Let's says we have an array `[1, 3, 5]` named `arr` and we want to sum up all the numbers.
2019-12-07 17:11:14 -07:00
2019-12-07 17:11:14 -07:00
We can use the reduce function as follows:
2019-12-07 17:11:14 -07:00
2019-12-07 17:11:14 -07:00
```js
arr.reduce((accumulator, currentValue) => {
return accumulator + currentValue;
}, 0);
```
2019-12-07 17:11:14 -07:00
2019-12-07 17:11:14 -07:00
At `arr[0]` , the function is `(0, 1) => { return 0 + 1 }` ,
since `arr[0] = 1 = currentValue` .
2019-12-07 17:11:14 -07:00
2019-12-07 17:11:14 -07:00
At `arr[1]` , the function is `(1, 3) => 1 + 3` ,
2019-12-07 17:11:14 -07:00
2019-12-07 17:11:14 -07:00
Finally at `arr[2]` , the function is `(4, 5) => 4 + 5` . Now the accumulator is `9` and since we have gone through all of the items in `arr` , the `reduce()` method will return `9` .
2019-12-07 17:11:14 -07:00
2019-12-07 17:11:14 -07:00
In the body of the callback function, replace `/* code to run */` with `return accumulator + currentValue` .
