In this question, the candidate needs to implement a function customFindIndex that mimics the behaviour of Array.prototype.findIndex method.

More about Array.prototype.findIndex

The findIndex() method returns the index of the first element in an array that satisfies the provided testing function. If no elements satisfy the testing function, -1 is returned.

Examples

const array = [1,2,3,12,13,15];

const greaterThanTen = (element) => element > 10;

console.print(array.findIndex(greaterThanTen));
// expected output: 3

Syntax

The customFindIndex takes two parameters

  1. callback function

Function to execute on each value in the array. The function is called with the following arguments:

element

  • The current element in the array.

index

  • The index (position) of the current element in the array.

array

  • The array that customFind was called on.

The callback must return a truthy value to indicate a matching element has been found.

  1. thisArg (Optional)

Object to use as this inside callbackFn.

customFindIndex(callback, thisArg)
