expression to find highest number in array

[Liran Tabib]

Hi Soren

Let’s say tmpArr is your array, so you can loop through it and find the biggest one:

var biggestNum = tmpArr[0];
for(var i = 1;i < tmpArr.length;i++){
    if(biggestNum < tmpArr[i]){biggestNum = tmpArr[i]}
}

Cheers!

A bit simper one:

numArray = [1,10,5,3]

Math.max.apply(null, numArray)

Very nice!! could you explain a little bit why it does work?

I was stuck trying to do it like that:

numArray = [1,10,5,3]

Math.max(numArray);

You saved me
