Minimum:

function min(a, b){
  if (a <= b){
    return a;
  }
  else {
    return b;
  }
}

Recursion:

function isEven(num){
  if(num == 0){
    return true;
  }
  else if (num == 1){
    return false;
  }
  else if (num < 0){
  	return isEven(-num);
  }
  else {
    return isEven(num - 2);
  }
}

Bean Counting:

function countBs(str){
  let c = 0;
  for(let i = 0; i < str.length; i++){
    if (str[i] == "b" || str[i] == "B"){
      c++;
    }
  }
  return c;
}

function countChar(str, char){
  let c = 0;
  for(let i = 0; i < str.length; i++){
    if (str[i] == char.toLowerCase() || 
        str[i] == char.toUpperCase()){
      c++;
    }
  }
  return c;
}

Function MINIMUM:

document.write("<br><br>"+ "functions max/min" + "<br><br>");

    function min(a,b) {
      if (a > b)
      { return b; }
      else
      {return a;}
    }

    document.write( min(5,8) )

FUNCTION IsEven

function IsEven(a) {
  if (a==0)
    {return true;}
  else {
      if (a==1)
        {return false; }
      else
        {return IsEven(a-2);}
        }
}

document.write( IsEven(50) )

IsEven(-10) returns an error because it keeps running since it’s allready lower than 0. We can fix this by multiplying a by -1 (if a is lower than 0) so we get a positive number again.

FUNCTION countchar

function countBs(a) {
      let countb = 0;
      for (i=0; i < a.length ;i++) {
          if (a[i]=='B')
          {countb++;}
      }
      return countb;
    }

  document.write('Nr of B: ' + countBs('qkjfdmsBdsfqdqfBdd') + "<br><br>" )

  function countChar(a,b) {
    let count = 0;
    for (i=0; i < a.length ;i++) {
        if (a[i]== b)
        {count++;}
    }
    return count;
  }

  document.write('Nr of char : ' + countChar('ThisisATest','i') + "<br><br>" )

                result += 1;
        }
        return result;
    }

    if(a<b){
        return a;

         return b;
    }
}

2. isEven()

function isEven(a){
    //check if input is a number
    if(!(typeof a ==‘number’){
        return ‘Not a Number’;
    }

    if (a==0) return true;
    else if (a==1) return false;

1st Exercise;

function min(a,b) {

		if ( a < b) return a;
        else return b;

}

2nd Exercise;

let isEven= n => {
    //zero is even
    if (n === 0) return true; 
    //one is even
    else if (n === 1) return false;
    // Negative numbers and non whole numbers returns as null so it has no value but null
   else if ( n < 0 ) return null;
    // for N that as a positive number evenness is N -2

3rd question

I couldn’t understand the question but from what I understand trough comments is something I did do it too.

1-
function findmin(a,b){
let numb1= a;
let numb2= b;
if (numb1 < numb2){
return numb1;
}else{
return numb2;
}
}
test1 = findmin (1,4);
console.log(test1);
test2 = findmin (44,41);
console.log(test2);
test3 = findmin (4774,741);
console.log(test3);

2-
function isEven(a){
if(a < 0){
a = a*(-1)
}
if(a===0){
return true;
}
else if(a===1){
return false;
}
else{
return isEven(a-2);
}
}
test1 = isEven(50);
console.log(test1);
test2 = isEven(75);
console.log(test2);
test3 = isEven(-1);
console.log(test3);
test4 = isEven(-12);
console.log(test4);

3- function countBs(a){
counter = a.length;
var bcount = 0;
for(let i=0;i<counter;i++){
if(a[i]==‘B’){
bcount++
}
}
console.log(bcount);
}
countBs(‘balaalalaBsbsBBBss’);
function countChar(a,b){

var lettercount = 0;

MinNumber:
MinNumber(3,2);
function MinNumber(num1,num2) {
if (num1<num2){console.log(num1);}
else console.log(num2);};

Recursion

N=75;
isEven(N);

function isEven(num) {
if (num==0){
    console.log("Even");
    return;}
  else if (num==1) {
    console.log("Odd");
    return;}
  else isEven(num=num-2);
  }

-1 cause stack overflow-- possible fix would be to check for numbers <0 before calling function.

Bean Counting

Part 1:
stringToCheck=“BubBles”;
console.log(checkString(stringToCheck));

  function checkString(word) {
    let totalNumOfLetter=0;
    for (var count=0;count<word.length;count++)
    if (word[count]=="B") {totalNumOfLetter++;}
    return totalNumOfLetter;
    };

Part 2:
stringToCheck=“BubBles”;
letterToCheck=“u”;

  console.log(checkString(stringToCheck,letterToCheck));
  function checkString(word,letter) {
    let totalNumOfLetter=0;
    for (var count=0;count<word.length;count++)
    if (word[count]==letterToCheck) {totalNumOfLetter++;}
    return totalNumOfLetter;

Recursion

I got a little fancy with it, where after checking the required numbers, it prompts you to enter your own number to test.

        let isEven = function(n) {
        if (n == 0) {
          return ("even");
        }else if (n == 1) {
          return ("odd");
        }else if (n < 0) {
          return isEven(-n);
        }else {
          return isEven(n-2);
        }
    }
    document.write("50 is an" + " " + isEven(50) + " " + "number" + "<br>");

Calculate the minimum from two expressions:
I returned one value by multiplying two values.
I returned another value by useing the power fuction.
I then calulated the smallest of the two values.
For the value inputs I used prompts.

Result:
Multiply sum = 1476
Power sum = 5764801
The minimum is 1476

var m1 = Number(prompt(“Give first multiply number”)); // 123
var m2 = Number(prompt(“Give second multiply number”)); // 12
var p1 = Number(prompt(“Give base number”)); // 7
var p2 = Number(prompt(“Give power number”)); // 8

function multiply(a,b) {
var c = a*b;
return c;
}

function power(c,d) {
var e = Math.pow(c,d);
return e;
}

var x = multiply(m1,m2);
var y = power(p1,p2);

function min(x,y) {
if(x < y) {
return x;
}
else{
return y;
}
}

document.write("Multiply sum = "+ multiply(m1,m2) + “
”);
document.write("Power sum = " + power(p1,p2) + “
