<p>Объект <strong><code>Uint8Array</code></strong> представляет типизированный массив 8-разрядных целых беззнаковых значений. Содержимое инициализируется значением 0. Создав экземпляр <strong><code>Uint8Array</code></strong>, возможно получить доступ к элементам массива, используя методы объекта или стандартный синтаксис доступа к элементу массива по его индексу (с помощью скобочной нотации).</p>

<h2 id="Examples">Examples</h2>

<p>Different ways to create a <code>Uint8Array</code>:</p>

<pre class="brush: js">// From a length
var uint8 = new Uint8Array(2);
uint8[0] = 42;
console.log(uint8[0]); // 42
console.log(uint8.length); // 2
console.log(uint8.BYTES_PER_ELEMENT); // 1

// From an array
var arr = new Uint8Array([21,31]);
console.log(arr[1]); // 31

// From another TypedArray
var x = new Uint8Array([21, 31]);
var y = new Uint8Array(x);
console.log(y[0]); // 21

// From an ArrayBuffer
var buffer = new ArrayBuffer(8);
var z = new Uint8Array(buffer, 1, 4);

// From an iterable
var iterable = function*(){ yield* [1,2,3]; }();
var uint8 = new Uint8Array(iterable);
// Uint8Array[1, 2, 3]

<p>{{Compat("javascript.builtins.Uint8Array")}}</p>

<h2 id="Compatibility_notes">Compatibility notes</h2>

<p>Starting with ECMAScript 2015, <code>Uint8Array</code> constructors require to be constructed with a {{jsxref("Operators/new", "new")}} operator. Calling a <code>Uint8Array</code> constructor as a function without <code>new</code>, will throw a {{jsxref("TypeError")}} from now on.</p>

<pre class="brush: js example-bad">var dv = Uint8Array([1, 2, 3]);
// TypeError: calling a builtin Uint8Array constructor
// without new is forbidden</pre>

<pre class="brush: js example-good">var dv = new Uint8Array([1, 2, 3]);</pre>
