I'd like to understand the best way to filter an array from all elements of another one. I tried with the filter function, but it doesn't come to me how to give it the values i want to remove.
Something Like:
var array = [1,2,3,4];
var anotherOne = [2,4];
var filteredArray = array.filter(myCallback);
// filteredArray should now be [1,3]
function myCallBack(){
return element ! filteredArray;
//which clearly can't work since we don't have the reference <,<
}
in case the filter function is not usefull, how would you implement this ?
Edit: i checked the possible duplicate question, and it could be useful for those who understand javascript easily. The answer checked as good makes things easy.
This question is related to

You can setup the filter function to iterate over the "filter array".
var arr = [1, 2, 3 ,4 ,5, 6, 7];
var filter = [4, 5, 6];
var filtered = arr.filter(
function(val) {
for (var i = 0; i < filter.length; i++) {
if (val == filter[i]) {
return false;
}
}
return true;
}
);
Below is an example
let firstArray=[1,2,3,4,5];_x000D_
let secondArray=[2,3]; _x000D_
let filteredArray = firstArray.filter((a) => secondArray.indexOf(a)<0);_x000D_
console.log(filteredArray); //above line gives [1,4,5]
_x000D_
A more flexible filtering array from another array which contain object properties
function filterFn(array, diffArray, prop, propDiff) {_x000D_
diffArray = !propDiff ? diffArray : diffArray.map(d => d[propDiff])_x000D_
this.fn = f => diffArray.indexOf(f) === -1_x000D_
if (prop) {_x000D_
return array.map(r => r[prop]).filter(this.fn)_x000D_
} else {_x000D_
return array.filter(this.fn)_x000D_
}_x000D_
}_x000D_
_x000D_
//You can use it like this;_x000D_
_x000D_
var arr = [];_x000D_
_x000D_
for (var i = 0; i < 10; i++) {_x000D_
var obj = {}_x000D_
obj.index = i_x000D_
obj.value = Math.pow(2, i)_x000D_

There are many answers for your question, but I don't see anyone using lambda expresion:
var array = [1,2,3,4];
var anotherOne = [2,4];
var filteredArray = array.filter(x => anotherOne.indexOf(x) < 0);
The best description to filter
function is https://developer.mozilla.org/pl/docs/Web/JavaScript/Referencje/Obiekty/Array/filter
You should simply condition function:
function conditionFun(element, index, array) {
return element >= 10;
}
filtered = [12, 5, 8, 130, 44].filter(conditionFun);
And you can't access the variable value before it is assigned
The solution of Jack Giffin is great but doesn't work for arrays with numbers bigger than 2^32. Below is a refactored, fast version to filter an array based on Jack's solution but it works for 64-bit arrays.
const Math_clz32 = Math.clz32 || ((log, LN2) => x => 31 - log(x >>> 0) / LN2 | 0)(Math.log, Math.LN2);
const filterArrayByAnotherArray = (searchArray, filterArray) => {
searchArray.sort((a,b) => a > b);
filterArray.sort((a,b) => a > b);
let searchArrayLen = searchArray.length, filterArrayLen = filterArray.length;
let progressiveLinearComplexity = ((searchArrayLen<<1) + filterArrayLen)>>>0
let binarySearchComplexity = (searchArrayLen * (32-Math_clz32(filterArrayLen-1)))>>>0;
let i = 0;
if (progressiveLinearComplexity < binarySearchComplexity) {
return searchArray.filter(currentValue => {
while (filterArray[i] < currentValue) i=i+1|0;
return filterArray[i] !== currentValue;
});
}
else return searchArray.filter(e => binarySearch(filterArray, e) === null);
}
const binarySearch = (sortedArray, elToFind) => {
let lowIndex = 0;
let highIndex = sortedArray.length - 1;
while (lowIndex <= highIndex) {
let midIndex = Math.floor((lowIndex + highIndex) / 2);
if (sortedArray[midIndex] == elToFind) return midIndex;
else if (sortedArray[midIndex] < elToFind) lowIndex = midIndex + 1;
else highIndex = midIndex - 1;
} return null;
}
I would do as follows;
var arr1 = [1,2,3,4],
arr2 = [2,4],
res = arr1.filter(item => !arr2.includes(item));
console.log(res);
_x000D_
The OA can also be implemented in ES6 as follows
ES6:
const filtered = [1, 2, 3, 4].filter(e => {
return this.indexOf(e) < 0;
},[2, 4]);
You can use the filter and then for the filter function use a reduction of the filtering array which checks and returns true when it finds a match then invert on return (!). The filter function is called once per element in the array. You are not doing a comparison of any of the elements in the function in your post.
var a1 = [1, 2, 3, 4],_x000D_
a2 = [2, 3];_x000D_
_x000D_
var filtered = a1.filter(function(x) {_x000D_
return !a2.reduce(function(y, z) {_x000D_
return x == y || x == z || y == true;_x000D_
})_x000D_
});_x000D_
_x000D_
document.write(filtered);
_x000D_
The code below is the simplest way to filter an array with respect to another array. Both arrays can have objects inside them instead of values.
let array1 = [1, 3, 47, 1, 6, 7];
let array2 = [3, 6];
let filteredArray1 = array1.filter(el => array2.includes(el));
console.log(filteredArray1);
_x000D_
Output: [3, 6]
The following examples use new Set()
to create a filtered array that has only unique elements:
Array with primitive data types: string, number, boolean, null, undefined, symbol:
const a = [1, 2, 3, 4];
const b = [3, 4, 5];
const c = Array.from(new Set(a.concat(b)));
Array with objects as items:
const a = [{id:1}, {id: 2}, {id: 3}, {id: 4}];
const b = [{id: 3}, {id: 4}, {id: 5}];
const stringifyObject = o => JSON.stringify(o);
const parseString = s => JSON.parse(s);
const c = Array.from(new Set(a.concat(b).map(stringifyObject)), parseString);
var array = [1,2,3,4];
var anotherOne = [2,4];
var filteredArray = array.filter(myCallBack);
function myCallBack(el){
return anotherOne.indexOf(el) < 0;
}
In the callback, you check if each value of array
is in anotherOne
https://jsfiddle.net/0tsyc1sx/
If you are using lodash.js
, use _.difference
filteredArray = _.difference(array, anotherOne);
If you have an array of objects :
var array = [{id :1, name :"test1"},{id :2, name :"test2"},{id :3, name :"test3"},{id :4, name :"test4"}];
var anotherOne = [{id :2, name :"test2"}, {id :4, name :"test4"}];
var filteredArray = array.filter(function(array_el){
return anotherOne.filter(function(anotherOne_el){
return anotherOne_el.id == array_el.id;
}).length == 0
});
If you need to compare an array of objects, this works in all cases:
let arr = [{ id: 1, title: "title1" },{ id: 2, title: "title2" }]
let brr = [{ id: 2, title: "title2" },{ id: 3, title: "title3" }]
const res = arr.filter(f => brr.some(item => item.id === f.id));
console.log(res);
You can write a generic filterByIndex() function and make use of type inference in TS to save the hassle with the callback function:
let's say you have your array [1,2,3,4] that you want to filter() with the indices specified in the [2,4] array.
var filtered = [1,2,3,4,].filter(byIndex(element => element, [2,4]))
the byIndex function expects the element function and an array and looks like this:
byIndex = (getter: (e:number) => number, arr: number[]) => (x: number) => {
var i = getter(x);
return arr.indexOf(i);
}
result is then
filtered = [1,3]
All the above solutions "work", but are less than optimal for performance and are all approach the problem in the same way which is linearly searching all entries at each point using Array.prototype.indexOf or Array.prototype.includes. A far faster solution (far faster even than a binary search for most cases) would be to sort the arrays and skip ahead as you go along as seen below. However, one downside is that this requires all entries in the array to be numbers or strings. Also however, binary search may in some rare cases be faster than the progressive linear search. These cases arise from the fact that my progressive linear search has a complexity of O(2n1+n2) (only O(n1+n2) in the faster C/C++ version) (where n1 is the searched array and n2 is the filter array), whereas the binary search has a complexity of O(n1ceil(log2n2)) (ceil = round up -- to the ceiling), and, lastly, the indexOf search has a highly variable complexity between O(n1) and O(n1n2), averaging out to O(n1ceil(n2÷2)). Thus, indexOf will only be the fastest, on average, in the cases of (n1,n2) equaling {1,2}, {1,3}, or {x,1|x?N}. However, this is still not a perfect representation of modern hardware. IndexOf is natively optimized to the fullest extent imaginable in most modern browsers, making it very subject to the laws of branch prediction. Thus, if we make the same assumption on indexOf as we do with progressive linear and binary search -- that the array is presorted -- then, according to the stats listed in the link, we can expect roughly a 6x speed up for IndexOf, shifting its complexity to between O(n1÷6) and O(n1n2), averaging out to O(n1ceil(n27÷12)). Finally, take note that the below solution will never work with objects because objects in JavaScript cannot be compared by pointers in JavaScript.
function sortAnyArray(a,b) { return a>b ? 1 : (a===b ? 0 : -1); }
function sortIntArray(a,b) { return (a|0) - (b|0) |0; }
function fastFilter(array, handle) {
var out=[], value=0;
for (var i=0, len=array.length|0; i < len; i=i+1|0)

out.push( value );
return out;
}

};
})(Math.log, Math.LN2);

To prove the difference in speed, let us examine some JSPerfs. For filtering an array of 16 elements, binary search is roughly 17% faster than indexOf while filterArrayByAnotherArray is roughly 93% faster than indexOf. For filtering an array of 256 elements, binary search is roughly 291% faster than indexOf while filterArrayByAnotherArray is roughly 353% faster than indexOf. For filtering an array of 4096 elements, binary search is roughly 2655% faster than indexOf while filterArrayByAnotherArray is roughly 4627% faster than indexOf.
The previous section provided code to take array A and array B, and remove all elements from A that exist in B:
filterArrayByAnotherArray(
[1,3,5],
[2,3,4]
);
// yields [1, 5]
This next section will provide code for reverse-filtering, where we remove all elements from A that DO NOT exist in B. This process is functionally equivalent to only retaining the elements common to both A and B, like an AND gate:
reverseFilterArrayByAnotherArray(
[1,3,5],
[2,3,4]
);
// yields [3]
Here is the code for reverse filtering:
function sortAnyArray(a,b) { return a>b ? 1 : (a===b ? 0 : -1); }
function sortIntArray(a,b) { return (a|0) - (b|0) |0; }
function fastFilter(array, handle) {
var out=[], value=0;
for (var i=0, len=array.length|0; i < len; i=i+1|0)
if (handle(value = array[i]))
out.push( value );
return out;
}
const Math_clz32 = Math.clz32 || (function(log, LN2){
return function(x) {
return 31 - log(x >>> 0) / LN2 | 0; // the "| 0" acts like math.floor
};
})(Math.log, Math.LN2);
