    About stdlib...
  </summary>
  <p>We believe in a future in which the web is a preferred environment for numerical computation. To help realize this future, we've built stdlib. stdlib is a standard library, with an emphasis on numerical and scientific computation, written in JavaScript (and C) for execution in browsers and in Node.js.</p>
  <p>The library is fully decomposable, being architected in such a way that you can swap out and mix and match APIs and functionality to cater to your exact preferences and use cases.</p>
  <p>When you use stdlib, you can be absolutely certain that you are using the most thorough, rigorous, well-written, studied, documented, tested, measured, and high-quality code out there.</p>
  <p>To join us in bringing numerical computing to the web, get started by checking us out on <a href="https://github.com/stdlib-js/stdlib">GitHub</a>, and please consider <a href="https://opencollective.com/stdlib">financially supporting stdlib</a>. We greatly appreciate your continued support!</p>

<section class="installation">

## Installation

```bash
npm install @stdlib/simulate-iter-hann-pulse
```

</section>

<section class="usage">

## Usage

```javascript
var iterHannPulse = require( '@stdlib/simulate-iter-hann-pulse' );
```

#### iterHannPulse( \[options] )

Returns an iterator which generates a Hann pulse waveform.

```javascript
var it = iterHannPulse();
// returns <Object>

var v = it.next().value;
// returns <number>

v = it.next().value;
// returns <number>

v = it.next().value;
// returns <number>

// ...
```

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

-   **next**: function which returns an iterator 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 is finished.
-   **return**: function which closes an iterator and returns a single (optional) argument in an iterator protocol-compliant object.

The function supports the following `options`:

-   **period**: pulse period (i.e., the number of iterations before a waveform repeats). Default: `100`.
-   **duration**: pulse duration. Must be greater than `2`. Default: `options.period`.
-   **amplitude**: amplitude. Default: `1.0`.
-   **offset**: phase offset (in units of iterations; zero-based). A negative offset translates a waveform to the left. A positive offset translates a waveform to the right. Default: `0`.
-   **iter**: number of iterations. Default: `1e308`.

By default, the function returns an iterator which generates a waveform that repeats every `100` iterations. To specify an alternative period, set the `period` option.

```javascript
var opts = {
    'period': 10
};

var it = iterHannPulse( opts );
// returns <Object>

var v = it.next().value;
// returns <number>

v = it.next().value;
// returns <number>

// ...
```

By default, the function returns an iterator which generates a waveform that has a duty cycle of `100%` (i.e., the waveform duration equals the waveform period). To specify an alternative duty cycle, set the `duration` option. For example, to generate a waveform having a period of `10` iterations and a `50%` duty cycle,

```javascript
var opts = {
    'period': 10,
    'duration': 5 // 5/10 = 0.50 => 50%
};

var it = iterHannPulse( opts );
// returns <Object>

var v = it.next().value;
// returns 0.0

v = it.next().value;
// returns <number>

v = it.next().value;
// returns <number>

v = it.next().value;
// returns <number>

v = it.next().value;
// returns 0.0

v = it.next().value;
// returns 0.0

v = it.next().value;
// returns 0.0

v = it.next().value;
// returns 0.0

v = it.next().value;
// returns 0.0

v = it.next().value;
// returns 0.0

// ...
```

To adjust at what point the iterator begins in the waveform cycle, set the phase `offset` option. For example, to translate the waveform to the left,

```javascript
var opts = {
    'period': 10,
    'duration': 5,
    'offset': -7
};

var it = iterHannPulse( opts );
// returns <Object>

var v = it.next().value;
// returns 0.0

v = it.next().value;
// returns 0.0

v = it.next().value;
// returns 0.0

v = it.next().value;
// returns 0.0

v = it.next().value;
// returns <number>

v = it.next().value;
// returns <number>

// ...
```

To translate the waveform to the right,

```javascript
var opts = {
    'period': 10,
    'duration': 5,
    'offset': 2
};

var it = iterHannPulse( opts );
// returns <Object>

var v = it.next().value;
// returns 0.0

v = it.next().value;
// returns 0.0

v = it.next().value;
// returns 0.0

v = it.next().value;
// returns <number>

v = it.next().value;
// returns <number>

// ...
```

By default, the function returns an infinite iterator (i.e., an iterator which never ends). To limit the number of iterations, set the `iter` option.

```javascript
var opts = {
    'iter': 2
};
var it = iterHannPulse( opts );
// returns <Object>

var v = it.next().value;
// returns <number>

v = it.next().value;
// returns <number>

var bool = it.next().done;
// returns true
```
