 | |
| ## Usage
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```js
 | |
| const allocUnsafe = require('buffer-alloc-unsafe')
 | |
| 
 | |
| console.log(allocUnsafe(10))
 | |
| //=> <Buffer 78 0c 80 03 01 00 00 00 05 00>
 | |
| 
 | |
| console.log(allocUnsafe(10))
 | |
| //=> <Buffer 58 ed bf 5f ff 7f 00 00 01 00>
 | |
| 
 | |
| console.log(allocUnsafe(10))
 | |
| //=> <Buffer 50 0c 80 03 01 00 00 00 0a 00>

| ## API
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### allocUnsafe(size)
 | |
| 
 | |
| - `size` <Integer> The desired length of the new `Buffer`
 | |
| 
 | |
| Allocates a new *non-zero-filled* `Buffer` of `size` bytes. The `size` must be
 | |
| less than or equal to the value of `buffer.kMaxLength` and greater than or equal
 | |
| to zero. Otherwise, a `RangeError` is thrown.
