Renders a `<select>` element that uses a callback function to pass its value to the parent component.
- Use object destructuring to set defaults for certain attributes of the `<select>` element.
- Render a `<select>` element with the appropriate attributes and use the `callback` function in the `onChange` event to pass the value of the textarea to the parent.
- Use the `selected` attribute to define the `defaultValue` of the `<select>` element.
- Use destructuring on the `values` array to pass an array of `value` and `text` elements.
```jsx
const Select = ({ values, callback, disabled = false, readonly = false, selected }) => {
return (
<select
disabled={disabled}
readOnly={readonly}
defaultValue={selected}
onChange={({ target: { value } }) => callback(value)}
>
{values.map(([value, text]) => (
<option value={value}>
{text}
</option>
))}
</select>
);
};
```
```jsx
const choices = [
['grapefruit', 'Grapefruit'],
['lime', 'Lime'],
['coconut', 'Coconut'],
['mango', 'Mango']
];
ReactDOM.render(
<Select values={choices} selected="lime" callback={val => console.log(val)} />,
document.getElementById('root')
);
```
