My result comes out correct, but I get the 'exceeded execution timeout of 40 seconds' error.
I have done this:
export const shortenByWords = (s, n) => {
if(s.length > n) {
for(let i = n + 1; i > 0; i++) {
if(s === ' '){
return s.slice(0, i) + '...';
}
}
} else {
return s
}
}salmankhawar could you explain the condition of your for loop? It's unclear what you intend by let i = n + 1; i > 0; i++
P.S. For future tasks also include the task description and submission results. Maybe as screenshots.
Okay I copied the wrong one, here's the correct one.:
export const shortenByWords = (s, n) => {
if(s.length > n) {
for(let i = n; i < s.length; i++) {
if (s === ' ')
return s.slice(0, i) + '...';
}
} else {
return s
}
}Results Screenshot here:
Did some changes:
export const shortenByWords = (s, n) => {
if(s.length > n) {
for(let i = 0; i < s.length; i++){
if (s[i] === ' ' && i > n) return s.slice(0, i) + '...';
}
} else {
return s
}
}
salmankhawar consider a case where s.length > n is true but s[i] === ' ' && i > n is always for (for every i). In this case, your code returns undefined.
Coderslang_Master doesn't return close the loop after finding the first i which is ' ' and is more than n?
salmankhawar it would, but what if there's no space?
