Algorithm Everything Be True - ashish9342/FreeCodeCamp GitHub Wiki
🚩 Remember to use Read-Search-Ask
if you get stuck. Try to pair program 👥 and write your own code 📝
The program needs to check if the second argument is a truthy element, and it must check this for each object in the first argument.
Remember to iterate through the first argument to check each object.
try to solve the problem now
Only if all of them are truth will we return true, so make sure all of them check.

You could use loops or callbacks functions, there are multiple ways to solve this problem.
Solutions ahead!
Using for-in loop & hasOwnProperty
function truthCheck(collection, pre) {
// Create a counter to check how many are true.
var counter = 0;
// Check for each object
for (var c in collection) {
// If it is has property and value is truthy
if (collection[c].hasOwnProperty(pre) && Boolean(collection[c][pre])) {
counter++;
}
}
// Outside the loop, check to see if we got true for all of them and return true or false
return counter == collection.length;
}
// test here
truthCheck([{"user": "Tinky-Winky", "sex": "male"}, {"user": "Dipsy", "sex": "male"}, {"user": "Laa-Laa", "sex": "female"}, {"user": "Po", "sex": "female"}], "sex");
🚀 Run Code
- First I create a counter to check how many cases are actually true.
- Then check for each object if the value is truthy
- Outside the loop, I check to see if the counter variable has the same value as the length of collection, if true then return true, otherwise, return false
Using Array.every()
function truthCheck(collection, pre) {
return collection.every(function (element) {
return element.hasOwnProperty(pre) && Boolean(element[pre]);
});
}
// test here
truthCheck([{"user": "Tinky-Winky", "sex": "male"}, {"user": "Dipsy", "sex": "male"}, {"user": "Laa-Laa", "sex": "female"}, {"user": "Po", "sex": "female"}], "sex");
🚀 Run Code
- Uses the native "every" method to test whether all elements in the array pass the test.
- This link will help Array.prototype.every()
Using Array.reduce
function truthCheck(collection, pre) {
return collection.reduce(function(acc, next) {
if (next[pre]) {
return acc;
}
else {
acc = false;
return acc;
}
},true);
}
// test here
truthCheck([{"user": "Tinky-Winky", "sex": "male"}, {"user": "Dipsy", "sex": "male"}, {"user": "Laa-Laa", "sex": "female"}, {"user": "Po", "sex": "female"}], "sex");
🚀 Run Code
- Set initial reduce value to true.
- Change it to false only when there is no key of a given name or it's falsy. Otherwise stick to the initial truthy value.
