Front End Web Development Techdegree Graduate 19,434 PointsAbbreviation gone wrong.
I don't know what to do with this thing. I've tried a couple of things but still haven't figure it out.
const daysOfWeek = ["Sunday", "Monday", "Tuesday", "Wednesday", "Thursday", "Friday", "Saturday"];
let abbreviatedDays;
// abbreviatedDays should be: ["Sun", "Mon", "Tue", "Wed", "Thu", "Fri", "Sat"]
// Write your code below
abbreviatedDays = daysOfWeek.map(days => days);

Python Web Development Techdegree Student 16,241 Pointswe need to map over the daysOfWeek array and for each element we slice the day, the map function returns a new array so we can save that to the abbreviatedDays variable
const daysOfWeek = ["Sunday", "Monday", "Tuesday", "Wednesday", "Thursday", "Friday", "Saturday"];
let abbreviatedDays;
abbreviatedDays = daysOfWeek.map((day) => {
return day.slice(0, 3);
});

Front End Web Development Techdegree Graduate 19,434 PointsThank you for this one. This is my first time hearing the slice method, I believe it was not mentioned in the video before this code challenge or I must've just missed it. But, thanks so much!
