我想比较两个数组。。。理想地、有效地。没有什么稀奇古怪的,如果它们是相同的,那就是真的,如果不是,那就是假的。毫不奇怪,比较运算符似乎不起作用。

var a1 = [1,2,3];
var a2 = [1,2,3];
console.log(a1==a2);    // Returns false
console.log(JSON.stringify(a1)==JSON.stringify(a2));    // Returns true

JSON对每个数组进行编码,但是否有一种更快或“更好”的方法来简单地比较数组而不必遍历每个值?


当前回答

我认为这是使用JSON字符串最简单的方法,在某些情况下可能是最好的解决方案:

JSON.stringify(a1) === JSON.stringify(a2);

这将对象a1和a2转换为字符串,以便对它们进行比较。在大多数情况下,顺序很重要,因为它可以使用上面答案之一中所示的排序算法对对象进行排序。

请注意,您不再比较对象,而是比较对象的字符串表示形式。这可能不是你想要的。

其他回答

与JSON.encode相同的行是使用join()。

function checkArrays( arrA, arrB ){

    //check if lengths are different
    if(arrA.length !== arrB.length) return false;


    //slice so we do not effect the original
    //sort makes sure they are in order
    //join makes it a string so we can do a string compare
    var cA = arrA.slice().sort().join(","); 
    var cB = arrB.slice().sort().join(",");

    return cA===cB;

}

var a = [1,2,3,4,5];
var b = [5,4,3,2,1];
var c = [1,2,3,4];
var d = [1,2,3,4,6];
var e = ["1","2","3","4","5"];  //will return true

console.log( checkArrays(a,b) );  //true
console.log( checkArrays(a,c) );  //false
console.log( checkArrays(a,d) );  //false
console.log( checkArrays(a,e) );  //true

唯一的问题是,如果您关心上次比较测试的类型。如果你关心类型,你将不得不循环。

function checkArrays( arrA, arrB ){

    //check if lengths are different
    if(arrA.length !== arrB.length) return false;

    //slice so we do not effect the orginal
    //sort makes sure they are in order
    var cA = arrA.slice().sort(); 
    var cB = arrB.slice().sort();

    for(var i=0;i<cA.length;i++){
         if(cA[i]!==cB[i]) return false;
    }

    return true;

}

var a = [1,2,3,4,5];
var b = [5,4,3,2,1];
var c = [1,2,3,4];
var d = [1,2,3,4,6];
var e = ["1","2","3","4","5"];

console.log( checkArrays(a,b) );  //true
console.log( checkArrays(a,c) );  //false
console.log( checkArrays(a,d) );  //false
console.log( checkArrays(a,e) );  //false

如果顺序应该保持不变,而不是循环,则不需要排序。

function checkArrays( arrA, arrB ){

    //check if lengths are different
    if(arrA.length !== arrB.length) return false;


    for(var i=0;i<arrA.length;i++){
         if(arrA[i]!==arrB[i]) return false;
    }

    return true;

}

var a = [1,2,3,4,5];
var b = [5,4,3,2,1];
var c = [1,2,3,4];
var d = [1,2,3,4,6];
var e = ["1","2","3","4","5"];

console.log( checkArrays(a,a) );  //true
console.log( checkArrays(a,b) );  //false
console.log( checkArrays(a,c) );  //false
console.log( checkArrays(a,d) );  //false
console.log( checkArrays(a,e) );  //false

以下是我的解决方案:

/**
 * Tests two data structures for equality
 * @param {object} x
 * @param {object} y
 * @returns {boolean}
 */
var equal = function(x, y) {
    if (typeof x !== typeof y) return false;
    if (x instanceof Array && y instanceof Array && x.length !== y.length) return false;
    if (typeof x === 'object') {
        for (var p in x) if (x.hasOwnProperty(p)) {
            if (typeof x[p] === 'function' && typeof y[p] === 'function') continue;
            if (x[p] instanceof Array && y[p] instanceof Array && x[p].length !== y[p].length) return false;
            if (typeof x[p] !== typeof y[p]) return false;
            if (typeof x[p] === 'object' && typeof y[p] === 'object') { if (!equal(x[p], y[p])) return false; } else
            if (x[p] !== y[p]) return false;
        }
    } else return x === y;
    return true;
};

适用于任何嵌套的数据结构,显然忽略了对象的方法。甚至不要考虑用这个方法扩展Object.prototype,当我尝试过一次时,jQuery坏了;)

对于大多数阵列,它仍然比大多数串行化解决方案更快。这可能是对象记录数组最快的比较方法。

最短的

对于数字数组,请尝试:

a1==''+a2

变量a1=[1,2,3];变量a2=[1,2,3];console.log(a1==“”+a2)

注意:当数组还包含字符串时,此方法将不起作用,例如a2=[1,“2,3”]。

我的解决方案比较对象,而不是数组。这将以与Tomáš相同的方式工作,因为数组是对象,但没有警告:

Object.prototype.compare_to = function(comparable){
    
    // Is the value being compared an object
    if(comparable instanceof Object){
        
        // Count the amount of properties in @comparable
        var count_of_comparable = 0;
        for(p in comparable) count_of_comparable++;
        
        // Loop through all the properties in @this
        for(property in this){
            
            // Decrements once for every property in @this
            count_of_comparable--;
            
            // Prevents an infinite loop
            if(property != "compare_to"){
                
                // Is the property in @comparable
                if(property in comparable){
                    
                    // Is the property also an Object
                    if(this[property] instanceof Object){
                        
                        // Compare the properties if yes
                        if(!(this[property].compare_to(comparable[property]))){
                            
                            // Return false if the Object properties don't match
                            return false;
                        }
                    // Are the values unequal
                    } else if(this[property] !== comparable[property]){
                        
                        // Return false if they are unequal
                        return false;
                    }
                } else {
                
                    // Return false if the property is not in the object being compared
                    return false;
                }
            }
        }
    } else {
        
        // Return false if the value is anything other than an object
        return false;
    }
    
    // Return true if their are as many properties in the comparable object as @this
    return count_of_comparable == 0;
}

这里有一个CoffeeScript版本,适合那些喜欢它的人:

Array.prototype.equals = (array) ->
  return false if not array # if the other array is a falsy value, return
  return false if @length isnt array.length # compare lengths - can save a lot of time

  for item, index in @
    if item instanceof Array and array[index] instanceof Array # Check if we have nested arrays
      if not item.equals(array[index]) # recurse into the nested arrays
        return false
    else if this[index] != array[index]
      return false # Warning - two different object instances will never be equal: {x:20} != {x:20}
  true
