We are required to write a JavaScript function that takes in an array of numbers like this −
const arr = [3, 6, 34, 12, 6, 8, 8, 5, 6, 8];
The function should return the difference between the sum of elements present at the odd index and the sum of elements present at even index
Example
Following is the code −
const arr = [3, 6, 34, 12, 6, 8, 8, 5, 6, 8];
const oddEvenDiff = arr => {
let diff = 0;
for(let i = 0; i < arr.length; i++){
if(i % 2 === 0){
diff += arr[i];
}else{
diff -= arr[i]
};
};
return Math.abs(diff);
};
console.log(oddEvenDiff(arr));Output
This will produce the following output in console −
