ASCII CodeASCII is a 7-bit character code where every single bit represents a unique character.Every English alphabet has a unique decimal ascii code.We are required to write a function that takes in two strings and calculates their ascii scores (i.e., the sum of ascii decimal of each character of string) and returns the difference.ExampleLet's write the code for this −const str1 = 'This is the first string.'; const str2 = 'This here is the second string.'; const calculateScore = (str = '') => {    return str.split("").reduce((acc, val) => {       return acc + val.charCodeAt(0);    }, 0); ...

We are required to compare the time taken respectively by the ES6 functions forEach() and reduce() for summing a huge array of numbers.As we can't have a huge array of numbers here, we will simulate the magnitude of array by performing the summing operation for large number of times (iterations)ExampleLet's write the code for this −const arr = [1, 4, 4, 54, 56, 54, 2, 23, 6, 54, 65, 65]; const reduceSum = arr => arr.reduce((acc, val) => acc + val); const forEachSum = arr => {    let sum = 0;    arr.forEach(el => sum += el);    return ...

We are required to write a JavaScript function that takes in two numbers, say, a and b and returns the total number of prime numbers between a and b (including a and b, if they are prime).For example −If a = 2, and b = 21, the prime numbers between them are 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19And their count is 8. Our function should return 8.Let’s write the code for this function −ExampleFollowing is the code −const isPrime = num => {    let count = 2;    while(count < (num / 2)+1){       if(num ...

In this article, we will learn to calculate the union of two objects in JavaScript. The union of two objects results in a new object that contains all the properties of both objects. What is the Union of Two Objects? The union of two objects is the process of combining the properties of both objects into a single object. For example Input − const obj1 = { name: " ", email: " " }; const obj2 = { name: ['x'], email: ['y']}; Output − const output = { name: {" ", [x]}, email: {" ", [y]} }; Different Approaches ...

We are required to write a JavaScript function that takes in two strings and concatenates the second string to the first string.If the last character of the first string and the first character of the second string are the same then we have to omit one of those characters. Let’s say the following are our strings in JavaScript −const str1 = 'Food'; const str2 = 'dog';Let’s write the code for this function −const str1 = 'Food'; const str2 = 'dog'; const concatenateStrings = (str1, str2) => {    const { length: l1 } = str1;    const { length: l2 ...

Using the Date class of JavaScript whose object new Date() returns a JavaScript date for the current day, we have to find the date of the next two days.This is a fairly simple problem and we can achieve this with a few lines of code. At first, get today’s date −// getting today's date const today = new Date();Let’s write the code for this function −// getting today's date const today = new Date(); // initializing tomorrow with today's date const tomorrow = new Date(today); // increasing a day in tomorrow and setting it to tomorrow tomorrow.setDate(tomorrow.getDate() + 1); const ...
