Tell us what’s happening:

hi guys , could help me plzzzz

Your code so far

var array = [4,5,6,7,8];
var singleVal = 0;

// Only change code below this line.

singleVal = array;

What is your question? what have you tried?

To be honest , I tried several times to understand the concept , but the effort seems to have gone in vain
this my trial
could u help me please ?

var array = [4,5,6,7,8];
var singleVal = 0;

// Only change code below this line.

var singleVal = array.reduce(function(previousVal, currentVal) {
return previousVal - currentVal;
}, 0)

I don’t know !! I just copy - paste from the example !

Indeed it seems like you just c/p without reading :stuck_out_tongue:
From the exemple itself :

Here is an example of reduce being used to subtract all the values of an array

var singleVal = array.reduce(function(previousVal, currentVal) {
  return previousVal - currentVal;
}, 0);

Just a spoiler, you already got everything needed to solve this problem :smiley:

Edit: With your to-be-deleted post you are clearly not seeking to understand but just have the answer. I won’t help you further more here.

JavaScript
I tried repeatedly
If you like the help, welcome, or else leave

  1. Read the instructions
  2. Read the instructions
  3. Read, the, instructions

I won’t give you the damn working code because you don’t want to read

So you are going to answer thoses questions

  • What does x - y do (mathematic field)

  • What does return do

  • What does return x - y do

  • What does substract mean ?

  • What does subtract all the values of an array mean ?
