Exercise 19: Reducing with an initial value

[haveagoodone]

If I console.log() the result of this exercise, it is not like the expected one:

[
  {
    "65432445": "The Chamber",
    "675465": "Fracture",
    "70111470": "Die Hard",
    "654356453": "Bad Boys"
  }
]

it looks like this:

[
  {
    "654356453": "Bad Boys"
  }
]

Is the expected output wrong or just the solution?

Thanks for the great Exercises at all.

I had the same result. It took me a while to figure it out. The expected output is using the implementation of the reduce function from exercise 16, which returns an array of accumulated values. You are using the standard reduce method from the Array.prototype object in Javascript, which only returns a single accumulated value. To get the desired output just add reduce implementation from exercise 16 to the Javascript Array.prototype.

Cheers!

@wwwfreedom thanks for your explanation:smile: . And btw, what should I do about the different behavior of them in real world?

#44 Reduce returns an array, not a value which is a very detailed explanation about reduce/fold thing
