const grades = [9, 8, 5, 7, 7, 4, 9, 8, 8, 3, 6, 8, 5, 6];
for (let i = 0; i < grades.length; i++) {
if (grades[i] >= 8) {
console.log(grades[i])
}
}I'm trying to log how many items from the array fulfil the condition. the output I'm looking for is : 6 (because 6 of the numbers are equal or greater than 8)
tried
let count = 0; for (let i = 0; i < grades.length; i++) {
if (grades[i]>= 8){ count++
console.log(count)
}
}
function countGreaterThan8(grades){
// initialize the counter
let counter = 0;
for (let i = 0; i < grades.length; i++) {
// if the condition satisfied counter will be incremented 1
if (grades[i] >= 8) {
counter++;
}
}
return counter;
}
const grades = [9, 8, 5, 7, 7, 4, 9, 8, 8, 3, 6, 8, 5, 6];
console.log(countGreaterThan8(grades)); // 6
You can call Array.filter to create a new array containing only items that fulfill the condition. You can then make use of the length of the array however you want. Like this
const grades = [9, 8, 5, 7, 7, 4, 9, 8, 8, 3, 6, 8, 5, 6];
const gradesThatPassCondition = grades.filter(grade => grade > 6);
console.log(gradesThatPassCondition.length);
