Hi,
I just seem to get arrays split up given back to me, can anybody help me see where I’m going wrong? Probably in lots of places. Thanks!

function chunkArrayInGroups(arr, size) {
  // Break it up.
  var newArr = [];
  for (let i = 0; i < arr.length; i++) {
    newArr.push(arr.splice(0, size));
  }
  return newArr;
}

chunkArrayInGroups(["a", "b", "c", "d"], 2);

You shouldn’t use splice here as doing so mutates arr, which you are also using to loop over. Instead use slice (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Array/slice). You can use it to copy the parts of arr that you need. Also, you shouldn’t increment i by 1 on each loop iteration. Instead, increase it by size.

Method splice changes the original array, hence every iteration arr.length value is changing.

Try to change your function a little that it iterates number of times depending on two provided arguments.

EDIT:
As joops75 said you can use slice method which has better performance however you can achieve correct result easily using both methods.
