A spec-compliant `Array.from` shim/polyfill/replacement that works as far down as ES3.

This package implements the [es-shim API](https://github.com/es-shims/api) interface. It works in an ES3-supported environment and complies with the proposed [spec](http://www.ecma-international.org/ecma-262/6.0/#sec-array.from).

The `Array.from()` method creates a new Array instance from an array-like or iterable object.

## Installation

```bash
npm install array.from
```

## Example

```js
var from = require('array.from');
var assert = require('assert');

assert.deepEqual(from('abc'), ['a', 'b', 'c']);
```

```js
var from = require('array.from');
var assert = require('assert');
/* when Array#from is not present */
delete Array.from;
var shimmedFrom = from.shim();
assert.equal(shimmedFrom, from.getPolyfill());
assert.deepEqual(Array.from('foo'), from('foo'));
```

```js
var from = require('array.from');
var assert = require('assert');
/* when Array#from is present */
var shimmedFrom = from.shim();
assert.equal(shimmedFrom, Array.from);
assert.deepEqual(Array.from('abc'), from('abc'));
```

## Tests
Simply clone the repo, `npm install`, and run `npm test`
