finding the largest number in an array javascript code example

Example 1: get highest value from array javascript

//For Values
var arr =[1,10,3]
var min = Math.min.apply(null, arr),
    max = Math.max.apply(null, arr);

//For Objects
var arr = [{a: 1},{a: 10},{a: 3}]
var values = arr.map(val => val.a);
var max = Math.max.apply(null, values);
console.log(max)

Example 2: javascript largest number in array

const max = arr => Math.max(...arr);

Example 3: get largest number in array javascript

const array1 = [1, 3, 2];

Math.max(...array1);
// expected output: 3

Example 4: find highest number in array javascript

function findHighestNumber(nums) {
	
	let inputs = nums.filter((val, i) => nums.indexOf(val) === i)
	let max = Math.max(...nums);
	let min = Math.min(...nums);
  
   return max + (-min);
}

console.log(difference([1, 7, 18, -1, -2, 9]));

Example 5: kth largest element in an array javascript

function nthlargest(arra,highest){
			var x = 0,
				y = 0,
				z = 0,
				temp = 0,
				tnum = arra.length, 
				flag = false, 
				result = false; 
   
			while(x < tnum){
				y = x + 1; 
				
				if(y < tnum){
					for(z = y; z < tnum; z++){
						
						if(arra[x] < arra[z]){
							temp = arra[z];
							arra[z] = arra[x];
							arra[x] = temp;
							flag = true; 
						}else{
							continue;
						}	
					}					
				}
				
				if(flag){
					flag = false;
				}else{
					x++; 
					if(x === highest){ 
                      
						result = true;
					}	
				}
				if(result){
					break;
				}
			}

			return (arra[(highest - 1)]);	
		}
		
console.log(nthlargest([ 43, 56, 23, 89, 88, 90, 99, 652], 4));

Example 6: javascript set value to the largest value in an array

//get min/max value of arrays
function getArrayMax(array){
   return Math.max.apply(null, array);
