I’m trying to condense the arrays into one singular array. Next I extract the values from the array omitting any repeats. However when using the set object I’m left with the error (ReferenceError: set is not defined). Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  **Your code so far**

function uniteUnique(arr) {
const singularity = arr.flat(Infinity);
for(let i = 0; i < singularity.length; i++){
new set(singularity);
}

}

uniteUnique([1, 3, 2], [5, 2, 1, 4], [2, 1]);

Hey there and welcome to the forums! :wave: :slightly_smiling_face:

Per JS standards the S would be capitalized as it’s a constructor. Checking the documentation we can see that is the case:

function uniteUnique(arr) {
const singularity = arr.flat(Infinity);
for(let i = 0; i < singularity.length; i++){
return […new set(singularity)];
}

}
// made a slight alteration but still no luck

It doesn’t look like you’ve changed your call to set(). As the lesson says set() is undefined.

What do you think this line does?

returns a single array of all the number transforming[1, 3, 2], [5, 2, 1, 4], [2, 1] …
Into [1,3,2,5,2,1,4,2,1] ?

How? You never use any of the function arguments.

function uniteUnique(…arr) {
const singularity = […arr.flat(Infinity)];
return […new Set(singularity)];

}
//thank you I see I only took in one of the parameters. This way singularity is an array and goes though all the arguments
