Removes elements from the end of an array until the passed function returns `false`.
Returns the removed elements.
- Create a reversed copy of the array, using the spread operator (`...`) and `Array.prototype.reverse()`.
- Loop through the reversed copy, using a `for...of` loop over `Array.prototype.entries()` until the returned value from the function is falsy.
- Return the removed elements, using `Array.prototype.slice()`.
- The callback function, `fn`, accepts a single argument which is the value of the element.
```js
const takeRightWhile = (arr, fn) => {
for (const [i, val] of [...arr].reverse().entries())
if (!fn(val)) return i === 0 ? [] : arr.slice(-i);
return arr;
};
```
```js
takeRightWhile([1, 2, 3, 4], n => n >= 3); // [3, 4]
```
