JavaScript: Get all possible subset with a fixed length combinations in an array
JavaScript Function: Exercise-21 with Solution
Write a JavaScript function to get all possible subset with a fixed length (for example 2) combinations in an array.
Sample array : [1, 2, 3] and subset length is 2
Expected output : [[2, 1], [3, 1], [3, 2], [3, 2, 1]]
Sample Solution: -
HTML Code:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>JavaScript array subset</title>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>
JavaScript Code:
function subset(arra, arra_size)
{
var result_set = [],
result;
for(var x = 0; x < Math.pow(2, arra.length); x++)
{
result = [];
i = arra.length - 1;
do
{
if( (x & (1 << i)) !== 0)
{
result.push(arra[i]);
}
} while(i--);
if( result.length >= arra_size)
{
result_set.push(result);
}
}
return result_set;
}
console.log(subset([1, 2, 3], 2));
Sample Output:
[[2,1],[3,1],[3,2],[3,2,1]]

JavaScript: Tips of the Day
Returns the difference (in days) between two dates
Example:
const tips_DiffBetweenDates = (dateInitial, dateFinal) => (dateFinal - dateInitial) / (1000 * 3600 * 24); console.log(tips_DiffBetweenDates(new Date('2020-05-13'), new Date('2020-06-05')));
Output:
23
