reduce in js code example

Example 1: javascript sum of array

const sum = arr => arr.reduce((a, b) => a + b, 0);

Example 2: how to flatten array with reduce in javascript

let flattened = [[0, 1], [2, 3], [4, 5]].reduce(
  function(accumulator, currentValue) {
    return accumulator.concat(currentValue)
  },
  []
)
// flattened is [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5]

Example 3: javascript reduce array of objects

var objs = [
  {name: "Peter", age: 35},
  {name: "John", age: 27},
  {name: "Jake", age: 28}
];

objs.reduce(function(accumulator, currentValue) {
  return accumulator + currentValue.age;
}, 0); // 35 + 27 + 28 = 90

Example 4: javascript reduce

var array = [36, 25, 6, 15];

array.reduce(function(accumulator, currentValue) {
  return accumulator + currentValue;
}, 0); // 36 + 25 + 6 + 15 = 82

Example 5: reduce javascript

const sum = array.reduce((accumulator, element) => {
  return accumulator + element;
}, 0);
// An example that will loop through an array adding
// each element to an accumulator and returning it
// The 0 at the end initializes accumulator to start at 0
// If array is [2, 4, 6], the returned value in sum
// will be 12 (0 + 2 + 4 + 6)

const product = array.reduce((accumulator, element) => {
  return accumulator * element;
}, 1);
// Multiply all elements in array and return the total
// Initialize accumulator to start at 1
// If array is [2, 4, 6], the returned value in product
// will be 48 (1 * 2 * 4 * 6)

Example 6: javascript reduce sum

let nums = [1, 2, 3];

nums.reduce((curr, next) => curr + next);
