JakeTheCorn / getDiagonalValuesFromMatrix.js
Last active January 16, 2020 17:16
given a multi dimensional array (matrix) this will return lists of values found in the primary and secondary diagonals
// diagonal starting from top left
function primary(matrix) {
const items = []
for (let i = 0; i < matrix.length; i++) {
items.push(matrix[i][i])
}
return items
}
// diagonal starting from top right

variadic function that returns the longest array in the list
function getLongestArray(...arrays) {
let longestIndex = 0
let longestLength = arrays[0].length
if (arrays.length === 1) {
return arrays[0]
}
for (let i = 1; i < arrays.length; i++) {
if (arrays[i].length > longestLength) {
longestIndex = i
longestLength = arrays[i].length

JakeTheCorn / switch-vs-map.js
Created December 18, 2019 04:08
For the amount of code saved I think python is due some praise for leaving out the switch control structure. It's really a lot less to read.
// SWITCH
function getFriendlySwitch(k) {
switch(k) {
case "0":
return "value1";
case "1":
return "value2";
case "2":
return "value3";
case "3":

Last active November 26, 2019 03:45
little helper function I use to help kill processes running on certain ports.
kill-process-by-port() {
local port_num="$1"
local process_id=$(lsof -i :$port_num | awk 'END{print $2}')
if [ -z "$process_id" ] ; then
echo "Nothing running on port $port_num"
else
kill -9 "$process_id"
echo "process running on port $port_num killed."
fi
}
