Delicious JavaScript: Delectable Explanations of the Power of JS
summary
Explains exactly how filter, map, and reduce operate on arrays with runnable examples: filters a food array to only cookies, maps a marshmallow array to uppercase “jumbo” strings, chains filter then map to remove a stray cloud, and uses reduce with an explicit initial value to sum donut calories (example total 3,336 calories). Builds an emoji-based order -> receipt pipeline by filtering the menu, mapping counts and prices, then reducing to subtotal and ~3% Richmond sales tax; the code produces the intended receipt.
