Returns `true` if two arrays contain the same elements regardless of order, `false` otherwise.
|
||||
|
||||
Use a `for...of` loop over a `Set` created from the values of both arrays.
|
||||
Use `Array.prototype.filter()` to compare the amount of occurences of each distinct value in both arrays.
|
||||
Return `false` if the counts do not match for any element, `true` otherwise.
|
||||
|
||||
```js
|
||||
const haveSameContents = (a, b) => {
|
||||
for (const v of new Set([...a, ...b]))
|
||||
if (a.filter(e => e === v).length !== b.filter(e => e === v).length)
|
||||
return false;
|
||||
return true;
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
```js
|
||||
haveSameContents([1, 2, 4], [2, 4, 1]); // true
|
||||
```
