Return a list of non-reduced dimensions in an un-normalized multi-slice.
npm install @stdlib/slice-base-nonreduced-dimensionsWe 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. 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. 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. To join us in bringing numerical computing to the web, get started by checking us out on GitHub, and please consider financially supporting stdlib. We greatly appreciate your continued support!

> Return a list of non-reduced dimensions in an un-normalized [MultiSlice][@stdlib/slice/multi] object.
In a multi-axis indexing expression (e.g., '1,:,2,:,0:10:1'), a non-reduced dimension corresponds to a dimension which is retained in the slice result. Only integer indexing expressions (e.g., only the first and third dimensions in '1,:,2,:,0:10:1') result in dimension reduction; slices always retain respective dimensions, even if a slice is empty or only selects a single element.
``bash`
npm install @stdlib/slice-base-nonreduced-dimensions
`javascript`
var nonreducedDimensions = require( '@stdlib/slice-base-nonreduced-dimensions' );
#### nonreducedDimensions( slice )
Returns a list of non-reduced dimensions in an un-normalized [MultiSlice][@stdlib/slice/multi] object.
`javascript
var MultiSlice = require( '@stdlib/slice-multi' );
var Slice = require( '@stdlib/slice-ctor' );
var s = new MultiSlice( 1, null, 2, void 0, new Slice( 0, 10, 1 ) );
// returns
var indices = nonreducedDimensions( s );
// returns [ 1, 3, 4 ]
`
`javascript
var S = require( '@stdlib/slice-ctor' );
var MultiSlice = require( '@stdlib/slice-multi' );
var nonreducedDimensions = require( '@stdlib/slice-base-nonreduced-dimensions' );
var s = new MultiSlice( null, S(), -1 );
var out = nonreducedDimensions( s );
console.log( '%s => [%s]', s.toString(), out.join( ',' ) );
s = new MultiSlice( null );
out = nonreducedDimensions( s );
console.log( '%s => [%s]', s.toString(), out.join( ',' ) );
s = new MultiSlice( S( -1, null, -1 ), 3 );
out = nonreducedDimensions( s );
console.log( '%s => [%s]', s.toString(), out.join( ',' ) );
s = new MultiSlice( 2, S( -10, -2, 2 ), 3, null );
out = nonreducedDimensions( s );
console.log( '%s => [%s]', s.toString(), out.join( ',' ) );
s = new MultiSlice( S( 1, 20, 2 ), S( null, null, -1 ) );
out = nonreducedDimensions( s );
console.log( '%s => [%s]', s.toString(), out.join( ',' ) );
