Using .filter for the second task

const output = () => { const male = people.filter(person => person.gender === 'male'); const female = people.filter(person => person.gender === 'female'); return { male: male, female: female }; }; output();

A more generic solution to group by any property:

Array.prototype.groupBy = function (p) { return this.reduce((g, i) => { g[i[p]] = g[i[p]] || []; g[i[p]].push(i); return g; }, {}); };

I may use the implicit variables so that you could read easily, see my comments for the explanations

// get the input property to group by, we attach the function to the prototype object Array.prototype.groupBy = function (prop) { // then apply reduce return this.reduce((group, item) => { // create new property for the group object if not existed, if yes, reassign from the accumulator  group[item[prop]] = group[item[prop]] || []; // add new item to the group of property (in this case, a list) we want to group group[item[prop]].push(item); return group; // create initial empty object to implement reduce }, {}); };

Then we can use people.groupBy('gender') or people.groupBy('age')

let value = "5+8=x";
let arr=value.split("=")
arr=arr[0].split("+").map(Number).reduce((acc,e)=>acc+e)
console.log(arr)
