javascript array reduce number of elements code example

Example 1: javascript sum array values

function getArraySum(a){
    var total=0;
    for(var i in a) { 
        total += a[i];
    }
    return total;
}

var payChecks = [123,155,134, 205, 105]; 
var weeklyPay= getArraySum(payChecks); //sums up to 722

Example 2: reduce javascript

//note idx and sourceArray are optional
const sum = array.reduce((accumulator, element[, idx[, sourceArray]]) => {
	//arbitrary example of why idx might be needed
	return accumulator + idx * 2 + element 
}, 0);
