## Description
<section id='description'>


Create a function that looks through an array `arr` and returns the first element in it that passes a 'truth test'. This means that given an element `x`, the 'truth test' is passed if `func(x)` is `true`. If no element passes the test, return `undefined`.

    testString: assert.strictEqual(findElement([1, 3, 5, 8, 9, 10], function(num) { return num % 2 === 0; }), 8);
  - text: <code>findElement([1, 3, 5, 9], function(num) { return num % 2 === 0; })</code> should return undefined.
