Question

How to fill a large array by repeatedly copying the values from a small array in Node.js

Answer 1

// Initialize the small and large arrays
const smallArray = [1, 2, 3, 4]; 
const largeArray = new Array(32).fill(0);

const largeLen = largeArray.length;
const smallLen = smallArray.length;

// Fill largearray with elements from smallarray
for (let i = 0; i < largeLen; i++) {
    largeArray[i] = smallArray[i % smallLen];
}

// print 1
for (let i = 0; i < largeLen; i++) {
    process.stdout.write(largeArray[i] + " ");
}

console.log();

// print 2
console.log(largeArray.join(" "));
