react native reduce array code example

Example 1: reduce javascript

/* this is our initial value i.e. the starting point*/
const initialValue = 0;

/* numbers array */
const numbers = [5, 10, 15];

/* reducer method that takes in the accumulator and next item */
const reducer = (accumulator, item) => {
  return accumulator + item;
};

/* we give the reduce method our reducer function
  and our initial value */
const total = numbers.reduce(reducer, initialValue)

Example 2: reduce javascript

function flattenArray(data) {
  // our initial value this time is a blank array
  const initialValue = [];

  // call reduce on our data
  return data.reduce((total, value) => {
    // if the value is an array then recursively call reduce
    // if the value is not an array then just concat our value
    return total.concat(Array.isArray(value) ? flattenArray(value) : value);
  }, initialValue);
}
