javascript reduce items values code example

Example 1: js reduce a array of straing

var authors = [{name: 'some author'},{name: 'another author'},{name: 'last author'}]
var authorString = authors.map(function(author){
    return author.name;
}).join(",");
console.log(authorString);

Example 2: reduce method

The reduce() method executes a reducer function (that you provide) on each element of the array, resulting in single output value.

The reducer function takes four arguments:
Accumulator (acc)
Current Value (cur)
Current Index (idx)
Source Array (src)

//syntax
arr.reduce(callback( accumulator, currentValue, [, index[, array]] )[, initialValue])
//example flatten an array

let flattened = [[0, 1], [2, 3], [4, 5]].reduce(
  ( accumulator, currentValue ) => accumulator.concat(currentValue),
  []
)
