how to use the lt function from lodash in javascript

To use the lt function from lodash in JavaScript, you need to follow these steps:

1. Install lodash using npm or Yarn. You can do this by running one of the following commands in your terminal:

   index.tsx
   npm install lodash

   2 lines

   index.tsx
   yarn add lodash
   16 chars
   2 lines

2. Import the lt function from lodash at the top of your JavaScript file:

   index.tsx
   import { lt } from 'lodash';
   29 chars
   2 lines

   Alternatively, you can also use the require function to import lt:

   index.tsx
   const { lt } = require('lodash');
   34 chars
   2 lines

3. Use the lt function in your code to compare two values. The function returns true if the first value is less than the second value, and false otherwise:

   index.tsx
   const result = lt(2, 5); // returns true
   const result2 = lt(5, 2); // returns false

   You can also use the lt function to compare values in an array by using the _.sortBy function from lodash:

   index.tsx
   0 chars
   1 lines

const sortedArray = _.sortBy([2, 5, 1, 7], lt); console.log(sortedArray); // [1, 2, 5, 7]

index.tsx

This code sorts the array `[2, 5, 1, 7]` using the `lt` function as the sort expression. The resulting array `[1, 2, 5, 7]` is sorted in ascending order based on the values in the array.
