Leaders array JavaScript


An element in an array of Numbers is a leader if it is greater than all the elements on its right side. We are required to write a JavaScript function that takes in an array of Numbers and returns a subarray of all the elements that are fulfil the criteria of being a leader element.

For example −

If the input array is:
[23, 55, 2, 56, 3, 6, 7, 1]
Then the output should be:
[56, 7, 1]

Let's write the code for this function −

Example

const arr = [23, 55, 2, 56, 3, 6, 7, 1];
const leaderArray = arr => {
   const creds = arr.reduceRight((acc, val) => {
      let { max, res } = acc;
      if(val > max){
         res.unshift(val);
         max = val;
      };
      return { max, res };
   }, {
      max: -Infinity,
      res: []
   })
   return creds.res;
};
console.log(leaderArray(arr));

Output

The output in the console will be −

[56, 7, 1]
