided to the debounced function. Subsequent calls
to the debounced function return the result of the last `func` invocation.
<br>
<br>
**Note:** If `leading` and `trailing` options are `true`, `func` is invoked
on the trailing edge of the timeout only if the debounced function is
invoked more than once during the `wait` timeout.
<br>
<br>
See [David Corbacho's article](https://css-tricks.com/debouncing-throttling-explained-examples/)
for details over the differences between `_.debounce` and `_.throttle`.

5. `[options.maxWait]` *(number)*: The maximum time `func` is allowed to be delayed before it's invoked.
6. `[options.trailing=true]` *(boolean)*: Specify invoking on the trailing edge of the timeout.
#### Returns
*(Function)*: Returns the new debounced function.
#### Example
```js
// Avoid costly calculations while the window size is in flux.
jQuery(window).on('resize', _.debounce(calculateLayout, 150));
// Invoke `sendMail` when clicked, debouncing subsequent calls.
jQuery(element).on('click', _.debounce(sendMail, 300, {
'leading': true,
'trailing': false
}));
// Ensure `batchLog` is invoked once after 1 second of debounced calls.
var debounced = _.debounce(batchLog, 250, { 'maxWait': 1000 });
var source = new EventSource('/stream');
jQuery(source).on('message', debounced);
// Cancel the trailing debounced invocation.
jQuery(window).on('popstate', debounced.cancel);

**Note:** The cache is exposed as the `cache` property on the memoized
function. Its creation may be customized by replacing the `_.memoize.Cache`
constructor with one whose instances implement the
[`Map`](http://ecma-international.org/ecma-262/6.0/#sec-properties-of-the-map-prototype-object)
method interface of `delete`, `get`, `has`, and `set`.

values(object);
// => [1, 2]
values(other);
// => [3, 4]
object.a = 2;
values(object);
// => [1, 2]
// Modify the result cache.
values.cache.set(object, ['a', 'b']);

#### Example
```js
var say = _.spread(function(who, what) {
return who + ' says ' + what;
});
say(['fred', 'hello']);
// => 'fred says hello'
var numbers = Promise.all([
Promise.resolve(40),
Promise.resolve(36)

### <a id="_throttlefunc-wait0-options-optionsleadingtrue-optionstrailingtrue"></a>`_.throttle(func, [wait=0], [options={}], [options.leading=true], [options.trailing=true])`
<a href="#_throttlefunc-wait0-options-optionsleadingtrue-optionstrailingtrue">#</a> [&#x24C8;](https://github.com/lodash/lodash/blob/4.13.1/lodash.js#L10227 "View in source") [&#x24C9;][1] [&#x24C3;](https://www.npmjs.com/package/lodash.throttle "See the npm package")
Creates a throttled function that only invokes `func` at most once per
every `wait` milliseconds. The throttled function comes with a `cancel`
method to cancel delayed `func` invocations and a `flush` method to
immediately invoke them. Provide an options object to indicate whether
`func` should be invoked on the leading and/or trailing edge of the `wait`
timeout. The `func` is invoked with the last arguments provided to the
throttled function. Subsequent calls to the throttled function return the
result of the last `func` invocation.
<br>
<br>
**Note:** If `leading` and `trailing` options are `true`, `func` is
invoked on the trailing edge of the timeout only if the throttled function
is invoked more than once during the `wait` timeout.
<br>
<br>
See [David Corbacho's article](https://css-tricks.com/debouncing-throttling-explained-examples/)
for details over the differences between `_.throttle` and `_.debounce`.

4. `[options.leading=true]` *(boolean)*: Specify invoking on the leading edge of the timeout.
5. `[options.trailing=true]` *(boolean)*: Specify invoking on the trailing edge of the timeout.
#### Returns
*(Function)*: Returns the new throttled function.
#### Example
```js
// Avoid excessively updating the position while scrolling.
jQuery(window).on('scroll', _.throttle(updatePosition, 100));
// Invoke `renewToken` when the click event is fired, but not more than once every 5 minutes.
var throttled = _.throttle(renewToken, 300000, { 'trailing': false });
jQuery(element).on('click', throttled);
// Cancel the trailing throttled invocation.
jQuery(window).on('popstate', throttled.cancel);

Performs a partial deep comparison between `object` and `source` to
determine if `object` contains equivalent property values. This method is
equivalent to a `_.matches` function when `source` is partially applied.
<br>
<br>
**Note:** This method supports comparing the same values as `_.isEqual`.

This method is like `_.isMatch` except that it accepts `customizer` which
is invoked to compare values. If `customizer` returns `undefined`, comparisons
are handled by the method instead. The `customizer` is invoked with five
arguments: *(objValue, srcValue, index|key, object, source)*.
#### Since
4.0.0
#### Arguments
1. `object` *(Object)*: The object to inspect.
2. `source` *(Object)*: The object of property values to match.
3. `[customizer]` *(Function)*: The function to customize comparisons.
#### Returns
*(boolean)*: Returns `true` if `object` is a match, else `false`.
#### Example
```js
function isGreeting(value) {
return /^h(?:i|ello)$/.test(value);
}
function customizer(objValue, srcValue) {
if (isGreeting(objValue) && isGreeting(srcValue)) {
return true;
}
}

Checks if `value` is `NaN`.
<br>
<br>
**Note:** This method is based on
[`Number.isNaN`](https://mdn.io/Number/isNaN) and is not the same as
global [`isNaN`](https://mdn.io/isNaN) which returns `true` for
`undefined` and other non-number values.
#### Since
0.1.0
#### Arguments
1. `value` *(&#42;)*: The value to check.
#### Returns
*(boolean)*: Returns `true` if `value` is `NaN`, else `false`.

Checks if `value` is a pristine native function.
<br>
<br>
**Note:** This method can't reliably detect native functions in the
presence of the `core-js` package because `core-js` circumvents this kind
of detection. Despite multiple requests, the `core-js` maintainer has made
it clear: any attempt to fix the detection will be obstructed. As a result,
we're left with little choice but to throw an error. Unfortunately, this
also affects packages, like [babel-polyfill](https://www.npmjs.com/package/babel-polyfill),
which rely on `core-js`.
#### Since
3.0.0
#### Arguments
1. `value` *(&#42;)*: The value to check.
#### Returns
*(boolean)*: Returns `true` if `value` is a native function, else `false`.
#### Example
```js
_.isNative(Array.prototype.push);
// => true
_.isNative(_);
// => false
```

This method is like `_.assign` except that it recursively merges own and
inherited enumerable string keyed properties of source objects into the
destination object. Source properties that resolve to `undefined` are
skipped if a destination value exists. Array and plain object properties
are merged recursively. Other objects and value types are overridden by
assignment. Source objects are applied from left to right. Subsequent
sources overwrite property assignments of previous sources.

**Note:** This method mutates `object`.
#### Since
0.5.0
#### Arguments
1. `object` *(Object)*: The destination object.
2. `[sources]` *(...Object)*: The source objects.

### <a id="_value"></a>`_(value)`
<a href="#_value">#</a> [&#x24C8;](https://github.com/lodash/lodash/blob/4.13.1/lodash.js#L1464 "View in source") [&#x24C9;][1]
Creates a `lodash` object which wraps `value` to enable implicit method
chain sequences. Methods that operate on and return arrays, collections,
and functions can be chained together. Methods that retrieve a single value
or may return a primitive value will automatically end the chain sequence
and return the unwrapped value. Otherwise, the value must be unwrapped
with `_#value`.
<br>
<br>
Explicit chain sequences, which must be unwrapped with `_#value`, may be
enabled using `_.chain`.
<br>
<br>
The execution of chained methods is lazy, that is, it's deferred until
`_#value` is implicitly or explicitly called.
<br>
<br>
Lazy evaluation allows several methods to support shortcut fusion.
Shortcut fusion is an optimization to merge iteratee calls; this avoids
the creation of intermediate arrays and can greatly reduce the number of
iteratee executions. Sections of a chain sequence qualify for shortcut
fusion if the section is applied to an array of at least `200` elements
and any iteratees accept only one argument. The heuristic for whether a
section qualifies for shortcut fusion is subject to change.
<br>
<br>
Chaining is supported in custom builds as long as the `_#value` method is
directly or indirectly included in the build.
<br>
<br>
In addition to lodash methods, wrappers have `Array` and `String` methods.
<br>
<br>
The wrapper `Array` methods are:<br>
`concat`, `join`, `pop`, `push`, `shift`, `sort`, `splice`, and `unshift`
<br>
<br>
The wrapper `String` methods are:<br>
`replace` and `split`
<br>

Converts the characters "&", "<", ">", '"', "'", and "\`" in `string` to
their corresponding HTML entities.
<br>
<br>
**Note:** No other characters are escaped. To escape additional
characters use a third-party library like [_he_](https://mths.be/he).
<br>
<br>
Though the ">" character is escaped for symmetry, characters like
">" and "/" don't need escaping in HTML and have no special meaning
unless they're part of a tag or unquoted attribute value. See
[Mathias Bynens's article](https://mathiasbynens.be/notes/ambiguous-ampersands)
*(under "semi-related fun fact")* for more details.
<br>
<br>
Backticks are escaped because in IE < `9`, they can break out of
attribute values or HTML comments. See [#59](https://html5sec.org/#59),
[#102](https://html5sec.org/#102), [#108](https://html5sec.org/#108), and
[#133](https://html5sec.org/#133) of the
[HTML5 Security Cheatsheet](https://html5sec.org/) for more details.
<br>
<br>
When working with HTML you should always
[quote attribute values](http://wonko.com/post/html-escaping) to reduce
XSS vectors.
