Filter dynamic Array Values

Question

I need help with coding.

I need to filter 14 values from an array. The values are created dynamically. I want to compare values to 20.0 I only need two of the values to be higher than 20.0

I put my hopes into filter method as Switch did not work. Thank you in advance!

if (!Array.prototype.filter) {
    Array.prototype.filter = function (fun /*, thisp*/) {
        var len = this.length;

        if (typeof fun != "function")
            throw new TypeError();

        var res = new Array();
        var thisp = arguments[1];

        for (var i = 0; i < len; i++) {
            if (i in this) {
                var val = this[i]; // in case fun mutates this
                if (fun.call(thisp, val, i, this))
                    res.push(val);
            }
        }
        return res;
    };
}

function isBigEnough(element, index, array) {
    return (filtered >= 20.0);
}

var filtered = [
    (vol1l * 100).toFixed(1),
    (vol2l * 100).toFixed(1),
    (vol3l * 100).toFixed(1),
    (vol4l * 100).toFixed(1),
    (vol5l * 100).toFixed(1),
    (vol6l * 100).toFixed(1),
    (vol7l * 100).toFixed(1),
    (vol1r * 100).toFixed(1),
    (vol2r * 100).toFixed(1),
    (vol3r * 100).toFixed(1),
    (vol4r * 100).toFixed(1),
    (vol5r * 100).toFixed(1),
    (vol6r * 100).toFixed(1),
    (vol7r * 100).toFixed(1)
].filter(isBigEnough);

if (filtered) {
    testText.textContent = "JA! Gerät"
} else {
    testText.textContent = "NO! Nein"
}

Not sure I understood what you want to archieve but I guess you want to check element => 20.0 and not (the array) filtered... — Werner

Why not just map the variables, get the adjusted values and filter it.

const
    factor100 = v => 100 * v,
    isBigEnough = v => v >= 20;

var filtered = [vol1l, vol2l, vol3l, vol4l, vol5l, vol6l, vol7l, vol1r, vol2r, vol3r, vol4r, vol5r, vol6r, vol7r]
        .map(factor100)
        .filter(isBigEnough);

This proposal works with built in prototypes of Array.

I suggest to use a better iterable data structure for using an array directly.

this will iterate the array twice and doesn't reference isBigEnough which would be more reusable

@Roman, right, but i think it is more the problem to rewriting filter.

The function isBigEnough try to check filtered with 20.0. This will allways return false because filtered is undefined

Code

function isBigEnough(element, index, array) {
    return (element >= 20.0);
}

Example

function isBigEnough(element, index, array) {
    return (element >= 20.0);
}

var filtered = [1.0.toFixed(1), 2.0.toFixed(1), 20.0.toFixed(1), 21.0.toFixed(1)].filter(isBigEnough)

console.log(filtered)

More Reusable Ways

Call `isBigEnough` in a other Funtion

var values = [1, 2, 10, 11, 20, 22].filter(biggerThan10)
var moreValues = values.filter(biggerThan20)

console.log(values, moreValues)

function isBigEnough(value, compareValue) {
    return (value >= compareValue);
}

function biggerThan10(value) {
    return isBigEnough(value, 10)
}

function biggerThan20(value) {
    return isBigEnough(value, 20)
}

Use Currying

var biggerThan10 = isBigEnough(10)
var biggerThan20 = isBigEnough(20)
var values = [1, 2, 10, 11, 20, 22].filter(biggerThan10)
var moreValues = values.filter(biggerThan20)

console.log(values, moreValues)

function isBigEnough(value, compareValue) {
    return (value >= compareValue);
}

function isBigEnough(compareValue) {
    return function(value) {
        return compareValue <= value
    }
}
