We are required to write a JavaScript function that takes in an array of Numbers. Our function should iterate through the array and pick the greatest (largest) element from the array and return that element.ExampleThe code for this will be −const arr = [5, 3, 20, 15, 7]; const findGreatest = (arr = []) => { let greatest = -Infinity; if(!arr?.length){ return null; }; for(let i = 0; i < arr.length; i++){ const el = arr[i]; if(el < greatest){ continue; }; greatest = el; }; return greatest; }; console.log(findGreatest(arr));OutputAnd the output in the console will be −20
Suppose, we have a nested array of arrays like this −const arr = [ ["LEFT", "RIGHT", "RIGHT", "BOTTOM", "TOP"], ["RIGHT", "LEFT", "TOP"], ["TOP", "LEFT"] ];We are required to write a JavaScript function that takes in one such array. The function then should pick the smallest subarray (smallest in sense of a number of elements contained) and return it.ExampleThe code for this will be −const arr = [ ["LEFT", "RIGHT", "RIGHT", "BOTTOM", "TOP"], ["RIGHT", "LEFT", "TOP"], ["TOP", "LEFT"] ]; const findShortest = (arr = []) => { const res = arr.reduce((acc, val, ind) => ...

Suppose, we have an array of objects like this −const arr = [ { Phase: "Phase 1", Step: "Step 1", Task: "Task 1", Value: "5" }, { Phase: "Phase 1", Step: "Step 1", Task: "Task 2", Value: "10" }, { Phase: "Phase 1", Step: "Step 2", Task: "Task 1", Value: "15" }, { Phase: "Phase 1", Step: "Step 2", Task: "Task 2", Value: "20" }, { Phase: "Phase 2", Step: "Step 1", Task: "Task 1", Value: "25" }, { Phase: "Phase 2", Step: "Step 1", Task: "Task 2", Value: "30" }, { Phase: ...

We have got an array of objects. If one property of the object is the same as in another object, we consider it to be a duplicate entry.We want to group objects by this property and store information about how many times the "duplicate" occurred. X A B O Y X Z I Y X Z U X A B L Y X Z KWe want to group by the first value.Another two properties are the same in each duplicate too, but comparing the first value will be enough.We need to display to the user a ...

We have a set of vertical regions defined by y1 and y2 coordinates, where y1 is the starting point and y2 is the ending point of each region.The origin of our coordinates system is the top-left corner, so y2 is always greater than y1.This is an example −const regions = [ [10, 100], [50, 120], [60, 180], [140, 220] ];We are required to write a JavaScript function that takes in one such region array as the first argument and a number as the second argument.We would like to find out all disjointed intersections greater than a ...

Suppose we have two arrays describing some cashflow like these −const months = ["jan", "feb", "mar", "apr"]; const cashflows = [ {'month':'jan', 'value':10}, {'month':'mar', 'value':20} ];We are required to write a JavaScript function that takes in two such arrays. Our function should then construct a combined array of objects that contains an object for each month and the value of cash flow for that month.Therefore, for the above array, the output should look like −const output = [ {'month':'jan', 'value':10}, {'month':'feb', 'value':''}, {'month':'mar', 'value':20}, {'month':'apr', 'value':''} ];ExampleThe code for this will be −const months ...

Suppose, we have two JavaScript objects defined like this −const a = { a: 1, af: function() { console.log(this.a) }, }; const b = { b: 2, bf: function() { console.log(this.b) }, };We are required to write a JavaScript function that takes in two such objects. Create another object which will get the properties of a and b, like this −const output = { a: 1, af: function() { console.log(this.a) }, b: 2, bf: function() { console.log(this.b) }, }Note that a and b need to stay the same.ExampleThe code for this will ...

Let’s say, we have an array of numbers and we added elements to it. You need to devise a simple way to remove a specific element from an array.The following is what we are looking for −array.remove(number);We have to use core JavaScript. Frameworks are not allowed.ExampleThe code for this will be −const arr = [2, 5, 9, 1, 5, 8, 5]; const removeInstances = function(el){ const { length } = this; for(let i = 0; i < this.length; ){ if(el !== this[i]){ i++; continue; ...

We are required to depict the ways in which we can access the current timestamp in JavaScript in −---seconds---millisecondsJavaScript works with the number of milliseconds since the epoch whereas most other languages work with the seconds.This will give you a Unix timestamp (in seconds) −const date = new Date(); const unix = Math.round(+date / 1000); console.log(unix);This will give you the milliseconds since the epoch (not Unix timestamp) −const date = new Date(); const milliseconds = date.getTime(); console.log(milliseconds);
We are required to write a JavaScript function that takes in an array of Numbers as the first argument and a number, say n, as the second argument.Our function should calculate and return the greatest possible product of n numbers from the array.ExampleThe code for this will be −const getHighestProduct = (arr, num) => { let prod = 1; const sorter = (a, b) => a - b; arr.sort(sorter); if (num > arr.length || num & 2 && arr[arr.length - 1] < 0) { return; }; if (num % 2) { ...
