How to keep Duplicates of an Array
(4 answers)
Closed 5 years ago.
I have to get a list of values that exist more than once in an array.
This is current code , but as you can see it's too complicated.
var arr = [1, 2, 3, 4, 2, 3];
var flag = {}
var exist2arr = [];
for(var i = 0; i < arr.length; i++){
for(var j = 0 ; j < arr.length; j ++){
if(i !=j && arr[i] == arr[j]){
if(!flag[arr[i]])
exist2arr.push(arr[i]);
flag[arr[i]] = 1;
}
}
}
console.log(exist2arr);
Is there any other way (simple code using javascript built-in function) to achieve this? Any kind of help appreciate.
You could filter the array based on values who's first and current indexes are not equal then run that array through a Set
const arr = [1, 2, 3, 4, 2, 3, 2, 3, 2, 3, 2, 3]; // added in some extras
const filtered = arr.filter((v, i) => arr.indexOf(v) !== i)
const unique = new Set(filtered)
console.info(Array.from(unique)) // using Array.from so it can be logged
var arr = [1, 2, 3, 4, 2, 3];
var o = arr.reduce((o, n) => {
n in o ? o[n] += 1 : o[n] = 1;
return o;
}, {});
var res = Object.keys(o).filter(k => o[k] > 1);
console.log(res);
A bit hacky, but short and O(n):
var arr = [1, 2, 3, 4, 2, 3, 2, 2]
var a = arr.reduce((r, v) => ((r[v + .1] = r[v + .1] + 1 || 1) - 2 || r.push(v), r), [])
console.log( a ) // [2,3]
console.log({ ...a }) // to show the "hidden" items
console.log({ ...a.slice() }) // .slice() can be used to remove the extra items
It could be done like:
function timesInArray(v, a){
var n = 0;
for(var i=0,l=a.length; i<l; i++){
if(a[i] === v){
n++;
}
}
return n;
}
function dups(dupArray, num){
var n = num === undefined ? 2 : num;
var r = [];
for(var i=0,d,l=dupArray.length; i<l; i++){
d = dupArray[i];
if(!timesInArray(d, r) && timesInArray(d, dupArray) >= n){
r.push(d);
}
}
return r;
}
var testArray = [4, 5, 2, 5, 7, 7, 2, 1, 3, 7, 7, 7, 25, 77, 4, 2];
console.log(dups(testArray)); console.log(dups(testArray, 3));
I found this JavaScript algorithm excercise:
Question:
From a unsorted array of numbers 1 to 100 excluding one number, how will you find that number?
The solution the author gives is:
function missingNumber(arr) {
var n = arr.length + 1,
sum = 0,
expectedSum = n * (n + 1) / 2;
for (var i = 0, len = arr.length; i < len; i++) {
sum += arr[i];
}
return expectedSum - sum;
}
I wanted to try and make it so you can find multiple missing numbers.
My solution:
var someArr = [2, 5, 3, 1, 4, 7, 10, 15]
function findMissingNumbers(arr) {
var missingNumbersCount;
var missingNumbers = [];
arr.sort(function(a, b) {
return a - b;
})
for(var i = 0; i < arr.length; i++) {
if(arr[i+1] - arr[i] != 1 && arr[i+1] != undefined) {
missingNumbersCount = arr[i+1] - arr[i] - 1;
for(j = 1; j <= missingNumbersCount; j++) {
missingNumbers.push(arr[i] + j)
}
}
}
return missingNumbers
}
findMissingNumbers(someArr) // [6, 8, 9, 11, 12, 13, 14]
Is there a better way to do this? It has to be JavaScript, since that's what I'm practicing.
You could use a sparse array with 1-values at indexes that correspond to values in the input array. Then you could create yet another array with all numbers (with same length as the sparse array), and retain only those values that correspond to an index with a 1-value in the sparse array.
This will run in O(n) time:
function findMissingNumbers(arr) {
// Create sparse array with a 1 at each index equal to a value in the input.
var sparse = arr.reduce((sparse, i) => (sparse[i]=1,sparse), []);
// Create array 0..highest number, and retain only those values for which
// the sparse array has nothing at that index (and eliminate the 0 value).
return [...sparse.keys()].filter(i => i && !sparse[i]);
}
var someArr = [2, 5, 3, 1, 4, 7, 10, 15]
var result = findMissingNumbers(someArr);
console.log(result);
NB: this requires EcmaScript2015 support.
The simplest solution to this problem
miss = (arr) => {
let missArr=[];
let l = Math.max(...arr);
let startsWithZero = arr.indexOf(0) > -1 ? 0 : 1;
for(i = startsWithZero; i < l; i++) {
if(arr.indexOf(i) < 0) {
missArr.push(i);
}
}
return missArr;
}
miss([3,4,1,2,6,8,12]);
Something like this will do what you want.
var X = [2, 5, 3, 1, 4, 7, 10, 15]; // Array of numbers
var N = Array.from(Array(Math.max.apply(Math, X)).keys()); //Generate number array using the largest int from X
Array.prototype.diff = function(a) {
return this.filter(function(i) {return a.indexOf(i) < 0;}); //Return the difference
};
console.log(N.diff(X));
Option 1:
1. create a binary array
2. iterate over input array and for each element mark binary array true.
3. iterate over binary array and find out numbers of false.
Time complexity = O(N)
Space complexity = N
Option 2:
Sort input array O(nLogn)
iterate over sorted array and identify missing number a[i+1]-a[i] > 0
O(n)
total time complexity = O(nlogn) + O(n)
I think the best way to do this without any iterations for a single missing number would be to just use the sum approach.
const arr=[1-100];
let total=n*(n+1)/2;
let totalarray=array.reduce((t,i)=>t+i);
console.log(total-totalarray);
You can try this:
let missingNum= (n) => {
return n
.sort((a, b) => a - b)
.reduce((r, v, i, a) =>
(l => r.concat(Array.from({ length: v - l - 1 }, _ => ++l)))(a[i - 1]),
[]
)
}
console.log(missingNum([1,2,3,4,10]));
Solution to find missing numbers from unsorted array or array containing duplicate values.
Array.prototype.max = function() {
return Math.max.apply(null, this);
};
var array1 = [1, 3, 4, 7, 9];
var n = array1.length;
var totalElements = array1.max(); // Total count including missing numbers. Can use max
var d = new Uint8Array(totalElements)
for(let i=0; i<n; i++){
d[array1[i]-1] = 1;
}
var outputArray = [];
for(let i=0; i<totalElements; i++) {
if(d[i] == 0) {
outputArray.push(i+1)
}
}
console.log(outputArray.toString());
My solution uses the same logic as trincot's answer
The time complexity is O(n)
const check_miss = (n) => {
let temp = Array(Math.max(...n)).fill(0);
n.forEach((item) => (temp[item] = 1));
const missing_items = temp
.map((item, index) => (item === 0 ? index : -1))
.filter((item) => item !== -1);
console.log(missing_items);
};
n = [5, 4, 2, 1, 10, 20, 0];
check_miss(n);
I am saving some data in order using arrays, and I want to add a function that the user can reverse the list. I can't think of any possible method, so if anybody knows how, please help.
Javascript has a reverse() method that you can call in an array
var a = [3,5,7,8];
a.reverse(); // 8 7 5 3
Not sure if that's what you mean by 'libraries you can't use', I'm guessing something to do with practice. If that's the case, you can implement your own version of .reverse()
function reverseArr(input) {
var ret = new Array;
for(var i = input.length-1; i >= 0; i--) {
ret.push(input[i]);
}
return ret;
}
var a = [3,5,7,8]
var b = reverseArr(a);
Do note that the built-in .reverse() method operates on the original array, thus you don't need to reassign a.
Array.prototype.reverse() is all you need to do this work. See compatibility table.
var myArray = [20, 40, 80, 100];
var revMyArr = [].concat(myArray).reverse();
console.log(revMyArr);
// [100, 80, 40, 20]
Heres a functional way to do it.
const array = [1,2,3,4,5,6,"taco"];
function reverse(array){
return array.map((item,idx) => array[array.length-1-idx])
}
20 bytes
let reverse=a=>[...a].map(a.pop,a)
const original = [1, 2, 3, 4];
const reversed = [...original].reverse(); // 4 3 2 1
Concise and leaves the original unchanged.
reveresed = [...array].reverse()
The shortest reverse method I've seen is this one:
let reverse = a=>a.sort(a=>1)
**
Shortest reverse array method without using reverse method:
**
var a = [0, 1, 4, 1, 3, 9, 3, 7, 8544, 4, 2, 1, 2, 3];
a.map(a.pop,[...a]);
// returns [3, 2, 1, 2, 4, 8544, 7, 3, 9, 3, 1, 4, 1, 0]
a.pop method takes an last element off and puts upfront with spread operator ()

two ways:
counter loop
function reverseArray(a) {
var rA = []
for (var i = a.length; i > 0; i--) {
rA.push(a[i - 1])
}
return rA;
}
Using .reverse()
function reverseArray(a) {
return a.reverse()
}
This is what you want:
array.reverse();
DEMO
Here is a version which does not require temp array.
function inplaceReverse(arr) {
var i = 0;
while (i < arr.length - 1) {
arr.splice(i, 0, arr.pop());
i++;
}
return arr;
}
// Useage:
var arr = [1, 2, 3];
console.log(inplaceReverse(arr)); // [3, 2, 1]
I've made some test of solutions that not only reverse array but also makes its copy. Here is test code. The reverse2 method is the fastest one in Chrome but in Firefox the reverse method is the fastest.
var array = [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9];
var reverse1 = function() {
var reversed = array.slice().reverse();
};
var reverse2 = function() {
var reversed = [];
for (var i = array.length - 1; i >= 0; i--) {
reversed.push(array[i]);
}
};
var reverse3 = function() {
var reversed = [];
array.forEach(function(v) {
reversed.unshift(v);
});
};
console.time('reverse1');
for (var x = 0; x < 1000000; x++) {
reverse1();
}
console.timeEnd('reverse1'); // Around 184ms on my computer in Chrome
console.time('reverse2');
for (var x = 0; x < 1000000; x++) {
reverse2();
}
console.timeEnd('reverse2'); // Around 78ms on my computer in Chrome
console.time('reverse3');
for (var x = 0; x < 1000000; x++) {
reverse3();
}
console.timeEnd('reverse3'); // Around 1114ms on my computer in Chrome
53 bytes
function reverse(a){
for(i=0,j=a.length-1;i<j;)a[i]=a[j]+(a[j--]=a[i++],0)
}
Just for fun, here's an alternative implementation that is faster than the native .reverse method.
You can do
var yourArray = ["first", "second", "third", "...", "etc"]
var reverseArray = yourArray.slice().reverse()
console.log(reverseArray)
You will get
["etc", "...", "third", "second", "first"]
> var arr = [1,2,3,4,5,6];
> arr.reverse();
[6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1]
array.reverse()
Above will reverse your array but modifying the original.
If you don't want to modify the original array then you can do this:
var arrayOne = [1,2,3,4,5];
var reverse = function(array){
var arrayOne = array
var array2 = [];
for (var i = arrayOne.length-1; i >= 0; i--){
array2.push(arrayOne[i])
}
return array2
}
reverse(arrayOne)
function reverseArray(arr) {
let reversed = [];
for (i = 0; i < arr.length; i++) {
reversed.push((arr[arr.length-1-i]))
}
return reversed;
}
Using .pop() method and while loop.
var original = [1,2,3,4];
var reverse = [];
while(original.length){
reverse.push(original.pop());
}
Output: [4,3,2,1]
I'm not sure what is meant by libraries, but here are the best ways I can think of:
// return a new array with .map()
const ReverseArray1 = (array) => {
let len = array.length - 1;
return array.map(() => array[len--]);
}
console.log(ReverseArray1([1,2,3,4,5])) //[5,4,3,2,1]
// initialize and return a new array
const ReverseArray2 = (array) => {
const newArray = [];
let len = array.length;
while (len--) {
newArray.push(array[len]);
}
return newArray;
}
console.log(ReverseArray2([1,2,3,4,5]))//[5,4,3,2,1]
// use swapping and return original array
const ReverseArray3 = (array) => {
let i = 0;
let j = array.length - 1;
while (i < j) {
const swap = array[i];
array[i++] = array[j];
array[j--] = swap;
}
return array;
}
console.log(ReverseArray3([1,2,3,4,5]))//[5,4,3,2,1]
// use .pop() and .length
const ReverseArray4 = (array) => {
const newArray = [];
while (array.length) {
newArray.push(array.pop());
}
return newArray;
}
console.log(ReverseArray4([1,2,3,4,5]))//[5,4,3,2,1]
As others mentioned, you can use .reverse() on the array object.
However if you care about preserving the original object, you may use reduce instead:
const original = ['a', 'b', 'c'];
const reversed = original.reduce( (a, b) => [b].concat(a) );
// ^
// |
// +-- prepend b to previous accumulation
// original: ['a', 'b', 'c'];
// reversed: ['c', 'b', 'a'];
Pure functions to reverse an array using functional programming:
var a = [3,5,7,8];
// ES2015
function immutableReverse(arr) {
return [ ...a ].reverse();
}
// ES5
function immutableReverse(arr) {
return a.concat().reverse()
}
It can also be achieved using map method.
[1, 2, 3].map((value, index, arr) => arr[arr.length - index - 1])); // [3, 2, 1]
Or using reduce (little longer approach)
[1, 2, 3].reduce((acc, curr, index, arr) => {
acc[arr.length - index - 1] = curr;
return acc;
}, []);
reverse in place with variable swapping (mutative)
const myArr = ["a", "b", "c", "d"];
for (let i = 0; i < (myArr.length - 1) / 2; i++) {
const lastIndex = myArr.length - 1 - i;
[myArr[i], myArr[lastIndex]] = [myArr[lastIndex], myArr[i]]
}
Reverse by using the sort method
This is a much more succinct method.
const resultN = document.querySelector('.resultN');
const resultL = document.querySelector('.resultL');
const dataNum = [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9];
const dataLetters = ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e'];
const revBySort = (array) => array.sort((a, b) => a < b);
resultN.innerHTML = revBySort(dataNum);
resultL.innerHTML = revBySort(dataLetters);
<div class="resultN"></div>
<div class="resultL"></div>
Using ES6 rest operator and arrow function.
const reverse = ([x, ...s]) => x ? [...reverse(s), x] : [];
reverse([1,2,3,4,5]) //[5, 4, 3, 2, 1]
Use swapping and return the original array.
const reverseString = (s) => {
let start = 0, end = s.length - 1;
while (start < end) {
[s[start], s[end]] = [s[end], s[start]]; // swap
start++, end--;
}
return s;
};
console.log(reverseString(["s", "t", "r", "e", "s", "s", "e", "d"]));
Infact the reverse() may not work in some cases, so you have to make an affectation first as the following
let a = [1, 2, 3, 4];
console.log(a); // [1,2,3,4]
a = a.reverse();
console.log(a); // [4,3,2,1]
or use concat
let a = [1, 2, 3, 4];
console.log(a, a.concat([]).reverse()); // [1,2,3,4], [4,3,2,1]
What about without using push() !
Solution using XOR !
var myARray = [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8];
function rver(x){
var l = x.length;
for(var i=0; i<Math.floor(l/2); i++){
var a = x[i];
var b = x[l-1-i];
a = a^b;
b = b^a;
a = a^b;
x[i] = a;
x[l-1-i] = b;
}
return x;
}
console.log(rver(myARray));
JavaScript already has reverse() method on Array, so you don't need to do that much!
Imagine you have the array below:
var arr = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5];
Now simply just do this:
arr.reverse();
and you get this as the result:
[5, 4, 3, 2, 1];
But this basically change the original array, you can write a function and use it to return a new array instead, something like this:
function reverse(arr) {
var i = arr.length, reversed = [];
while(i) {
i--;
reversed.push(arr[i]);
}
return reversed;
}
Or simply chaning JavaScript built-in methods for Array like this:
function reverse(arr) {
return arr.slice().reverse();
}
and you can call it like this:
reverse(arr); //return [5, 4, 3, 2, 1];
Just as mentioned, the main difference is in the second way, you don't touch the original array...
How about this?:
function reverse(arr) {
function doReverse(a, left, right) {
if (left >= right) {
return a;
}
const temp = a[left];
a[left] = a[right];
a[right] = temp;
left++;
right--;
return doReverse(a, left, right);
}
return doReverse(arr, 0, arr.length - 1);
}
console.log(reverse([1,2,3,4]));

Assume we have the following arrays:
a = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
and
b = [2, 3]
How can I subtract b from a? So that we have c = a - b which should be equal to [1, 4, 5]. jQuery solution would also be fine.
Assuming you're on a browser that has Array.prototype.filter and Array.prototype.indexOf, you could use this:
var c = a.filter(function(item) {
return b.indexOf(item) === -1;
});
If the browser in question does not have those methods, you may be able to shim them.
This is a modified version of the answer posted by #icktoofay.
In ES6 we can make use of:
Array.prototype.contains()
Array.prototype.filter()
Arrow functions
This will simplify our code to:
var c = a.filter(x => !b.includes(x));
Demo:
var a = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5];
var b = [2, 3];
var c = a.filter(x => !b.includes(x));
console.log(c);
For code that would work in all browsers, you would have to manually find each element from b in a and remove it.
var a = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5];
var b = [2, 3];
var result = [], found;
for (var i = 0; i < a.length; i++) {
found = false;
// find a[i] in b
for (var j = 0; j < b.length; j++) {
if (a[i] == b[j]) {
found = true;
break;
}
}
if (!found) {
result.push(a[i]);
}
}
// The array result now contains just the items from a that are not in b
Working example here: http://jsfiddle.net/jfriend00/xkBzR/
And, here's a version that could be faster for large arrays because it puts everything into an object for hashed lookups rather than brute force array searching:
var a = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5];
var b = [2, 3];
function filterArray(src, filt) {
var temp = {}, i, result = [];
// load contents of filt into object keys for faster lookup
for (i = 0; i < filt.length; i++) {
temp[filt[i]] = true;
}
// go through src
for (i = 0; i < src.length; i++) {
if (!(src[i] in temp)) {
result.push(src[i]);
}
}
return(result);
}
var filtered = filterArray(a, b);
Working example here: http://jsfiddle.net/jfriend00/LUcx6/
For the ones struggling with Objects, like Date, you'll find out that two different objects are never equal to each other, even if they have the same values, so the answers above wouldn't work.
Here is an answer to this problem in ES6.
const c = a.filter(aObject => b.findIndex(bObject => aObject.valueOf() === bObject.valueOf()) === -1)
Here an implementation for try works in all browsers:
if('filter' in Array == false) {
Array.prototype.filter =
function(callback) {
if(null == this || void 0 == this) {
return;
}
var filtered = [];
for(i = 0, len = this.length; i < len; i++) {
var tmp = this[i];
if(callback(tmp)) {
filtered.push(tmp);
}
}
return filtered;
}
}
a = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5];
b = [2, 3];
var c = a.filter(function(item) { /*implementation of icktoofay */
return b.indexOf(item) === -1;
});
Might be an outdated query but i thought this might be useful to someone.
let first = [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,9];
let second = [2,4,6,8];
const difference = first.filter(item=>!second.includes(item));
console.log(difference);//[ 1, 3, 6,7]
/*
the above will not work for objects with properties
This might do the trick
*/
const firstObj = [{a:1,b:2},{a:3,b:4},{a:5,b:6},{a:7,b:8}]//not ideal. I know
const secondObj = [{a:3,b:4},{a:7,b:8}]
const objDiff = firstObj.filter(obj=>
!secondObj.find(sec=>//take note of the "!"
sec.a===obj.a
&&//or use || if you want to check for either or
sec.b===obj.b
)//this is formatted so that it is easily readable
);
console.log(objDiff)/*
[
{
"a": 1,
"b": 2
},
{
"a": 5,
"b": 6
}
]
*/
Imagine I have an array:
A = Array(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9);
And I want it to convert into 2-dimensional array (matrix of N x M), for instance like this:
A = Array(Array(1, 2, 3), Array(4, 5, 6), Array(7, 8, 9));
Note, that rows and columns of the matrix is changeable.
Something like this?
function listToMatrix(list, elementsPerSubArray) {
var matrix = [], i, k;
for (i = 0, k = -1; i < list.length; i++) {
if (i % elementsPerSubArray === 0) {
k++;
matrix[k] = [];
}
matrix[k].push(list[i]);
}
return matrix;
}
Usage:
var matrix = listToMatrix([1, 2, 3, 4, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9], 3);
// result: [[1, 2, 3], [4, 5, 6], [7, 8, 9]]
You can use the Array.prototype.reduce function to do this in one line.
ECMAScript 6 style:
myArr.reduce((rows, key, index) => (index % 3 == 0 ? rows.push([key])
: rows[rows.length-1].push(key)) && rows, []);
"Normal" JavaScript:
myArr.reduce(function (rows, key, index) {
return (index % 3 == 0 ? rows.push([key])
: rows[rows.length-1].push(key)) && rows;
}, []);
You can change the 3 to whatever you want the number of columns to be, or better yet, put it in a reusable function:
ECMAScript 6 style:
const toMatrix = (arr, width) =>
arr.reduce((rows, key, index) => (index % width == 0 ? rows.push([key])
: rows[rows.length-1].push(key)) && rows, []);
"Normal" JavaScript:
function toMatrix(arr, width) {
return arr.reduce(function (rows, key, index) {
return (index % width == 0 ? rows.push([key])
: rows[rows.length-1].push(key)) && rows;
}, []);
}
This code is generic no need to worry about size and array, works universally
function TwoDimensional(arr, size)
{
var res = [];
for(var i=0;i < arr.length;i = i+size)
res.push(arr.slice(i,i+size));
return res;
}
Defining empty array.
Iterate according to the size so we will get specified chunk.That's why I am incrementing i with size, because size can be 2,3,4,5,6......
Here, first I am slicing from i to (i+size) and then I am pushing it to empty array res.
Return the two-dimensional array.
The cleanest way I could come up with when stumbling across this myself was the following:
const arrayToMatrix = (array, columns) => Array(Math.ceil(array.length / columns)).fill('').reduce((acc, cur, index) => {
return [...acc, [...array].splice(index * columns, columns)]
}, [])
where usage would be something like
const things = [
'item 1', 'item 2',
'item 1', 'item 2',
'item 1', 'item 2'
]
const result = arrayToMatrix(things, 2)
where result ends up being
[
['item 1', 'item 2'],
['item 1', 'item 2'],
['item 1', 'item 2']
]
How about something like:
var matrixify = function(arr, rows, cols) {
var matrix = [];
if (rows * cols === arr.length) {
for(var i = 0; i < arr.length; i+= cols) {
matrix.push(arr.slice(i, cols + i));
}
}
return matrix;
};
var a = [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7];
matrixify(a, 2, 4);

Simply use two for loops:
var rowNum = 3;
var colNum = 3;
var k = 0;
var dest = new Array(rowNum);
for (i=0; i<rowNum; ++i) {
var tmp = new Array(colNum);
for (j=0; j<colNum; ++j) {
tmp[j] = src[k];
k++;
}
dest[i] = tmp;
}
function matrixify( source, count )
{
var matrixified = [];
var tmp;
// iterate through the source array
for( var i = 0; i < source.length; i++ )
{
// use modulous to make sure you have the correct length.
if( i % count == 0 )
{
// if tmp exists, push it to the return array
if( tmp && tmp.length ) matrixified.push(tmp);
// reset the temporary array
tmp = [];
}
// add the current source value to the temp array.
tmp.push(source[i])
}
// return the result
return matrixified;
}
If you want to actually replace an array's internal values, I believe you can call the following:
source.splice(0, source.length, matrixify(source,3));
This a simple way to convert an array to a two-dimensional array.
function twoDarray(arr, totalPerArray) {
let i = 0;
let twoDimension = []; // Store the generated two D array
let tempArr = [...arr]; // Avoid modifying original array
while (i < arr.length) {
let subArray = []; // Store 2D subArray
for (var j = 0; j < totalPerArray; j++) {
if (tempArr.length) subArray.push(tempArr.shift());
}
twoDimension[twoDimension.length] = subArray;
i += totalPerArray;
}
return twoDimension;
}
const arr = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9];
twoDarray(arr, 3); // [ [ 1, 2, 3 ], [ 4, 5, 6 ], [ 7, 8, 9 ] ]
function changeDimension(arr, size) {
var arrLen = arr.length;
var newArr = [];
var count=0;
var tempArr = [];
for(var i=0; i<arrLen; i++) {
count++;
tempArr.push(arr[i]);
if (count == size || i == arrLen-1) {
newArr.push(tempArr);
tempArr = [];
count = 0;
}
}
return newArr;
}
changeDimension([0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5], 4);
function matrixify(array, n, m) {
var result = [];
for (var i = 0; i < n; i++) {
result[i] = array.splice(0, m);
}
return result;
}
a = matrixify(a, 3, 3);
function chunkArrToMultiDimArr(arr, size) {
var newArray = [];
while(arr.length > 0)
{
newArray.push(arr.slice(0, size));
arr = arr.slice(size);
}
return newArray;
}
//example - call function
chunkArrToMultiDimArr(["a", "b", "c", "d"], 2);
you can use push and slice like this
var array = [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9] ;
var newarray = [[],[]] ;
newarray[0].push(array) ;
console.log(newarray[0]) ;
output will be
[[1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]]
if you want divide array into 3 array
var array = [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9] ;
var newarray = [[],[]] ;
newarray[0].push(array.slice(0,2)) ;
newarray[1].push(array.slice(3,5)) ;
newarray[2].push(array.slice(6,8)) ;
instead of three lines you can use splice
while(array.length) newarray.push(array.splice(0,3));
const x: any[] = ['abc', 'def', '532', '4ad', 'qwe', 'hf', 'fjgfj'];
// number of columns
const COL = 3;
const matrix = array.reduce((matrix, item, index) => {
if (index % COL === 0) {
matrix.push([]);
}
matrix[matrix.length - 1].push(item);
return matrix;
}, [])
console.log(matrix);
Using the Array grouping proposal (currently stage 3), you can now also do something like the following:
function chunkArray(array, perChunk) {
return Object.values(array.group((_, i) => i / perChunk | 0));
}
See also the MDN documentation for Array.prototype.group().
Simplest way with ES6 using Array.from()
const matrixify = (arr, size) =>
Array.from({ length: Math.ceil(arr.length / size) }, (v, i) =>
arr.slice(i * size, i * size + size));
const list = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12] ;
console.log(matrixify(list, 3));
Another stab at it,
Creating an empty matrix (Array of row arrays)
Iterating arr and assigning to matching rows
function arrayToMatrix(arr, wantedRows) {
// create a empty matrix (wantedRows Array of Arrays]
// with arr in scope
return new Array(wantedRows).fill(arr)
// replace with the next row from arr
.map(() => arr.splice(0, wantedRows))
}
// Initialize arr
arr = new Array(16).fill(0).map((val, i) => i)
// call!!
console.log(arrayToMatrix(arr, 4));
// Trying to make it nice
const arrToMat = (arr, wantedRows) => new Array(wantedRows).fill(arr)
.map(() => arr.splice(0, wantedRows))
(like in: this one)
(and: this one from other thread)
MatArray Class?
Extending an Array to add to a prototype, seems useful, it does need some features to complement the Array methods, maybe there is a case for a kind of MatArray Class? also for multidimensional mats and flattening them, maybe, maybe not..
1D Array convert 2D array via rows number:
function twoDimensional(array, row) {
let newArray = [];
let arraySize = Math.floor(array.length / row);
let extraArraySize = array.length % row;
while (array.length) {
if (!!extraArraySize) {
newArray.push(array.splice(0, arraySize + 1));
extraArraySize--;
} else {
newArray.push(array.splice(0, arraySize));
}
}
return newArray;
}
function twoDimensional(array, row) {
let newArray = [];
let arraySize = Math.floor(array.length / row);
let extraArraySize = array.length % row;
while (array.length) {
if (!!extraArraySize) {
newArray.push(array.splice(0, arraySize + 1));
extraArraySize--;
} else {
newArray.push(array.splice(0, arraySize));
}
}
return newArray;
}
console.log(twoDimensional([1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14], 3))
Short answer use:
const gridArray=(a,b)=>{const d=[];return a.forEach((e,f)=>{const
h=Math.floor(f/b);d[h]=d[h]||[],d[h][f%b]=a[f]}),d};
Where:
a: is the array
b: is the number of columns
An awesome repository here .
api : masfufa.js
sample : masfufa.html
According to that sample , the following snippet resolve the issue :
jsdk.getAPI('my');
var A=[1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9];
var MX=myAPI.getInstance('masfufa',{data:A,dim:'3x3'});
then :
MX.get[0][0] // -> 1 (first)
MX.get[2][2] // ->9 (last)
