JavaScript: Get the first key that satisfies the provided testing function

JavaScript fundamental (ES6 Syntax): Exercise-236 with Solution

Write a JavaScript program to get the first key that satisfies the provided testing function. Otherwise return undefined.

• Use Object.keys(obj) to get all the properties of the object, Array.prototype.find() to test each key-value pair using fn.
• The callback receives three arguments - the value, the key and the object.

Sample Solution:

JavaScript Code:

//#Source https://bit.ly/2neWfJ2 
const findKey = (obj, fn) => Object.keys(obj).find(key => fn(obj[key], key, obj));

console.log(findKey(
  {
    barney: { age: 36, active: true },
    fred: { age: 40, active: false },
    pebbles: { age: 1, active: true }
  },
  o => o['active']
));

Sample Output:

barney
