   })
   return result;
 }
var arr=[1,2,3,4];
cons         


        

Answer 1

• Re-assigning that value to i won't update the original array.

• You don't need to concat that array, just initialize that array as empty [].

• Add every square value to the new array.

function square(arr) {
  var result = [];
  arr.forEach(function(i) {
    i = i * i;
    result.push(i);
  });
  return result;
}
var arr = [1, 2, 3, 4];
console.log(square(arr))
