# --description--
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
In this challenge, you have to find the strings that are the longest among the given strings.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
# --instructions--
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Write a function that takes an array of strings and returns the strings that have a length equal to the longest length.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
# --hints--
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
`longestString` should be a function.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```js
 | 
						|
assert(typeof longestString == 'function');
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
`longestString(["a", "bb", "ccc", "ee", "f", "ggg"])` should return a array.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```js
 | 
						|
assert(Array.isArray(longestString(['a', 'bb', 'ccc', 'ee', 'f', 'ggg'])));
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
`longestString(["a", "bb", "ccc", "ee", "f", "ggg"])` should return `["ccc", "ggg"]'`.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```js
 | 
						|
assert.deepEqual(longestString(['a', 'bb', 'ccc', 'ee', 'f', 'ggg']), [
 | 
						|
  'ccc',
 | 
						|
  'ggg'
 | 
						|
]);
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
`longestString(["afedg", "bb", "sdccc", "efdee", "f", "geegg"])` should return `["afedg", "sdccc", "efdee", "geegg"]`.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```js
 | 
						|
assert.deepEqual(
 | 
						|
  longestString(['afedg', 'bb', 'sdccc', 'efdee', 'f', 'geegg']),
 | 
						|
  ['afedg', 'sdccc', 'efdee', 'geegg']
 | 
						|
);
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
`longestString(["a", "bhghgb", "ccc", "efde", "fssdrr", "ggg"])` should return `["bhghgb", "fssdrr"]`.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```js
 | 
						|
assert.deepEqual(
 | 
						|
  longestString(['a', 'bhghgb', 'ccc', 'efde', 'fssdrr', 'ggg']),
 | 
						|
  ['bhghgb', 'fssdrr']
 | 
						|
);
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
`longestString(["ahgfhg", "bdsfsb", "ccc", "ee", "f", "ggdsfg"])` should return `["ahgfhg", "bdsfsb", "ggdsfg"]`.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```js
 | 
						|
assert.deepEqual(
 | 
						|
  longestString(['ahgfhg', 'bdsfsb', 'ccc', 'ee', 'f', 'ggdsfg']),
 | 
						|
  ['ahgfhg', 'bdsfsb', 'ggdsfg']
 | 
						|
);
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
`longestString(["a", "bbdsf", "ccc", "edfe", "gzzzgg"])` should return `["gzzzgg"]`.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```js
 | 
						|
assert.deepEqual(longestString(['a', 'bbdsf', 'ccc', 'edfe', 'gzzzgg']), [
 | 
						|
  'gzzzgg'
 | 
						|
]);
 | 
						|
```
 |

function longestString(strings) {
 | 
						|
 |

}
 |

```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
# --solutions--
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```js
 | 
						|
function longestString(strings) {
 | 
						|
    var mx = 0;
 | 
						|
    var result = []
 | 
						|
    strings.forEach(function (e) {
 | 
						|
        if (e.length > mx) {
 | 
						|
            mx = e.length
 | 
						|
            result = [e]
 | 
						|
        } else if (e.length == mx)
 | 
						|
            result.push(e)
 | 
						|
    })
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    return result
 | 
						|
}
 |
