how to compare array positions javascript code example
Example 1: best way compare arrays javascript
// To compare arrays (or any other object):
// Simple Array Example:
const array1 = ['potato', 'banana', 'soup']
const array2 = ['potato', 'orange', 'soup']
array1 === array2;
// Returns false due to referential equality
JSON.stringify(array1) === JSON.stringify(array2);
// Returns true
// Another Example:
const deepArray1 = [{test: 'dummy'}, [['woo', 'ya'], 'weird']]
const deepArray2 = [{test: 'dummy'}, [['woo', 'ya'], 'weird']]
deepArray1 === deepArray2;
// Returns false due to referential equality
JSON.stringify(deepArray1) === JSON.stringify(deepArray2);
// Returns true
Example 2: compare arrays javascript
// For regular 1D array
const array1 = [1,2,3,4]
const array2 = [1,2,3,4]
array1.join() === array2.join()
// '1,2,3,4' === '1,2,3,4'
// For anything more complex
const array3 = [1,2,3,[1,2,3]]
const array4 = [1,2,3,[1,2,3]]
JSON.stringify(array3) === JSON.stringify(array4)
