Javascript Solution to Two Sum Problem from LeetCode

Javascript Solution to Two Sum Problem from LeetCode

Problem:

Given an array of integers, return indices of the two numbers such that they add up to a specific target.
You may assume that each input would have exactly one solution, and you may not use the same element twice.
Example:
Given nums = [2, 7, 11, 15], target = 9,

Because nums[0] + nums[1] = 2 + 7 = 9,
return [0, 1].
Map the numbers to their indices as we iterate, so that we can look them back up in O(1) time complexity.
const func = function(nums, target) {
const indicies = {} // objects are hash table in javascript
for ( i = 0; i < nums.length; i++ ) {
const num = nums[i];
const val = indicies[num];
if (val == null) {
indicies[target - num] = num;
} else {
return [val, num];
}
}
}

func([1,3,2,6,5], 9);
Time Complexity: O(n) + O(1) = O(n)

Difference between .exec() and .execPopulate() in Mongoose?

Here I answer what is the difference between .exec() and .execPopulate() in Mongoose? .exec() is used with a query while .execPopulate() is used with a document Syntax for .exec() is as follows: Model.query() . populate ( 'field' ) . exec () // returns promise . then ( function ( document ) { console . log ( document ); }); Syntax for .execPopulate() is as follows: fetchedDocument . populate ( 'field' ) . execPopulate () // returns promise . then ( function ( document ) { console . log ( document ); }); When working with individual document use .execPopulate(), for model query use .exec(). Both returns a promise. One can do without .exec() or .execPopulate() but then has to pass a callback in populate.

Resolve: Uncaught TypeError: firebase.database is not a function

If you are getting the error: Uncaught TypeError: firebase.database is not a function Resolve it by including firebase-database.js in your html page as follows: <!-- The core Firebase JS SDK is always required and must be listed first --> <script defer src = "https://www.gstatic.com/firebasejs/6.2.4/firebase-app.js" ></script> <script defer src = "https://www.gstatic.com/firebasejs/3.1.0/firebase-database.js" ></script> That is it. Let me know if this was helpful.
