Max subarray length which sum not bigger than the main array length

Possible sub-arrays for [1, 2, 3, 4]

[1],
[2], [1, 2],
[3], [1, 3], [2, 3], [1, 2, 3],
[4], [1, 4], [2, 4], [1, 2, 4], [3, 4], [1, 3, 4], [2, 3, 4], [1, 2, 3, 4]

Split an array into chunks without mutability

Navigation between pages/views

Using an array to keep track of where we came from. Try it, click the right top buttons to navigate and check the backward arrow, any time you go to the Main page the tracking will be reseted.

Flattening arrays of objects

Starting from the previous example we are going to flatten arrays of objects with 3 method:

  • map with join
  • forEach with concat
  • forEach with push


We are trying to do it in a functional way, clearer and shorter. The more (nested) elements you have, the better the map option will be versus forEach with concat. If we are looking for the fastest option, a classical for with push will be the best one as JapanFever said and the worst a forEach with concat.

Just launch these basic test I made in jsPerf and try yourself:

https://jsperf.com/flattening-arrays-of-objects

The more (nested) elements you have, the more equal the forEach will be comparing with the classical for.

JavaScript engines performance are improving constantly and I hope to see a better way to flatten using map xD
