JavaScript: Get removed elements from the end of a given array until the passed function returns true

JavaScript fundamental (ES6 Syntax): Exercise-129 with Solution

Write a JavaScript program to get removed elements from the end of a given array until the passed function returns true.

  • Create a reversed copy of the array, using the spread operator (...) and Array.prototype.reverse().
  • Loop through the reversed copy, using a for...of loop over Array.prototype.entries() until the returned value from the function is falsy.
  • Return the removed elements, using Array.prototype.slice().
  • The callback function, fn, accepts a single argument which is the value of the element.

Sample Solution:

JavaScript Code:

//#Source https://bit.ly/2neWfJ2 
const takeRightWhile = (arr, func) => {
  for (let i of arr.reverse().keys())
    if (func(arr[i])) return arr.reverse().slice(arr.length - i, arr.length);
  return arr;
};

console.log(takeRightWhile([1, 2, 3, 4], n => n < 3));

Sample Output:

[3,4]
