查找数组中最长的string

有一个简短的方法来查找string数组中最长的string?

arr.Max(x => x.Length);

 var longest = arr.sort(function (a, b) { return b.length - a.length; })[0]; 

可能效率更高,但只有自Javascript 1.8 / ECMAScript 5才可用,并且在旧版浏览器中默认不可用:

 var longest = arr.reduce(function (a, b) { return a.length > b.length ? a : b; }); 

我会做这样的事情

 var arr = ['first item', 'second item is longer than the third one', 'third longish item']; var lgth = 0; var longest; for(var i=0; i < arr.length; i++){ if(arr[i].length > lgth){ var lgth = arr[i].length; longest = arr[i]; } } alert(longest);

一个老问题的新答案:在ES6中,你可以缩短:

 Math.max(...(x.map(el => el.length))); 

使用Array.prototype – (sorting类似于我在做小提琴时由@katsPaugh和@deceze发布的内容)

在这里演示

 var arr = [ "2 --", "3 ---", "4 ----", "1 -", "5 -----" ]; Array.prototype.longest=function() { return this.sort( function(a,b) { if (a.length > b.length) return -1; if (a.length < b.length) return 1; return 0 } )[0]; } alert(arr.longest()); 

我看到最短的解决scheme

 function findLong(s){ return Math.max.apply(null, s.split(' ').map(w => w.length)); } 
 var arr = [ 'fdgdfgdfg', 'gdfgf', 'gdfgdfhawsdgd', 'gdf', 'gdfhdfhjurvweadsd' ]; arr.sort(function (a, b) { return b.length - a.length })[0]; 

我会做这样的事情:

 function findLongestWord(str) { var array = str.split(" "); var maxLength=array[0].length; for(var i=0; i < array.length; i++ ) { if(array[i].length > maxLength) maxLength = array[i].length} return maxLength;} findLongestWord("What if we try a super-long word such as otorhinolaryngology"); 

也许不是最快的,但肯定是非常可读的:

 function findLongestWord(array) { var longestWord = ""; array.forEach(function(word) { if(word.length > longestString.length) { longestWord = word; } }); return longestWord; } var word = findLongestWord(["The","quick","brown", "fox", "jumped", "over", "the", "lazy", "dog"]); console.log(word); // result is "jumped" 

自IE9 +以来,支持数组函数forEach 。

 var longest = (arr) => { let sum = 0 arr.map((e) => { sum = e.length > sum ? e.length : sum }) return sum } 

它可以是工作

 function findLongestWord(str) { str = str.split(" "); var sorted = str.sort(function(prev,current){ return prev.length - current.length; }); var index = sorted.length; str = sorted[index-1]; return str; } findLongestWord("The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog"); 

如果你的string已经被分割成一个数组,你将不需要拆分部分。

 function findLongestWord(str) { str = str.split(' '); var longest = 0; for(var i = 0; i < str.length; i++) { if(str[i].length >= longest) { longest = str[i].length; } } return longest; } findLongestWord("The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog"); 

我对Jason的function有了一些启发,并对它做了一些改进,结果得到了相当快的发现者:

 function timo_longest(a) { var c = 0, d = 0, l = 0, i = a.length; if (i) while (i--) { d = a[i].length; if (d > c) { l = i; c = d; } } return a[l]; } arr=["First", "Second", "Third"]; var longest = timo_longest(arr); 

速度结果: http : //jsperf.com/longest-string-in-array/7

 var array = ["hello","falsey","undefined"]; var findLongestWord = function(array){ var longest = array.reduce(function(a,b){ return (a.length > b.length) ? a : b; }); return longest; } findLongestWord(array); 

这是5分钟前我写的非常简单的bug代码。 我没有时间来修复错误,但如果你有这个想法,你可以改变和使用它。

 Array.prototype.MaxBy = function(fn) { var max = 0; var element; for (var i = 0; i < this.length; i++) { var ret = fn(this[i]); if (ret > max) { max = ret; element = this[i]; } } return element; }; function showOldestPerson() { var array = [{ Name: "cihat", Age: 28 }, { Name: "Ali", Age: 30 }, { Name: "Kutlu", Age: 27}]; var person = array.MaxBy(function(item) { return item.Age; }); alert(person.Name); }
