Returns the minimum value of an array, after mapping each element to a value using the provided function.
|
|
|
|
Use `Array.prototype.map()` to map each element to the value returned by `fn`, `Math.min()` to get the minimum value.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
const minBy = (arr, fn) => Math.min(...arr.map(typeof fn === 'function' ? fn : val => val[fn]));
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
minBy([{ n: 4 }, { n: 2 }, { n: 8 }, { n: 6 }], o => o.n); // 2
|
|
minBy([{ n: 4 }, { n: 2 }, { n: 8 }, { n: 6 }], 'n'); // 2
|
|
