var merge = function(nums1, m, nums2, n) {
//contcating two array
let array = nums2.concat(nums1)
// sort the array
array.sort((a,b) => a-b)
// remove element > m+n length
return array.slice(m+n-n)
};
This ^ function is returning -> [1,2,3,0,0,0] if i'm applying console then answer is same as expected -> [1,2,2,3,5,6]
Why is this happening ?
Remove slice function from the end of the function.
slice(m+n-n) slices your sorted array and returns array from index m+1 to the last index.
var merge = function(nums1, m, nums2, n) {
//contcating two array
let array = nums2.concat(nums1)
// sort the array
array.sort((a,b) => a-b)
// remove element > m+n length
return array.slice(m+n-n);
};
console.log(merge([2,4,8,9],4,[0,4,6,9],4));
You can use the following function to merge and then sort the two arrays.
Time complexity of this approach is O(nlogn)
function merge(arr1,arr2){
return [...arr1,...arr2].sort();
}
console.log(merge([4,8,6],[1,3,9,10]));
The second approach runs in O(n) time.
function merge(arr1,m,arr2,n){
let result = [];
let i=0 , j = 0 ;
while(i<m && j<n){
if(arr1[i]<arr2[j]){
result.push(arr1[i]);
i++;
}else{
result.push(arr2[j]);
j++;
}
}
while(i<m){
result.push(arr1[i]);
i++;
}
while(j<n){
result.push(arr2[j]);
j++;
}
return result;
}
console.log(merge([4,5,6],3,[1,3,8,10],4));
I did not see any problem with your code and it works, I just added another code. I think the problem with your console.log.
var merge = function(nums1, m, nums2, n) {
//contcating two array
let array = nums2.concat(nums1)
// sort the array
array.sort((a,b) => a-b)
// remove element > m+n length
return array.slice(m+n-n)
};
console.log(merge([1,2,3,0,0,0],3,[2,5,6],3));
var merge = function(nums1, m, nums2, n) {
return nums1.slice(0, m)
.concat(nums2.slice(0, n))
.sort((i, j) => i - j);
};
console.log( merge([1,2,3,0,0,0],3,[2,5,6],3))
