Finds the last key that satisfies the provided testing function.
Otherwise `undefined` is returned.
- Use `Object.keys()` to get all the properties of the object.
- Use `Array.prototype.reverse()` to reverse the order and `Array.prototype.find()` to test the provided function for each key-value pair.
- The callback receives three arguments - the value, the key and the object.
```js
const findLastKey = (obj, fn) =>
Object.keys(obj)
.reverse()
.find(key => fn(obj[key], key, obj));
```
```js
findLastKey(
{
barney: { age: 36, active: true },
fred: { age: 40, active: false },
pebbles: { age: 1, active: true }
},
x => x['active']
); // 'pebbles'
```
