Task: R51-T050 · 10 of 10
Repository: https://github.com/S-AI-Projects/javascript-algorithms
Assigned working branch: student/e26b07f0661
Goal
Work on src/algorithms/math/euclidean-distance/euclideanDistance.js. Prove that a regression test can detect a plausible one-line mistake in euclideanDistance. Use the fixture and invariant: Preserve the documented output type, shape, ordering and input-mutation behavior; compare fresh equivalent inputs under controlled external state. Fixture: Use the smallest valid input and one ordinary input for euclideanDistance from src/algorithms/math/euclidean-distance/euclideanDistance.js. Write the literal inputs and independently calculated expected outputs in the tests before editing the implementation. The check must name the source line establishing each precondition.
Steps
- Read src/algorithms/math/euclidean-distance/euclideanDistance.js, especially
euclideanDistancenear line 15. Record its public inputs, result, mutation behavior and any external dependencies before changing it. - In a temporary copy, alter one boundary comparison, accumulation or return condition relevant to the algorithm.
- Find a valid input for which the original and mutant differ; independently establish the correct output and reduce the input.
- Implement work/R51-T050/check.py as a focused runner that executes the new checks and propagates failures. Native check to incorporate: run the repository test script in non-watch mode after installing from its lockfile; for browser-only code use a browser test instead of plain Node. Record the actual command and nonzero test count.
- Create the checks specified below and run
python3 work/R51-T050/check.py. Save inputs, expected versus actual results and tool versions in work/R51-T050/; a check must exit non-zero when an assertion fails. - Commit the repository change on branch R51-T050; prepare a PR to the organisation fork explaining the result and linking the checks. Keep each task independently reviewable. Remove work/R51-T050/ from a later upstream branch.
Done when
☐ The checked behavior is tied to euclideanDistance in src/algorithms/math/euclidean-distance/euclideanDistance.js; every assertion has an explicit expected value.
☐ Use the smallest valid input and one ordinary input for euclideanDistance from src/algorithms/math/euclidean-distance/euclideanDistance.js. Write the literal inputs and independently calculated expected outputs in the tests before editing the implementation. The check must name the source line establishing each precondition.
☐ Existing supported behavior and the public interface are preserved unless a failing regression demonstrates and documents a defect.
☐ The original passes and the mutant fails the same named assertion for a semantic reason.
☐ The final implementation contains no mutation or test-only branch.

Item:
src/algorithms/math/euclidean-distance
Task type:
Mutation-resistant tests
Code change (goes into the PR):
Add a focused regression in the normal tests for src/algorithms/math/euclidean-distance/euclideanDistance.js and document the protected condition. Keep the deliberate mutant out of the final source.
Automated check:
python3 work/R51-T050/check.py
Prerequisites:
Node matching project CI, the project lockfile dependencies, and Python 3.
Upstream PR rules:
Keep the contribution scoped to the named item and follow the linked contribution instructions and repository CI. Submit coursework to the organisation fork first; keep work/ evidence out of any later upstream PR. Upstream acceptance is not a grading requirement.
