Creates an array of partial sums.

• Use Array.prototype.reduce(), initialized with an empty array accumulator to iterate over nums.
• Use Array.prototype.slice(-1), the spread operator (...) and the unary + operator to add each value to the accumulator array containing the previous sums.

const accumulate = (...nums) => nums.reduce((acc, n) => [...acc, n + +acc.slice(-1)],[]);

accumulate(1, 2, 3, 4); // [1, 3, 6, 10]
accumulate(...[1, 2, 3, 4]); // [1, 3, 6, 10]
