## Description
|
||||
<section id='description'>
|
||||
Comma quibbling is a task originally set by Eric Lippert in his <a href="https://blogs.msdn.com/b/ericlippert/archive/2009/04/15/comma-quibbling.aspx" target="_blank">blog</a>.

## Instructions
|
||||
<section id='instructions'>
|
||||
Write a function to generate a string output which is the concatenation of input words from a list/sequence where:
|
||||
<ol>
|
||||
<li>An input of no words produces the output string of just the two brace characters (<code>"{}"</code>)</li>
|
||||
<li>An input of just one word, e.g. <code>["ABC"]</code>, produces the output string of the word inside the two braces, e.g. <code>"{ABC}"</code></li>
|
||||
<li>An input of two words, e.g. <code>["ABC", "DEF"]</code>, produces the output string of the two words inside the two braces with the words separated by the string <code>" and "</code>, e.g. <code>"{ABC and DEF}"</code></li>
|
||||
<li>An input of three or more words, e.g. <code>["ABC", "DEF", "G", "H"]</code>, produces the output string of all but the last word separated by <code>", "</code> with the last word separated by <code>" and "</code> and all within braces; e.g. <code>"{ABC, DEF, G and H}"</code></li>
|
||||
</ol>
|
||||
Test your function with the following series of inputs showing your output here on this page:
|
||||
<ul>
|
||||
<li>[] # (No input words).</li>
|
||||
<li>["ABC"]</li>
|
||||
<li>["ABC", "DEF"]</li>
|
||||
<li>["ABC", "DEF", "G", "H"]</li>
|
||||
</ul>
|
||||
<strong>Note:</strong> Assume words are non-empty strings of uppercase characters for this task.

## Tests
|
||||
<section id='tests'>
|
||||
|
||||
```yml
|
||||
tests:
|
||||
- text: <code>quibble</code> should be a function.
|
||||
testString: assert(typeof quibble === 'function');
|
||||
- text: <code>quibble(["ABC"])</code> should return a string.
|
||||
testString: assert(typeof quibble(["ABC"]) === 'string');
|
||||
- text: <code>quibble([])</code> should return "{}".
|
||||
testString: assert.equal(quibble(testCases[0]), results[0]);
|
||||
- text: <code>quibble(["ABC"])</code> should return "{ABC}".
|
||||
testString: assert.equal(quibble(testCases[1]), results[1]);
|
||||
- text: <code>quibble(["ABC", "DEF"])</code> should return "{ABC and DEF}".
|
||||
testString: assert.equal(quibble(testCases[2]), results[2]);
|
||||
- text: <code>quibble(["ABC", "DEF", "G", "H"])</code> should return "{ABC,DEF,G and H}".
|
||||
testString: assert.equal(quibble(testCases[3]), results[3]);
|
||||
|
||||
```

## Challenge Seed
|
||||
<section id='challengeSeed'>
|
||||
|
||||
<div id='js-seed'>
|
||||
|
||||
```js
|
||||
function quibble(words) {
|
||||
|
||||
return true;
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
</div>
|

|
||||
### After Test
|
||||
<div id='js-teardown'>
|
||||
|
||||
```js
|
||||
const testCases = [[], ["ABC"], ["ABC", "DEF"], ["ABC", "DEF", "G", "H"]];
|
||||
const results = ["{}", "{ABC}", "{ABC and DEF}", "{ABC,DEF,G and H}"];
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
</div>
|
||||
|
||||
</section>
|

|
||||
## Solution
|
||||
<section id='solution'>
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
```js
|
||||
function quibble(words) {
|
||||
return "{" +
|
||||
words.slice(0, words.length - 1).join(",") +
|
||||
(words.length > 1 ? " and " : "") +
|
||||
(words[words.length - 1] || '') +
|
||||
"}";
|

}
