Removes elements in an array until the passed function returns `true`.
|
|
Returns the remaining elements in the array.
|
|
|
|
- Loop through the array, using `Array.prototype.slice()` to drop the first element of the array until the value returned from `func` is `true`.
|
|
- Return the remaining elements.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
const dropWhile = (arr, func) => {
|
|
while (arr.length > 0 && !func(arr[0])) arr = arr.slice(1);
|
|
return arr;
|
|
};
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
dropWhile([1, 2, 3, 4], n => n >= 3); // [3, 4]
|
|
```
