What was the issue?
The
newFilter
method allows undefined values to be part of the filtered array but the native implementation removes that.How to replicate it?
Add
numbers[7] = 9
and change condition to filter odd numbers and you will find out that it doesn't filter empty/undefined values in the array.numbers array would be -
What is the reason?
When we call
callback.call(context, this[index], index, this)
for undefined value then it producestrue
and it pushes the value toresult
array.How to prevent it?
We need to put a guard condition to only allow values that are actually part of the array and not produced artificially. The proposed condition makes sure that it matches with native
.filter
output.
