Starting with this initial 2D array:
var initialArray = [[2,3],[6,7],[4,5],[1,2],[5,6],[2,3]];
I need to create this 3D array programmatically:
var fullArray = [
[[2,3],[6,7],[4,5],[1,2],[5,6],[2,3]],
[[3,4],[0,1],[5,6],[2,3],[6,7],[3,4]],
[[4,5],[1,2],[6,7],[3,4],[0,1],[4,5]],
[[5,6],[2,3],[0,1],[4,5],[1,2],[5,6]],
[[6,7],[3,4],[1,2],[5,6],[2,3],[6,7]],
[[0,1],[4,5],[2,3],[6,7],[3,4],[0,1]],
[[1,2],[5,6],[3,4],[0,1],[4,5],[1,2]],
[[2,3],[6,7],[4,5],[1,2],[5,6],[2,3]],
[[3,4],[0,1],[5,6],[2,3],[6,7],[3,4]],
[[4,5],[1,2],[6,7],[3,4],[0,1],[4,5]],
[[5,6],[2,3],[0,1],[4,5],[1,2],[5,6]]
];
See the pattern?
On each pair, the [0] position should increment to 6 (from any starting number <= 6) and then reset to 0 and then continue incrementing. Similarly, the [1] position should increment to 7 (from any starting number <= 7) and then reset to 1 and then continue incrementing.
In this example, there are 10 2D arrays contained in the fullArray. However, I need this number to be a variable. Something like this:
var numberOf2DArraysInFullArray = 12;
Furthermore, the initial array should be flexible so that initialArray values can be rearranged like this (but with the same iteration follow-through rules stated above):
var initialArray = [[6,7],[2,3],[5,6],[4,5],[1,2],[6,7]];
Any thoughts on how to programmatically create this structure?
Stumped on how to gracefully pull this off.
Feedback greatly appreciated!
Here's a solution, I've separated the methods, and I made it so if instead of pairs it's an N size array and you want the [2] to increase up to 8 and reset to 2, if that's not needed you can simplify the of the loop for(var j = 0; j < innerArray.length; j++)
var initialArray = [[2,3],[6,7],[4,5],[1,2],[5,6],[2,3]];
var create3DArray = function(array, size){
var newArray = [initialArray];
for(var i = 0; i < size; i++)
{
newArray.push(getNextArrayRow(newArray[i]));
}
return newArray;
}
var getNextArrayRow = function(array){
var nextRow = [];
for(var i = 0; i < array.length; i++)
{
var innerArray = array[i];
var nextElement = [];
for(var j = 0; j < innerArray.length; j++)
{
var value = (innerArray[j] + 1) % (7 + j);
value = value === 0 ? j : value;
nextElement.push(value);
}
nextRow.push(nextElement);
}
return nextRow;
}
console.log(create3DArray(initialArray,3));
Note, the results from running the snippet are a bit difficult to read...
var initialArray = [[2,3],[6,7],[4,5],[1,2],[5,6],[2,3]];
var numOfArrays = 10;
// get a range array [0, 1, 2, ...]
var range = [];
for (var i = 0; i < numOfArrays; i++) {
range.push(i);
}
var result = range.reduce(function(prev, index) {
if (index == 0) {
return prev;
}
prev.push(transformArray(prev[index - 1]));
return prev;
}, [initialArray])
console.log(result);
function transformArray(arr) {
return arr.map(transformSubArray)
}
function transformSubArray(arr) {
return arr.map(function(val) {
return val == 7 ? 0 : val + 1;
})
}
Here's a pretty simple functional-ish implementation
I want to know what is wrong with this function that takes array and summation it's elements
var arr = [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10];
var sum = 0;
var arraySum = function () {
for (var i = 0 ; i<= arr.length ; i++) {
sum += arr[i];
}
console.log(sum);
};
arraySum(arr);
You are trying to access an element outside of the array, this returns undefined.
for (var i = 0 ; i<= arr.length ; i++) {
// ^ the equal sign
replace it with
for (var i = 0 ; i< arr.length ; i++) {
var arr = [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10];
var sum = 0;
var arraySum = function () {
for (var i = 0; i< arr.length; i++) {
sum += arr[i];
}
};
arraySum(arr);
document.write(sum);
The problem is there with your for loop's condition. Use < when you are checking against the length,
for (var i = 0 ; i < arr.length ; i++) {
//------------------^ replaced the <= with <
Your loop will iterate additionally one time, at that time the value will be undefined.
So sum + undefined = NaN.
If you want to use <= for sure then subtract 1 from the length and use it.
for (var i = 0 ; i <= arr.length-1 ; i++) {
//------------------------------^ decrement the length by 1
Or you can do the entire process with Array.prototype.reduce
var arr = [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10];
var sum = arr.reduce((a, b) => { return a + b }, 0);
Also you can use Array.prototype.forEach function
var arr = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10];
var sum = 0;
arr.forEach(function(element) {
sum += element;
});
console.log(sum);
I am looking to create a function in javascript, which would allow me to pass a long array, together with one argument.
what I'm looking for is something like this:
var ar = [1,2,3,4];
var pairs = superAwesomeFunction(ar,2) //=> [[1,2],[1,3],[1,4],[2,3],[2,4],[3,4]];
var trebles = superAwesomeFunction(ar,3) //=> [[1,2,3],[1,2,4],[1,3,4],[2,3,4]
ideally, the function would have no limit on the folding argument.
I wrote a piece of code that looks like this, which is working fine, but it's not really useful as it isn't universal, and I would need a lot of such functions, which seems silly.
getAll2Folds: function (ar) {
var combinations = [],
numOdds = ar.length;
for (var i = 0; i < numOdds; i++) {
for (var j = i + 1; j < numOdds; j++) {
combinations.push([ar[i], ar[j]]);
}
}
return combinations;
},
getAll3Folds: function (ar) {
var combinations = [],
numOdds = ar.length;
for (var i = 0; i < numOdds; i++) {
for (var j = i + 1; j < numOdds; j++) {
for (var k = j + 1; k < numOdds; k++) {
combinations.push([ar[i], ar[j], ar[k]]);
}
}
}
return combinations;
};
},
... (not so great :|)
getAll8Folds: function (ar) {
var combinations = [],
numOdds = ar.length;
for (var i = 0; i < numOdds; i++) {
for (var j = i + 1; j < numOdds; j++) {
for (var k = j + 1; k < numOdds; k++) {
for (var l = k + 1; l < numOdds; l++) {
for (var m = l + 1; m < numOdds; m++) {
for (var n = m + 1; n < numOdds; n++) {
for (var o = n + 1; o < numOdds; o++) {
for (var p = o + 1; p < numOdds; p++) {
combinations.push([ar[i], ar[j], ar[k], ar[l], ar[m], ar[n], ar[o], ar[p]]);
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
return combinations;
}
I'm free to use underscore, jquery or whatever tool i want, but can't find an elegant solution, which would also be performant. ideas?
Thanks
Basically combine() takes an array with the values to combine and a size of the wanted combination results sets.
The inner function c() takes an array of previously made combinations and a start value as index of the original array for combination. The return is an array with all made combinations.
The first call is allways c([], 0), because of an empty result array and a start index of 0.
var arr = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7];
function combine(a, size) {
function c(part, start) {
var result = [], i, l, p;
for (i = start, l = arr.length; i < l; i++) {
// get a copy of part
p = part.slice(0);
// add the iterated element to p
p.push(a[i]);
// test if recursion can go on
if (p.length < size) {
// true: call c again and concat it to the result
result = result.concat(c(p, i + 1));
} else {
// false: push p to the result, stop recursion
result.push(p);
}
}
return result;
}
return c([], 0);
}
out(JSON.stringify(combine(arr, 2), null, 4), true);
out(JSON.stringify(combine(arr, 3), null, 4), true);
out(JSON.stringify(combine(arr, 4), null, 4), true);
out(JSON.stringify(combine(arr, 5), null, 4), true);
out(JSON.stringify(combine(arr, 6), null, 4), true);
// just for displaying the result
function out(s, pre) {
var descriptionNode = document.createElement('div');
descriptionNode.className = 'description';
if (pre) {
var preNode = document.createElement('pre');
preNode.innerHTML = s + '<br>';
descriptionNode.appendChild(preNode);
} else {
descriptionNode.innerHTML = s + '<br>';
}
document.getElementById('out').appendChild(descriptionNode);
}
<div id="out"></div>
Having some trouble with this script. It iterates through a two dimensional array and adds each corresponding index together. So basically arr[0][1] + arr[0][2] + arr[0][3] ... arr[1][1] + arr[1][2] + arr[1][3] ...etc.
This first one works fine. So my logic is ok. My problem here is that I can't create the indices dynamically. I don't think a push will work since I'm summing values here.
var cat_stats_week_radar = [[0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0]];
for (var i = 0; i < cat_stats_week.length; i++) {
for (var j = 0; j < cat_stats_week[0].length; j++) {
cat_stats_week_radar[0][j] += +(cat_stats_week[i][j]);
}
}
This one doesn't work, I don't get an error, just a bunch of NaN values.
var cat_stats_week_radar = [[]];
for (var i = 0; i < cat_stats_week.length; i++) {
for (var j = 0; j < cat_stats_week[0].length; j++) {
cat_stats_week_radar[0][j] += +(cat_stats_week[i][j]);
}
}
Here are the arrays I'm working with.
Array to add:
var cat_stats_week = [
[0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0],
[0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0],
[0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0],
[0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0],
[0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0],
[0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,1,0],
[0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0]
];
Resulting array:
var cat_stats_week_radar = [[0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 2, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 2, 0]];
You need to initialize it with the right number of zeroes:
var cat_stats_week_radar = [[]];
for (var i = 0; i < cat_stats_week[0].length; i++) {
cat_stats_week_radar[0].push(0);
}
And with Underscore.js:
_.map(_.zip.apply(null, cat_stats_week), function(a) {
return _.reduce(a, function(a, b) {
return a + b
})
});
I have several numbers in an array
var numArr = [1, 3, 5, 9];
I want to cycle through that array and multiply every unique 3 number combination as follows:
1 * 3 * 5 =
1 * 3 * 9 =
1 * 5 * 9 =
3 * 5 * 9 =
Then return an array of all the calculations
var ansArr = [15,27,45,135];
Anyone have an elegant solution? Thanks in advance.
A general-purpose algorithm for generating combinations is as follows:
function combinations(numArr, choose, callback) {
var n = numArr.length;
var c = [];
var inner = function(start, choose_) {
if (choose_ == 0) {
callback(c);
} else {
for (var i = start; i <= n - choose_; ++i) {
c.push(numArr[i]);
inner(i + 1, choose_ - 1);
c.pop();
}
}
}
inner(0, choose);
}
In your case, you might call it like so:
function product(arr) {
p = 1;
for (var i in arr) {
p *= arr[i];
}
return p;
}
var ansArr = [];
combinations(
[1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11], 3,
function output(arr) {
ansArr.push(product(arr));
});
document.write(ansArr);
...which, for the given input, yields this:
15,21,27,33,35,45,55,63,77,99,105,135,165,189,231,297,315,385,495,693
I think this should work:
var a = [1, 3, 5, 9];
var l = a.length;
var r = [];
for (var i = 0; i < l; ++i) {
for (var j = i + 1; j < l; ++j) {
for (var k = j + 1; k < l; ++k) {
r.push(a[i] * a[j] * a[k]);
}
}
}
Edit
Just for my own edification, I figured out a generic solution that uses loops instead of recursion. It's obvious downside is that it's longer thus slower to load or to read. On the other hand (at least on Firefox on my machine) it runs about twice as fast as the recursive version. However, I'd only recommend it if you're finding combinations for large sets, or finding combinations many times on the same page. Anyway, in case anybody's interested, here's what I came up with.
function combos(superset, size) {
var result = [];
if (superset.length < size) {return result;}
var done = false;
var current_combo, distance_back, new_last_index;
var indexes = [];
var indexes_last = size - 1;
var superset_last = superset.length - 1;
// initialize indexes to start with leftmost combo
for (var i = 0; i < size; ++i) {
indexes[i] = i;
}
while (!done) {
current_combo = [];
for (i = 0; i < size; ++i) {
current_combo.push(superset[indexes[i]]);
}
result.push(current_combo);
if (indexes[indexes_last] == superset_last) {
done = true;
for (i = indexes_last - 1; i > -1 ; --i) {
distance_back = indexes_last - i;
new_last_index = indexes[indexes_last - distance_back] + distance_back + 1;
if (new_last_index <= superset_last) {
indexes[indexes_last] = new_last_index;
done = false;
break;
}
}
if (!done) {
++indexes[indexes_last - distance_back];
--distance_back;
for (; distance_back; --distance_back) {
indexes[indexes_last - distance_back] = indexes[indexes_last - distance_back - 1] + 1;
}
}
}
else {++indexes[indexes_last]}
}
return result;
}
function products(sets) {
var result = [];
var len = sets.length;
var product;
for (var i = 0; i < len; ++i) {
product = 1;
inner_len = sets[i].length;
for (var j = 0; j < inner_len; ++j) {
product *= sets[i][j];
}
result.push(product);
}
return result;
}
console.log(products(combos([1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11], 3)));
A recursive function to do this when you need to select k numbers among n numbers. Have not tested. Find if there is any bug and rectify it :-)
var result = [];
foo(arr, 0, 1, k, n); // initial call
function foo(arr, s, mul, k, n) {
if (k == 1) {
result.push(mul);
return;
}
var i;
for (i=s; i<=n-k; i++) {
foo(arr, i+1, mul*arr[i], k-1, n-i-1);
}
}
This is a recursive function.
First parameter is array arr.
Second parameter is integer s. Each call calculates values for part of the array starting from index s. Recursively I am increasing s and so array for each call is recursively becoming smaller.
Third parameter is the value that is being calculated recursively and is being passed in the recursive call. When k becomes 1, it gets added in the result array.
k in the size of combination desired. It decreases recursively and when becomes 1, output appended in result array.
n is size of array arr. Actually n = arr.length
var create3Combi = function(array) {
var result = [];
array.map(function(item1, index1) {
array.map(function(item2, index2) {
for (var i = index2 + 1; i < array.length; i++) {
var item3 = array[i];
if (item1 === item2 || item1 === item3 || item2 === item3 || index2 < index1) {
continue;
}
result.push([item1, item2, item3]);
}
});
});
return result;
};
var multiplyCombi = function(array) {
var multiply = function(a, b){
return a * b;
};
var result = array.map(function(item, index) {
return item.reduce(multiply);
});
return result;
}
var numArr = [1, 3, 5, 9];
// create unique 3 number combination
var combi = create3Combi(numArr); //[[1,3,5],[1,3,9],[1,5,9],[3,5,9]]
// multiply every combination
var multiplyResult = multiplyCombi(combi); //[15,27,45,135];

Found this library. Tested to be working. Below is from the library document:
var Combinatorics = require('js-combinatorics');
var cmb = Combinatorics.combination(['a','b','c','d'], 2);
while(a = cmb.next()) console.log(a);
// ["a", "b"]
// ["a", "c"]
// ["a", "d"]
// ["b", "c"]
// ["b", "d"]
// ["c", "d"]
Using node, you can do this pretty easily using a library. First install bit-twiddle using npm:
npm install bit-twiddle
Then you can use it in your code like this:
//Assume n is the size of the set and k is the size of the combination
var nextCombination = require("bit-twiddle").nextCombination
for(var x=(1<<(k+1))-1; x<1<<n; x=nextCombination(x)) {
console.log(x.toString(2))
}
The variable x is a bit-vector where bit i is set if the ith element is contained in the combination.
