Mathias Bynens 8ee50178f3 Avoid confusing prototype methods for static methods
Correct: `Array.from()` (it’s a static method)
Incorrect: `Array.join()` (doesn’t exist; it’s a prototype method)

This patch uses the common `#` syntax to denote `.prototype.`.

### findLastIndex
Returns the index of the last element for which the provided function returns a truthy value.
Use `Array.prototype.map()` to map each element to an array with its index and value.
Use `Array.prototype.filter()` to remove elements for which `fn` returns falsey values, `Array.prototype.pop()` to get the last one.
```js
const findLastIndex = (arr, fn) =>
arr
.map((val, i) => [i, val])
.filter(([i, val]) => fn(val, i, arr))
.pop()[0];
```
```js
findLastIndex([1, 2, 3, 4], n => n % 2 === 1); // 2 (index of the value 3)
```
