Tell us what’s happening:
I do not know if I am hallucinating, but this compiler does not correctly compile the code? I wrote code that was supposed to print out the empty new array, then push an element in the new array from the argument, then print out the result of the new array.
However, it prints out the newArray full of elements before the push method is even run?
I do not think it is supposed to push all elements in the first iteration? I entered the exact same code in other compilers and they worked normally. Below I have the difference between the freeCodeCamp console and the CodePen console with the same code inputted.
freeCodeCamp compiler:
Before push: 0 [ ‘a’, ‘b’, ‘c’, ‘d’ ] [ ‘a’, ‘b’, ‘c’, ‘d’ ]
After push: [ ‘a’, ‘b’, ‘c’, ‘d’ ] [ ‘a’, ‘b’, ‘c’, ‘d’ ]
Before push: 1 [ ‘a’, ‘b’, ‘c’, ‘d’ ] [ ‘a’, ‘b’, ‘c’, ‘d’ ]
After push: [ ‘a’, ‘b’, ‘c’, ‘d’ ] [ ‘a’, ‘b’, ‘c’, ‘d’ ]
Before push: 2 [ ‘a’, ‘b’, ‘c’, ‘d’ ] [ ‘a’, ‘b’, ‘c’, ‘d’ ]
After push: [ ‘a’, ‘b’, ‘c’, ‘d’ ] [ ‘a’, ‘b’, ‘c’, ‘d’ ]
Before push: 3 [ ‘a’, ‘b’, ‘c’, ‘d’ ] [ ‘a’, ‘b’, ‘c’, ‘d’ ]
After push: [ ‘a’, ‘b’, ‘c’, ‘d’ ] [ ‘a’, ‘b’, ‘c’, ‘d’ ]
CodePen Console:
"Before push: " 0 // [object Array] (4) [“a”,“b”,“c”,“d”] // [object Array] (0)
"After push: " // [object Array] (4) [“a”,“b”,“c”,“d”] // [object Array] (1) [“a”]
"Before push: " 1 // [object Array] (4) [“a”,“b”,“c”,“d”] // [object Array] (1) [“a”]
"After push: " // [object Array] (4) [“a”,“b”,“c”,“d”] // [object Array] (2) [“a”,“b”]

"After push: " // [object Array] (4) [“a”,“b”,“c”,“d”] // [object Array] (2) [“a”,“b”]
"Before push: " 2 // [object Array] (4) [“a”,“b”,“c”,“d”] // [object Array] (2) [“a”,“b”]
"After push: " // [object Array] (4) [“a”,“b”,“c”,“d”] // [object Array] (3) [“a”,“b”,“c”]
"Before push: " 3 // [object Array] (4) [“a”,“b”,“c”,“d”] // [object Array] (3) [“a”,“b”,“c”]
"After push: " // [object Array] (4) [“a”,“b”,“c”,“d”] // [object Array] (4) [“a”,“b”,“c”,“d”]
If there is a bug in the compiler, please fix it. Thanks.
Your code so far
function chunkArrayInGroups(insertedArr, numOfArrays){
let finalArr = [];
let newArr = [];
for(let i = 0; i<insertedArr.length; i++){
console.log("Before push: ", i, insertedArr, newArr);
newArr.push(insertedArr[i]);
console.log("After push: ", insertedArr, newArr);
}
}
chunkArrayInGroups(['a', 'b', 'c', 'd'], 2);
