Counts the occurrences of a value in an array.
|
|
|
|
- Use `Array.prototype.reduce()` to increment a counter each time the specific value is encountered inside the array.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
const countOccurrences = (arr, val) =>
|
|
arr.reduce((a, v) => (v === val ? a + 1 : a), 0);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
countOccurrences([1, 1, 2, 1, 2, 3], 1); // 3
|
|
```
