Dividing an array by filter function

Question

I have a Javascript array that I would like to split into two based on whether a function called on each element returns true or false. Essentially

Answer 1

With ES6 you can make use of the spread syntax with reduce:

function partition(array, isValid) {
  return array.reduce(([pass, fail], elem) => {
    return isValid(elem) ? [[...pass, elem], fail] : [pass, [...fail, elem]];
  }, [[], []]);
}

const [pass, fail] = partition(myArray, (e) => e > 5);

Or on a single line:

const [pass, fail] = a.reduce(([p, f], e) => (e > 5 ? [[...p, e], f] : [p, [...f, e]]), [[], []]);
