mapShare challenge
Posted on 2016-09-27
Hi,
I am working on below challenge
http://codingbat.com/prob/p148813
does the 'a' key corresponding value remains same in output map as in below case "aaa"?
mapShare({"b": "bbb", "c": "ccc", "a": "aaa"}) → {"b": "aaa", "a": "aaa"}
please advise

Map-1 > mapShare
prev | next | chance
Modify and return the given map as follows: if the key "a" has a value, set the key "b" to have that same value. In all cases remove the key "c", leaving the rest of the map unchanged.
mapShare({"b": "bbb", "c": "ccc", "a": "aaa"}) → {"b": "aaa", "a": "aaa"}
mapShare({"b": "xyz", "c": "ccc"}) → {"b": "xyz"}
mapShare({"d": "hi", "c": "meh", "a": "aaa"}) → {"d": "hi", "b": "aaa", "a": "aaa"}
does the 'a' key corresponding value remains same in output map as in below case "aaa"?
mapShare({"b": "bbb", "c": "ccc", "a": "aaa"}) → {"b": "aaa", "a": "aaa"}
please advise

Yes.
This is really a so basic challenge that you should be able to solve this on your own.

Think of the characteristics and methods for different types of maps -
Modify and return the given map as follows: if the key "a" has a value [contains], set the key [put] "b" to have that same value [get]. In all cases remove the key "c" [remove], leaving the rest of the map unchanged [need a map that preserves order].

Expected Runabove fails one test.
mapShare({"b": "bbb", "c": "ccc", "a": "aaa"}) → {"b": "aaa", "a": "aaa"} {"b": "aaa", "a": "aaa"} OK

Correct for more than half the tests

map.remove("c");

else{

above passes all tests. any improvements or alternate approaches?

You might consolidate some of the steps -
map.remove"c"; ==> in all cases
if (map.containsKey("a") {
map.put("b",map.get("a"));
map.put("a","");
}
map.remove"c"; ==> in all cases
if (map.containsKey("a") {
map.put("b",map.get("a"));
map.put("a","");
}

// map.put("a","");

You DON'T remove "c" in all cases.
If you would remove instead of comment out old code ànd indent your code well, you would have seen that your

Without comments, your code is -
if (map.containsKey("a")) {
map.put("b",map.get("a"));
map.remove("c");
}
return map;
You need to remove "c" whether "a" exists or not -
map.remove("c"); ==> note - if "c" doesn't exist, nothing will happen, if it does, the record is removed from the map
if (map.containsKey("a")) {
map.put("b",map.get("a"));
map.put("a",""); ==> this is still needed
}
if (map.containsKey("a")) {
map.put("b",map.get("a"));
map.remove("c");
}
return map;
