Creates an array of partial sums.
|
|
|
|
- Use `Array.prototype.reduce()`, initialized with an empty array accumulator to iterate over `nums`.
|
|
- Use `Array.prototype.slice()` to get the previous partial sum or `0` and add the current element to it.
|
|
- Use the spread operator (`...`) to add the new partial sum to the accumulator array containing the previous sums.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
const accumulate = (...nums) =>
|
|
nums.reduce((acc, n) => [...acc, n + (acc.slice(-1)[0] || 0)], []);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
accumulate(1, 2, 3, 4); // [1, 3, 6, 10]
|
|
accumulate(...[1, 2, 3, 4]); // [1, 3, 6, 10]
|
|
```
