Splits values into two groups according to a predicate function, which specifies which group an element in the input collection belongs to. If the predicate function returns a truthy value, the collection element belongs to the first group; otherwise, it belongs to the second group.
- Use `Array.prototype.reduce()` and `Array.prototype.push()` to add elements to groups, based on the value returned by `fn` for each element.
```js
const bifurcateBy = (arr, fn) =>
arr.reduce((acc, val, i) => (acc[fn(val, i) ? 0 : 1].push(val), acc), [[], []]);
```
```js
bifurcateBy(['beep', 'boop', 'foo', 'bar'], x => x[0] === 'b'); // [ ['beep', 'boop', 'bar'], ['foo'] ]
```
