Calculates the weighted average of two or more numbers.
|
||||
|
||||
- Use `Array.prototype.reduce()` to create the weighted sum of the values and the sum of the weights.
|
||||
- Divide them with each other to get the weighted average.
|
||||
|
||||
```js
|
||||
const weightedAverage = (nums, weights) => {
|
||||
const [sum, weightSum] = weights.reduce(
|
||||
(acc, w, i) => {
|
||||
acc[0] = acc[0] + nums[i] * w;
|
||||
acc[1] = acc[1] + w;
|
||||
return acc;
|
||||
},
|
||||
[0, 0]
|
||||
);
|
||||
return sum / weightSum;
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
```js
|
||||
weightedAverage([1, 2, 3], [0.6, 0.2, 0.3]); // 1.72727
|
||||
```
