VistasisSorted function in Javascript: How to use for-of-loop in the code
I am a beginner in JS writing code, and I have a question about the isSorted function.
I am supposed to use for-of-loop in the code.
Here is the task:
Declare a function isSorted.
/**
* @param {Array<number>} ??? - an array of numbers
* @returns {boolean} whether or not the given array is sorted
*/
Here is what i wrote
function isSorted(array) {
const result = [];
for (const number of array) {
if (number < number1 && number2 ) {
result.push(number);
}
return true;
}
}
Here is the error message that I get
Here is the test that I could not pass with my code above
actual = isSorted([1, 2, 3]);
expected = true;
if (actual === expected) {
console.log("Test PASSED.");
} else {
console.error("Test FAILED. Keep trying!");
console.group("Result:");
console.log(" actual:", actual);
console.log("expected:", expected);
console.groupEnd();
}
actual = isSorted([3, 2, 3]);
expected = false;
if (actual === expected) {
console.log("Test PASSED.");
} else {
console.error("Test FAILED. Keep trying!");
console.group("Result:");
console.log(" actual:", actual);
console.log("expected:", expected);
console.groupEnd();
}

You can compare the i-th element of the array with the next one. If one element is greater than the following the array is not sorted
function isSorted(array) {
for (let i = 0; i < array.length; ++i) {
if (array[i + 1]) {
if (array[i] > array[i + 1]) {
return false;
}
}
}
return true;
}
Or you can reduce your array to a boolean value (see Array.prototype.reduce()):
function isSorted(array) {
return array.reduce((prev, cur) => prev !== false && cur >= prev && cur)
}
where prev is the the value resulting from the previous iteration and cur the current iteration item.

Try this isSorted function:
function isSorted(array) {
let previousNo = null;
for (const number of array) {
if (previousNo != null && number < previousNo) {
return false;
}
previousNo = number;
}
return true;
}
It still uses the for..of loop, and here's what it's doing:
- "previousNo" will store the number that had been looked at during the previous iteration of the loop, so we can see if our current number is less than it. if it is, that means that the numbers are not stored in ascending order, i.e., it isn't sorted (so we return false in this case).
- If no problems were found in the loop, we return true instead (your version did this as well, the only difference is, you returned true inside the loop, preventing the other items from being checked).

This fuction compare array members: first with second, second with third...etc. If the following member of the array is less than the actual, return false(array is not sorted).
function isSorted(array) {
for (var i = 0; i<array.length; i++) {
if (array[i] > array[i+1]) {
return false;
}
}
return true;
}
