I have an array of objects called seasons of length 300, and I trying to search through a certain property "Date" and add it to an array if it has not been found before. So far I have
var day=[];
for (var i=1; i<300; i++) {
var found=false;
for (var j=0; j<day.length; j++) {
if (day[j]==seasons[i]["Date"]) {
found=true;
break;
}
if (!found) {
day[day.length]=seasons[i]["Date"];
}
}
}
I'm not too sure where this is going wrong, and would appreciate some help. Thanks
You break out of the inner for-loop, so the if (!found) block is never executed.
Just put it after the inner loop:
for (var i = 1; i < 300; i++) {
var found = false;
for (var j = 0; j < day.length; j++) {
if (day[j] == seasons[i]["Date"]) {
found = true;
break;
}
}
if (!found) {
day[day.length] = seasons[i]["Date"];
}
}
Or do it in the if-block:
for (var i = 1; i < 300; i++) {
for (var j = 0; j < day.length; j++) {
if (day[j] == seasons[i]["Date"]) {
day[day.length] = seasons[i]["Date"];
break;
}
}
}
I guess the latter solution is easier to understand.

I am trying to write a matrix library in processing using javascript but keep getting the error above on line 5. I can't seem to spot what is causing the error so any help would be appreciated.
The goal is to implement the matrix product function.
function Matrix(rows,cols){
this.rows = rows;
this.cols = cols;
this.data = [];
for(var i = 0; i < this.rows; i++){
//assign every row an array
this.data[i] = [];
for (var j = 0; j < this.cols; j++){
//assign every column an array
this.data[i][j] = 0;
}
}
}
Matrix.prototype.multiply = function(n){
if(n instanceof Matrix){
// Matrix product
if (this.cols !== n.rows) {
console.log('Columns of A must match rows of B.');
return undefined;
}
let result = new Matrix(this.rows, n.cols);
for (let i = 0; i < result.rows; i++) {
for (let j = 0; j < result.cols; j++) {
// Dot product of values in col
let sum = 0;
for (let k = 0; k < this.cols; k++) {
sum += this.data[i][k] * n.data[k][j];
}
result.data[i][j] = sum;
}
}
return result;
}
else{
for(var i = 0; i < this.rows; i++){
for (var j = 0; j < this.cols; j++){
//multiply scalar
this.data[i][j] *= n;
}
}
}
}
I found the error it was just a curly bracket in the wrong place!
I am trying to create and initialize a bidimensional array in javascript inside an AngularJS application as follows:
$scope.invalidVote = [];
for (var i = 0; i < $scope.arry1.length; i += 1) {
$scope.answersCount[i] = $scope.arry1[i].arry2.length;
for(var j = 0; j < $scope.arry1[i].arry2.length; j += 1) {
$scope.invalidVote[i][j] = false;
}
}
But it doesn't work, What is the right way to do that?
try this:
$scope.invalidVote = [];
for (var i = 0; i < $scope.arry1.length; i++) {
$scope.answersCount[i] = $scope.arry1[i].arry2.length;
$scope.invalidVote[i] = [];
for(var j = 0; j < $scope.arry1[i].arry2.length; j++) {
$scope.invalidVote[i][j] = false;
}
}
I'm assuming $scope.arry1[i] is an array that contain other arrays and is already fill with values.
So your code should look like:
$scope.invalidVote = $scope.arry1;
for (var i = 0; i < $scope.arry1.length; i += 1)
{
$scope.answersCount[i] = $scope.arry1[i].length;
for(var j = 0; j < $scope.arry1[i].length; j += 1)
{
$scope.invalidVote[i][j] = false;
}
}
'$scope.invalidVote = $scope.arry1;' declaring "invalidVote" like this ensure it contains the same amount of indexes.
The aim of the bellow function is to output only the non-unique items from an array that is passed as an argument:
"use strict";
function nonUnique(data){
var tab = [];
for(var d = 0; d < data.length; d++) {
if(typeof(data[d]) == "string"){
tab[d] = data[d].toUpperCase();
}
else{
tab[d] = data[d];
}
}
var count = 0;
var tab_non_unique = [];
var tab_unique = [];
for(var i = 0; i < tab.length; i++){
for(var j = 0; j < tab.length; j++){
if(tab[i] == tab[j]){
count ++;
}
if(count > 1){
tab_non_unique.push(tab[i]);
count = 0;
break;
}
if (count == 1) {
tab_unique.push(tab[i]);
}
}
}
return tab_non_unique;
}
I have tested the function by calling it on different arrays but somehow on
nonUnique([1, 2, 3, 4, 5]);
it fails by returning:
=> [ 2, 4 ]
I don't understand what in my code causes 2 and 4 to raise the counter higher than 1 and thus end up in the tab_non_unique array. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.
The problem is that you reset count only if a non-unique is found. But it should be reset always when starting with a new number.
So put the count=0 at the top of the loop.
for (var i = 0; i < tab.length; i++) {
count = 0;
for (var j = 0; j < tab.length; j++) {
if (tab[i] == tab[j]) {
count++;
}
if (count > 1) {
tab_non_unique.push(tab[i]);
break;
}
if (count == 1) {
tab_unique.push(tab[i]);
}
}
}
I have an array and by looping I compare cell with a cell near it. I get the 'out of range' exception,
How can I fix it ?
for (var i = 0; i < array.length ; i++) {
if ((++array[i] == array[i+1])) {
alert("yes");
}
else {
alert("no");
}
}
Run your loop from for (var i=0; i<array.length -1; i++) instead (because you compare against array[i+1])
Just try with:
for (var i = 0; i < array.length - 1; i++) {}
Not sure what you had in mind but using ++ outside of a for loop is never a good idea as it can be confusing. Use another variable to point to another item in the array while looping together with a bounds checker is easier to debug and keeps loop simple.
//displays 01010
//1=2(0),2=2(1),2=4(0),4=4(1),4=5(0)
var ptr = 0;
var items = new Array (1, 2, 2, 4, 4, 5);
for (var i = 0; i < items.length; i++) {
ptr++
if(ptr >= items.length)break;
if (items[i] == items[ptr]) {
console.log(1);
}
else {
console.log(0);
}
}
//or
//displays 10001 as each value is increased then compared
//2=2(1),3=2(0),3=4(0),5=4(0),5=5(1)
ptr = 0;
for (var i = 0; i < items.length; i++) {
ptr++
if (ptr >= items.length) break;
if (++items[i] == items[ptr]) {
console.log(1);
}
else {
console.log(0);
}
}
I'd like to check which elements are equal in my two arrays, but can't get it working.
This is my code:
for (var i; i < bombs.length; i++) {
for (var j; j < bombsDb.length; j++) {
if (bombs[i].name === bombsDb[j].address) {
console.log(bombs[i].name);
} else {
console.log("non-equal elements");
}
}
}
So the first array contains objects from the google places api and the second one contains data from my database.
Thanks in advance!
You have to initialize i and j;
for (var i = 0; i < bombs.length; i++) {
for (var j = 0; j < bombsDb.length; j++) {
if (bombs[i].name === bombsDb[j].address) {
console.log(bombs[i].name);
} else {
console.log("non-equal elements");
}
}
}
Comparing can also be done using the .not selector from jquery. Check this:
var a = [1,2,3,4,5,6];
var b = [4,5,6,7,8,9];
$(a).not( $(a).not(b).get() ).get();
This will return the following array
[4,5,6]
You are missing the initial assignment to i and j in your for loop.
// here
// v
for (var i = 0; i < bombs.length; i++) {
// your loop
}
This causes the comparision to return false in the first iteration of the loop since undefined < bombs.length always return false, so it will not proceed.
