Finds all unique values of an array, based on a provided comparator function, starting from the right.
|
|
|
|
- Use `Array.prototype.reduceRight()` and `Array.prototype.some()` to create an array containing only the last unique occurrence of each value, based on the comparator function, `fn`.
|
|
- The comparator function takes two arguments: the values of the two elements being compared.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
const uniqueElementsByRight = (arr, fn) =>
|
|
arr.reduceRight((acc, v) => {
|
|
if (!acc.some(x => fn(v, x))) acc.push(v);
|
|
return acc;
|
|
}, []);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
uniqueElementsByRight(
|
|
[
|
|
{ id: 0, value: 'a' },
|
|
{ id: 1, value: 'b' },
|
|
{ id: 2, value: 'c' },
|
|
{ id: 1, value: 'd' },
|
|
{ id: 0, value: 'e' }
|
|
],
|
|
(a, b) => a.id == b.id
|
|
); // [ { id: 0, value: 'e' }, { id: 1, value: 'd' }, { id: 2, value: 'c' } ]
|
|
```
