JavaScript: Check whether two given integers are similar or not

JavaScript Basic: Exercise-88 with Solution

Write a JavaScript program that takes two integers and a divisor. If the given divisor divides both integers and does not divide either, two specified integers are similar. Check whether two integers are similar or not.

Visual Presentation:

Sample Solution:

JavaScript Code:

// Function to check if two numbers are both divisible or not divisible by a given divisor
function checking_numbers(x, y, divisor) {
  // Check if both x and y are divisible by the divisor or not divisible by the divisor
  if (x % divisor === 0 && y % divisor === 0 || x % divisor !== 0 && y % divisor !== 0) {
    return true; // Return true if the condition is satisfied
  }
  return false; // Return false if the condition is not satisfied
}

// Example usage
console.log(checking_numbers(10, 25, 5)); // true
console.log(checking_numbers(10, 20, 5)); // true
console.log(checking_numbers(10, 20, 4)); // false 

Output:

true
true
false

ES6 Version:

// Function to check if both numbers are divisible by the given divisor or not
const checking_numbers = (x, y, divisor) => {
  // Check if both x and y are divisible by the divisor or not, or neither is divisible
  if ((x % divisor === 0 && y % divisor === 0) || (x % divisor !== 0 && y % divisor !== 0)) {
    return true;
  }	
  // If not both or neither, return false
  return false;
};

// Example usage
console.log(checking_numbers(10, 25, 5));  // true
console.log(checking_numbers(10, 20, 5));  // true
console.log(checking_numbers(10, 20, 4));  // false
