original duplicate removal
// Remove duplicates that occur 3 or more times in an array // keeping unique values and those with less than 3 function removeMany(arr) { const newArr = Array.from(arr).sort() let count = 0; let result = [] newArr.forEach((value, index, ar) => { count += 1; // refactored afterwards from (ar[index + 1] !== value) if (ar.lastIndexOf(value) <= index && count <= 2) { for (var i = 0; i < arr.length; i++) { if (arr[i] === value) { result.push(arr[i]) } } count = 0 } else if (ar[index + 1] !== value) { count = 0; } }); // +1 is there anyway to return a result that mimicks the original order of `numbers`? return result; // [1, 2, 2, 3, 4, 4] } const numbers = [1, 2, 3, 2, 4, 4, 5, 5, 5, 5]; console.log(removeMany(numbers));
2-pass approach
