:checkered_flag: Problem Explanation:

Remove all falsy values from an array.

:speech_balloon: Hint: 1

Falsy is something which evaluates to FALSE. There are only six falsy values in JavaScript: undefined, null, NaN, 0, "" (empty string), and false of course.

:speech_balloon: Hint: 2

We need to make sure we have all the falsy values to compare, we can know it, maybe with a function with all the falsy values...

:speech_balloon: Hint: 3

Then we need to add a filter() with the falsy values function...

Solution ahead!

:rotating_light: Advanced Code Solution:

function bouncer(arr) {
  return arr.filter(Boolean);
}

:rocket: Run Code

Code Explanation:

The Array.prototype.filter method expects a function that returns a Boolean value which takes a single argument and returns true for truthy value or false for falsy value. Hence we pass the built-in Boolean function.
