Roland Hummel 86d333ee94 feat: Test running overhaul, switch to Prettier & reformat everything (#1407)
* chore: Switch to Node 20 + Vitest

* chore: migrate to vitest mock functions

* chore: code style (switch to prettier)

* test: re-enable long-running test

Seems the switch to Node 20 and Vitest has vastly improved the code's and / or the test's runtime!

see #1193

* chore: code style

* chore: fix failing tests

* Updated Documentation in README.md

* Update contribution guidelines to state usage of Prettier

* fix: set prettier printWidth back to 80

* chore: apply updated code style automatically

* fix: set prettier line endings to lf again

* chore: apply updated code style automatically

/**
* Sliding Window:
* This pattern involve creating a window which can either be
* an array or numbers from one position to another.
*
* Depending on a certain condition, the window either increases
* or closes (and a new window is created).
*
* Very useful for keeping track of a subset of data in an
* array/string etc.
*
* Time Complexity: Best - O(n);
*
* Examples:
* maxSubarraySum([1,2,5,2,8,1,5],2) // returns 10
* maxSubarraySum([1,2,5,2,8,1,5],15) // returns null
* maxSubarraySum([5,2,6,9],3) // returns 17
* @param {[Int]} arr - An array of integers on which we will perform the test.
* @param {Int} num - An integer that displays the size of the window you want to check.
* @returns {Int / Null} - Returns a total of N consecutive numbers or null
*/
function slidingWindow(arr, num) {
// Edge Case:
// If the length of the array shorter than the window size (num) return null.
if (arr.length < num) return null
// The highest amount of consecutive numbers
let maxSum = 0
// Temp amount of consecutive numbers - For comparative purposes
let tempSum = 0
// loop over the array {num} times and save their total amount in {maxSum}
for (let i = 0; i < num; i++) {
maxSum += arr[i]
}
// initialize {tempSum} to {maxSum}.
tempSum = maxSum
// loop over the array n times
for (let i = num; i < arr.length; i++) {
// Add the next num in the array and remove the first one
tempSum = tempSum - arr[i - num] + arr[i]
// save the largest number between {maxNum} and {tempNum} in maxSum.
maxSum = Math.max(maxSum, tempSum)
}
return maxSum
