# int2slice
> Convert an integer to a [`Slice`][@stdlib/slice/ctor] object.
## Usage
```javascript
var int2slice = require( '@stdlib/slice/base/int2slice' );
```
#### int2slice( value, max, strict )
Converts an integer to a [`Slice`][@stdlib/slice/ctor] object, where `max` specifies the index upper bound.
```javascript
var s = int2slice( -4, 10, false );
// returns
var start = s.start;
// returns 6
var stop = s.stop;
// returns 7
var step = s.step;
// returns 1
```
When `strict` is `true`, the function returns an error object if an input value exceeds index bounds.
```javascript
var s = int2slice( 100, 10, true );
// returns { 'code': 'ERR_SLICE_OUT_OF_BOUNDS' }
```
A returned error object may have one of the following error codes:
- **ERR_SLICE_OUT_OF_BOUNDS**: a slice exceeds index bounds.
## Examples
```javascript
var int2slice = require( '@stdlib/slice/base/int2slice' );
var s = int2slice( -1, 7, false );
console.log( '%s', s.toString() );
s = int2slice( 3, 5, false );
console.log( '%s', s.toString() );
s = int2slice( -3, 5, false );
console.log( '%s', s.toString() );
s = int2slice( 10, 5, false );
console.log( '%s', s.toString() );
s = int2slice( -10, 5, false );
console.log( '%s', s.toString() );
```
