  2. Example 2

Example 1

In the first example, we'll use array.reduce() method to sum our array. Let's see the code snippet below

const arr = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10];
const sum = arr.reduce((a, b) => a   b, 0);
console.log('The sum of array using for array reduce is = ' sum);

Which'll produce the below result.

Example 2

In this example, we'll use for loop to sum our array. Let's look at the below code snippet

let total = 0;
let len = arr.length;
for (let i = 0; i < len; i  ) {
   total  = arr[i];
}
console.log('The sum of array using for Loop is = ' total);

Which'll produce the same result which we get in #step1.

That's it for today. Hope this will be helpful for your future work. Thanks for reading. ๐Ÿ™‚
