Problem
We are required to write a JavaScript function that takes in an array. Our function should change the array numbers like this −
- If the number is odd, leave it changed.
- If the number is even, subtract 1 from it.
And we should return the new array.
Example
Following is the code −
const arr = [5, 23, 6, 3, 66, 12, 8]; const reduceToOdd = (arr = []) => { const res = []; for(let i = 0; i < arr.length; i++){ const el = arr[i]; if(el % 2 === 1){ res.push(el); }else{ res.push(el - 1); }; }; return res; }; console.log(reduceToOdd(arr));
Output
Following is the console output −
[ 5, 23, 5, 3, 65, 11, 7 ]
