Daily Challenge #JS-101: Find the Maximum Depth of a Nested Array (In C#)
/*
Find the Maximum Depth of a Nested Array
Develop a function to find the maximum depth of nested arrays.
The function will receive an array as its input,
which can contain other arrays to any depth,
and it should return the maximum depth integer.
Example:
Input: [1, [2, [3, [4]], 5], 6]
Output: 4
*/
void Main()
{
object[] array = new object[] { 1, new object[] { -1 } , new object[] { 2, new object[] { 3, new object[] { 4 } }, 5 }, 6};
CountLevel(array).Dump();
}
int CountLevel(object[] array) =>
array.OfType<object[]>()
.Aggregate(1, (deepest, item) => Math.Max(deepest, CountLevel(item) + 1));
int CountLevel_ver1(object[] array)
{
int deepest = 1;
foreach(object[] item in array.Where(i => i is object[]))
deepest = Math.Max(deepest, CountLevel_ver1(item) + 1);
return deepest;
}
