#179 - Largest Number

Medium • View on LeetCode • View on GitHub

Problem Description

Given a list of non-negative integers nums, arrange them such that they form the largest number.

Note: The result may be very large, so you need to return a string instead of an integer.

Solution

/**
 * @param {number[]} nums
 * @return {string}
 */
var largestNumber = function(nums) {
  return nums
    .sort((a, b) => `${b}${a}` - `${a}${b}`)
    .join('')
    .replace(/^0+/, 0);
};
