Dutch national flag problem and solution in Javascript Problem statement:   The Dutch national flag (DNF) problem is one of the most popular programming problems proposed by Edsger Dijkstra. The flag of the Netherlands consists of three colors: white, red, and blue. The task is to randomly arrange balls of white, red, and blue such that balls of the same color are placed together. Now, let's consider an array with 3 distinct values say 0, 1 and 2. We won't be using any sort method and we need to sort this array in 0(n). Input Array :  let   arr  = [ 0 ,  2 ,  1 ,  0 ,  1 ,  2 ,  0 ,  2 ]; Expected Output: [ 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2 ] Solution Approach : When we see expected output, we can clearly see that sorted array is divided into 3 sections having values 0 , 1 and 2. So, let's divide the array in 3 sections: a) from 0th index to left boundary b) from left boundary to right boundary c) from right boundary to last index. Now we will create 2 pointers : left (starting from 0

Problem: Disemvowel Trolls

Description: Trolls are attacking your comment section!

A common way to deal with this situation is to remove all of the vowels from the trolls' comments, neutralizing the threat.

Your task is to write a function that takes a string and return a new string with all vowels removed.

For example, the string "This website is for losers LOL!" would become "Ths wbst s fr lsrs LL!".

 

Solution 1#

function disemvowel(str) {

  var str = str.replace(/a/gi,'').replace(/e/gi,'').replace(/i/gi,'').replace(/o/gi,'').replace(/u/gi,'');

  return str;

}

Solution 2# (slightly more concise)

function disemvowel(str) {

  return str.replace(/[aeiou]/gi, '');

}
