Problem
Given an integer array arr
and a filtering function fn
, return a filtered array filteredArr
.
The fn
function takes one or two arguments:
arr[i]
- number from thearr
i
- index ofarr[i]
filteredArr
should only contain the elements from the arr
for which the expression fn(arr[i], i)
evaluates to a truthy value. A truthy value is a value where Boolean(value)
returns true
.
Please solve it without the built-in Array.filter method.
Example 1:
Input: arr = [0,10,20,30], fn = function greaterThan10(n) { return n > 10; }
Output: [20,30]
Explanation:
const newArray = filter(arr, fn); // [20, 30]
The function filters out values that are not greater than 10
Example 2:
Input: arr = [1,2,3], fn = function firstIndex(n, i) { return i === 0; }
Output: [1]
Explanation:
fn can also accept the index of each element
In this case, the function removes elements not at index 0
Example 3:
Input: arr = [-2,-1,0,1,2], fn = function plusOne(n) { return n + 1 }
Output: [-2,0,1,2]
Explanation:
Falsey values such as 0 should be filtered out
Constraints:
0 <= arr.length <= 1000
-109 <= arr[i] <= 109
Solution (Javascript)
/**
* @param {number[]} arr
* @param {Function} fn
* @return {number[]}
*/
var filter = function (arr, fn) {
return arr.filter((x, i) => fn(x, i));
};
Explain:
nope.
Complexity:
- Time complexity : O(n).
- Space complexity : O(n).
