JS - Get top 5 max elements from array


How can I get top 5 max elements from array of ints with the standard library of es2015? Thanks for help.


Solution

  • A solution in ES6 :

    values = [1,65,8,98,689,12,33,2,3,789];
    var topValues = values.sort((a,b) => b-a).slice(0,5);
    console.log(topValues); // [789,689,98,65,33]
