Difference between sum of square and square of sum in JavaScript
We are required to write a JavaScript function that takes a number, say n, as the one and the only input.
The function should −
Calculate the sum of squares of the first n natural numbers.
Calculate the square of sums of first n natural numbers.
Return the absolute difference between the both figures obtained.
For example: If n = 5;
Then,
sum of squares = 1 + 4 + 9 + 16 + 25 = 55 square of sums = 15 * 15 = 225
Hence, output = 225 − 55 = 170
Example
The code for this will be −
const squareDifference = (num = 1) => { let x = 0; let y = 0; let i = 0; let j = 0; // function to compute the sum of squares (function sumOfSquares() { while (i <= num) { x += Math.pow(i, 2); i++; } return x; }()); // function to compute the square of sums (function squareOfSums() { while (j <= num) { y += j; j++; } y = Math.pow(y, 2); return y; }()); // returning the absolute difference return Math.abs(y − x); }; console.log(squareDifference(1)); console.log(squareDifference(5)); console.log(squareDifference(10)); console.log(squareDifference(15));
Output
And the output in the console will be −
0 170 2640 13160
