Find the greatest product of three numbers in JavaScript
We are required to write a JavaScript function that takes in an array of Numbers as the only. The function should prepare an array of three such elements from the array that yields the greatest products amongst any three elements of the array. The function should finally return the product of those three elements.
For example −
If the input array is −
const arr = [-10, 7, 29, 30, 5, -10, -70];
Then the output should be −
const output = 21000
because the three numbers are 30, -10, -70
We can see that the array can or will probably contain negative elements. Therefore, in such a case the maximum product will be the greater of these two −
min1 * min2 * max1 max1 * max2 * max3
Therefore, we will solve it just like this
Example
Following is the code −
const arr = [-10, 7, 29, 30, 5, -10, -70]; const threeProduct = (arr = []) => { const sorter = (a, b) => a -b; arr.sort(sorter); let pro1 = 1, pro2 = 1; let len = arr.length - 1; for (let i = len; i > len - 3; i--) { pro1 = pro1 * arr[i]; }; pro2 = arr[0] * arr[1] * arr[len]; return Math.max(pro1, pro2); } console.log(threeProduct(arr));
Output
Following is the output on console −
21000
