Problem
Find The Parity Outlier
You are given an array (which will have a length of at least 3,
but could be very large) containing integers. The array is either
entirely comprised of odd integers or entirely comprised of even
integers except for a single integer N
. Write a method that takes
the array as an argument and returns this "outlier" N
.
Examples
[2, 4, 0, 100, 4, 11, 2602, 36]
Should return: 11 (the only odd number)
[160, 3, 1719, 19, 11, 13, -21]
Should return: 160 (the only even number)
Solution
function findOutlier(integers){
odd = integers.filter(a => a&1);
even = integers.filter(a => ~a&1);
return odd.length===1?odd[0]:even[0];
}
function findOutlier(integers){
return integers
.slice(0, 3)
.filter(a => a&1)
.length<2?
integers.find(a => a&1):
integers.find(a => ~a&1);
}
