JavaScript: Split values of two given arrays into two groups

JavaScript fundamental (ES6 Syntax): Exercise-17 with Solution

Write a JavaScript program to split the values of two given arrays into two groups. If an element in the filter is true, the corresponding element in the collection belongs to the first group; otherwise, it belongs to the second group.

• Use Array.prototype.reduce() and Array.prototype.push() to add elements to groups, based on filter.
• If filter has a truthy value for any element, add it to the first group, otherwise add it to the second group.

Sample Solution:

JavaScript Code:

//#Source https://bit.ly/2neWfJ2 
const bifurcate = (arr, filter) =>
  arr.reduce((acc, val, i) => (acc[filter[i] ? 0 : 1].push(val), acc), [[], []]);
console.log(bifurcate([1, 2, 3, 4], [true, true, false, true]));
console.log(bifurcate([1, 2, 3, 4], [true, true, true, true]));
console.log(bifurcate([1, 2, 3, 4], [false, false, false, false]));

Sample Output:

[[1,2,4],[3]]
[[1,2,3,4],[]]
[[],[1,2,3,4]]
