JavaScript: Compute the sum of the two given integers

JavaScript Basic: Exercise-16 with Solution

Write a JavaScript program to compute the sum of the two given integers. If the two values are the same, then return triple their sum.

This JavaScript program calculates the sum of two given integers. If the two integers are the same, it returns triple their sum. It demonstrates conditional statements to determine whether the integers are equal and to perform the appropriate computation accordingly.

Sample Solution:

JavaScript Code:

// Define a function named sumTriple that takes two parameters, x and y
function sumTriple(x, y) {
  // Check if x is equal to y
  if (x == y) {
    // If true, return three times the sum of x and y
    return 3 * (x + y);
  } else {
    // If false, return the sum of x and y
    return (x + y);
  }
}

// Log the result of calling the sumTriple function with the arguments 10 and 20 to the console
console.log(sumTriple(10, 20));

// Log the result of calling the sumTriple function with the arguments 10 and 10 to the console
console.log(sumTriple(10, 10)); 

Output:

30
60

Flowchart:

ES6 Version:

// Using ES6 arrow function syntax to define the sumTriple function
const sumTriple = (x, y) => {
  // Check if x is equal to y
  if (x == y) {
    // If true, return three times the sum of x and y
    return 3 * (x + y);
  } else {
    // If false, return the sum of x and y
    return (x + y);
  }
};

// Log the result of calling the sumTriple function with the arguments 10 and 20 to the console
console.log(sumTriple(10, 20));

// Log the result of calling the sumTriple function with the arguments 10 and 10 to the console
console.log(sumTriple(10, 10));
