JavaScript: Join all elements of an array into a string and returns this string

JavaScript fundamental (ES6 Syntax): Exercise-182 with Solution

Write a JavaScript program to join all elements of an array into a string and return this string. Use a separator and an end separator.

• Use Array.prototype.reduce() to combine elements into a string.
• Omit the second argument, separator, to use a default separator of ','.
• Omit the third argument, end, to use the same value as separator by default.

Sample Solution:

JavaScript Code:

//#Source https://bit.ly/2neWfJ2 
const join = (arr, separator = ',', end = separator) =>
  arr.reduce(
    (acc, val, i) =>
      i === arr.length - 2
        ? acc + val + end
        : i === arr.length - 1
          ? acc + val
          : acc + val + separator,
    ''
  );
console.log(join(['pen', 'pineapple', 'apple', 'pen'], ',', '&'));
console.log(join(['pen', 'pineapple', 'apple', 'pen'], ','));
console.log(join(['pen', 'pineapple', 'apple', 'pen']));

Sample Output:

pen,pineapple,apple&pen
pen,pineapple,apple,pen
pen,pineapple,apple,pen
