--description--
Given a departure city, an arrival city, a flight duration in hours, and a direction of travel, return the number of jet lag hours the traveller is experiencing.
The given cities will be from the following list that includes their UTC offset:
| City | Offset |
|---|---|
"Los Angeles" |
-8 |
"New York" |
-5 |
"London" |
0 |
"Istanbul" |
+3 |
"Dubai" |
+4 |
"Hong Kong" |
+8 |
"Tokyo" |
+9 |
To calculate jet lag hours:
- Find the timezone difference in hours between the two cities.
- Determine the direction multiplier. If travelling
"east", it's 1.5, otherwise, it's 1.0. - Get the jet lag hours with the formula: timezone difference + (flight duration * 0.1) * direction multiplier
Return the jet lag hours rounded to one decimal place.
--hints--
getJetLagHours("Istanbul", "Hong Kong", 10, "east") should return 6.5.
assert.equal(getJetLagHours("Istanbul", "Hong Kong", 10, "east"), 6.5);
getJetLagHours("London", "New York", 8, "west") should return 5.8.
assert.equal(getJetLagHours("London", "New York", 8, "west"), 5.8);
getJetLagHours("Hong Kong", "Tokyo", 4, "east") should return 1.6.
assert.equal(getJetLagHours("Hong Kong", "Tokyo", 4, "east"), 1.6);
getJetLagHours("Dubai", "London", 7, "west") should return 4.7.
assert.equal(getJetLagHours("Dubai", "London", 7, "west"), 4.7);
getJetLagHours("Los Angeles", "Hong Kong", 15, "west") should return 17.5.
assert.equal(getJetLagHours("Los Angeles", "Hong Kong", 15, "west"), 17.5);
getJetLagHours("Tokyo", "Dubai", 9, "west") should return 5.9.
assert.equal(getJetLagHours("Tokyo", "Dubai", 9, "west"), 5.9);
getJetLagHours("New York", "Istanbul", 10, "east") should return 9.5.
assert.equal(getJetLagHours("New York", "Istanbul", 10, "east"), 9.5);
