|  | # --description--
 | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | The [Farey sequence](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Farey sequence "wp: Farey sequence") <code>F<sub>n</sub></code> of order `n` is the sequence of completely reduced fractions between `0` and `1` which, when in lowest terms, have denominators less than or equal to `n`, arranged in order of increasing size. | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | The *Farey sequence* is sometimes incorrectly called a *Farey series*. | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | Each Farey sequence: | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | <ul> | ||
|  |   <li>starts with the value  0,  denoted by the fraction  $ \frac{0}{1} $</li> | ||
|  |   <li>ends with the value  1,  denoted by the fraction  $ \frac{1}{1}$.</li> | ||
|  | </ul> | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | The Farey sequences of orders `1` to `5` are: | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | <ul> | ||
|  |   <li style='list-style: none;'>${\bf\it{F}}_1 = \frac{0}{1}, \frac{1}{1}$</li> | ||
|  |   <li style='list-style: none;'>${\bf\it{F}}_2 = \frac{0}{1}, \frac{1}{2}, \frac{1}{1}$</li> | ||
|  |   <li style='list-style: none;'>${\bf\it{F}}_3 = \frac{0}{1}, \frac{1}{3}, \frac{1}{2}, \frac{2}{3}, \frac{1}{1}$</li> | ||
|  |   <li style='list-style: none;'>${\bf\it{F}}_4 = \frac{0}{1}, \frac{1}{4}, \frac{1}{3}, \frac{1}{2}, \frac{2}{3}, \frac{3}{4}, \frac{1}{1}$</li> | ||
|  |   <li style='list-style: none;'>${\bf\it{F}}_5 = \frac{0}{1}, \frac{1}{5}, \frac{1}{4}, \frac{1}{3}, \frac{2}{5}, \frac{1}{2}, \frac{3}{5}, \frac{2}{3}, \frac{3}{4}, \frac{4}{5}, \frac{1}{1}$</li> | ||
|  | </ul> | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | # --instructions--
 | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | Write a function that returns the Farey sequence of order `n`. The function should have one parameter that is `n`. It should return the sequence as an array. | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | # --hints--
 | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | `farey` should be a function. | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | ```js | ||
|  | assert(typeof farey === 'function'); | ||
|  | ``` | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | `farey(3)` should return an array | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | ```js | ||
|  | assert(Array.isArray(farey(3))); | ||
|  | ``` | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | `farey(3)` should return `["1/3","1/2","2/3"]` | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | ```js | ||
|  | assert.deepEqual(farey(3), ['1/3', '1/2', '2/3']); | ||
|  | ``` | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | `farey(4)` should return `["1/4","1/3","1/2","2/4","2/3","3/4"]` | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | ```js | ||
|  | assert.deepEqual(farey(4), ['1/4', '1/3', '1/2', '2/4', '2/3', '3/4']); | ||
|  | ``` | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | `farey(5)` should return `["1/5","1/4","1/3","2/5","1/2","2/4","3/5","2/3","3/4","4/5"]` | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | ```js | ||
|  | assert.deepEqual(farey(5), [ | ||
|  |   '1/5', | ||
|  |   '1/4', | ||
|  |   '1/3', | ||
|  |   '2/5', | ||
|  |   '1/2', | ||
|  |   '2/4', | ||
|  |   '3/5', | ||
|  |   '2/3', | ||
|  |   '3/4', | ||
|  |   '4/5' | ||
|  | ]); | ||
|  | ``` | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | # --seed--
 | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | ## --seed-contents--
 | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | ```js | ||
|  | function farey(n) { | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | } | ||
|  | ``` | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | # --solutions--
 | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | ```js | ||
|  | function farey(n){ | ||
|  |     let farSeq=[]; | ||
|  |     for(let den = 1; den <= n; den++){ | ||
|  |         for(let num = 1; num < den; num++){ | ||
|  |             farSeq.push({ | ||
|  |                 str:num+"/"+den, | ||
|  |                 val:num/den}); | ||
|  |         } | ||
|  |     } | ||
|  |     farSeq.sort(function(a,b){ | ||
|  |         return a.val-b.val; | ||
|  |     }); | ||
|  |     farSeq=farSeq.map(function(a){ | ||
|  |         return a.str; | ||
|  |     }); | ||
|  |     return farSeq; | ||
|  | } | ||
|  | ``` |
