Merging two arrays in a unique way in JavaScript



We are required to write a JavaScript function that takes in two arrays and merges the arrays taking elements alternatively from the arrays.

For example

If the two arrays are −

const arr1 = [4, 3, 2, 5, 6, 8, 9]; const arr2 = [2, 1, 6, 8, 9, 4, 3];

Then the output should be −

const output = [4, 2, 3, 1, 2, 6, 5, 8, 6, 9, 8, 4, 9, 3];

Therefore, let’s write the code for this function −

Example

The code for this will be −

const arr1 = [4, 3, 2, 5, 6, 8, 9]; const arr2 = [2, 1, 6, 8, 9, 4, 3]; const mergeAlernatively = (arr1, arr2) => {    const res = [];    for(let i = 0; i < arr1.length + arr2.length; i++){       if(i % 2 === 0){          res.push(arr1[i/2]);       }else{          res.push(arr2[(i-1)/2]);       };    };    return res; }; console.log(mergeAlernatively(arr1, arr2));

Output

The output in the console will be −

[    4, 2, 3, 1, 2, 6,    5, 8, 6, 9, 8, 4,    9, 3 ]
