Finds the highest index at which a value should be inserted into an array in order to maintain its sort order, based on a provided iterator function.
|
|
|
|
- Loosely check if the array is sorted in descending order.
|
|
- Use `Array.prototype.map()` to apply the iterator function to all elements of the array.
|
|
- Use `Array.prototype.reverse()` and `Array.prototype.findIndex()` to find the appropriate last index where the element should be inserted, based on the provided iterator function.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
const sortedLastIndexBy = (arr, n, fn) => {
|
|
const isDescending = fn(arr[0]) > fn(arr[arr.length - 1]);
|
|
const val = fn(n);
|
|
const index = arr
|
|
.map(fn)
|
|
.reverse()
|
|
.findIndex(el => (isDescending ? val <= el : val >= el));
|
|
return index === -1 ? 0 : arr.length - index;
|
|
};
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
sortedLastIndexBy([{ x: 4 }, { x: 5 }], { x: 4 }, o => o.x); // 1
|
|
```
