i am starting a new initiative today as “Building Custom Algorithm in Javascript without using inbuilt method”
i hope you guy will find this interesting. i will be writing a Polyfill/Vanilla of one javascript method everyday. starting today with a custom one
Algorithm : Partitioning array elements by range!
Workaround: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6] should produce [“12”, “34”, “56”] or [“123”, “456”] without using map() reduce() filter()
this is my implementation:
Note: always use arrow method. its not just a trend but it protects you from getting into severe undetectable bugs sometime.
Method 1 : using splice()
let groupInString = (array, length)=> { let newArr = []; init = 0; for(let i=0; i <= parseInt(array.length/length); i++){ newArr.push( array.splice(init, length, null).join("") ); init++; } return newArr; } // Testing: groupInString([1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6], 2); //["12", "34", "56"] groupInString([1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6], 3); //["123","456"]
you can also try it on code pen here: Link
Method 2: Replicating same using slice()
let groupInString = (array, length)=> { let newArr = []; init = 0; let lth = length; for(let i=0; i < parseInt(array.length/length); i++){ newArr.push( array.slice(init, lth).join("") ); init = lth; lth += length; } return newArr; }
thanks for catching the point @avalander
i will keep posting new scripts everyday and in case you have some algo you want it scripted(vanilla) then you can just comment it and i will post!
thanks for reading!
