JavaScript: Tips of the Day
Returns 1 if the array is sorted in ascending order, -1 if it is sorted in descending order or 0 if it is not sorted
Example:
const tips_Sorted = arr => { let direction = -(arr[0] - arr[1]); for (let [i, val] of arr.entries()) { direction = !direction ? -(arr[i - 1] - arr[i]) : direction; if (i === arr.length - 1) return !direction ? 0 : direction / Math.abs(direction); else if ((val - arr[i + 1]) * direction > 0) return 0; } }; console.log(tips_Sorted([0, 1, 2, 2])); console.log(tips_Sorted([5, 7, 3])); console.log(tips_Sorted([8, 6, 4]));
