Explanation:

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.

Hint: 1

Remember to iterate through the first argument to check each object.

Hint: 2

Only if all of them are truth will we return true, so make sure all of them check.

Hint: 3

You could use loops or callbacks functions, there are multiple ways to solve this problem.

Spoiler Alert!

Solutions ahead!

Code Solution using for-in loop & hasOwnProperty:

function every(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;
}

Code Explanation:

  • 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

Code Solution using Array.every():

function every(collection, pre) {
  return collection.every(function (element) {
    return element.hasOwnProperty(pre) && Boolean(element[pre]);
  });
}

Code Explanation:

  • Uses the native "every" method to test whether all elements in the array pass the test.
  • This link will help Array.prototype.every()

Code solution using Array.reduce:

function every(collection, pre) {
    return collection.reduce(function(acc, next) {
        if (next[pre]) {
            return acc;
        } else {
            acc = false;
            return acc;
        }
    },true);

Code Explanation:

  • 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.
