Recursion to Sum Nested Array in JavaScript
We are required to write a JavaScript function that takes in a nested array of Numbers and returns the sum of all the numbers present in the array.
Let’s say the following is our nested array −
const arr = [2, 5, 7, [ 4, 5, 4, 7, [ 5, 7, 5 ], 5 ], 2];
Example
Following is the code −
const arr = [2, 5, 7, [ 4, 5, 4, 7, [ 5, 7, 5 ], 5 ], 2]; const calculateSum = (arr, query) => { let count = 0; for(let i = 0; i < arr.length; i++){ if(Array.isArray(arr[i])){ count += calculateSum(arr[i], query); continue; }; count += arr[i]; }; return count; }; console.log(calculateSum(arr));
Output
This will produce the following output in console −
