How can I yield the same output in Javascript, given this Python example?
I want to loop over an array and check a value, if condition met, store it.
arr1 = [ 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 7, 7, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 13, 13, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 13, 13, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 15, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 14, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 2, 0, 0, 0] new_labels = [] previous = None for l in arr1: if l != previous: new_labels.append(l) previous = l # expected: [0, 7, 0, 13, 0, 13, 0, 15, 0, 14, 0, 2, 0]

This can be done more simply with Array#filter
.
let arr1 = [ 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 7, 7, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0,13, 13, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 13, 13, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0,0, 0, 0, 15, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 14, 0, 0,0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 2, 0,0, 0]; let res = arr1.filter((x, i) => x !== arr1[i - 1]); console.log(JSON.stringify(res));
