Useful JavaScript Code Snippets for Common Problems

Hey Coders!
JavaScript is one of the widely used languages in Web Development. A broad and vital ecosystem has evolved around JS, offering tons and tons of frameworks and libraries that help you develop applications faster. At the same time, it made our coding experience a little complicated. Sometimes its good to take a step back and try to understand how to do things without a library. In this article, we will be going through some JS snippets which will provide a little help with those repetitive, simple tasks that come up each day.

1. Sort an array

//stringsconst names = ["Seema", "Rekha", "Jaya"];names.sort();//['Jaya', 'Rekha', 'Seema' ]//Numbersconst numbers = [101, 8, 87];numbers.sort((a, b) => {  return a - b;});//[ 8, 87, 101 ]

2. Select a random element

const items = ["Ball", "Bat", "Cup"]const randomIndex = Math.floor(Math.random()*items.length)items[randomIndex]

3. Reverse a string

function reverseString(string) {       return string.split(" ").reverse().join(" ")}revereseString("Random String")

4. Check if element has a class

const element = document.querySelector("#element")element.classList.contains("active")

5. String interpolation

const name = "Jaya"console.log(`Hi, ${name}. You have ${2 ** 3} new notifications.`}//Hi, Jaya. You have 8 new notifications.

6. Loop through an array

const cars = ["Ford", "BMW", "Audi" ]for (let car of cars) {      console.log(car)}/*FordBMWAudi*/

7. Get current time

const date = new Date()const currentTime =    `${date.getHours()}:${date.getMintues()}:${date.getSeconds()}`console.log(currentTimes)//example output: "22:16:41"

8. Replace part of a string

const string = "You are awesome."const replacedString = string.replace("You", "We")console.log(replacedString) //Output: "We are awesome"

9. Destructing variable assignment

let profile = ['bob', 34, 'carpenter'];let [name, age, job] = profile;console.log(name);// bob

10. Using the spread operator

let data = [1,2,3,4,5];console.log(...data);//  1 2 3 4 5let data2 = [6,7,8,9,10];let combined = [...data, ...data2];console.log(...combined);// 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10console.log(Math.max(...combined));// 10

11. Return [Number] Maximum Elements From an Array

const maxElement = ( array, number = 1 ) => [...array].sort(( x,y ) => y - x).slice(0, number);//Example maxElement ([ 1,2,3,4,5]);  // [5]maxElement([ 6, 7, 8, 9 , 10, 10] , 2);   // [10,10]
