19,991 PointsI don't know what I need to do to make my code work. Help.
I thought that I need to get into the "personal" part of the customers object to retrieve the hobbies, but apparently that's not working.
const customers = [
{
name: "Tyrone",
personal: {
age: 33,
hobbies: ["Bicycling", "Camping"]
}
},
{
name: "Elizabeth",
personal: {
age: 25,
hobbies: ["Guitar", "Reading", "Gardening"]
}
},
{
name: "Penny",
personal: {
age: 36,
hobbies: ["Comics", "Chess", "Legos"]
}
}
];
let hobbies;
// hobbies should be: ["Bicycling", "Camping", "Guitar", "Reading", "Gardening", "Comics", "Chess", "Legos"]
// Write your code below
hobbies = customers
.map(customer => customer.personal.map(person => person.hobbies))
.reduce((arr, hobby) => [...arr, ...hobby], []);

231,184 PointsYou're kind of close, but "personal" is another object so it has no "map" method. But you don't need "map" anyway, you can do this just with "reduce". Here's a few more hints:
- though the second argument is named "hobby", it represents an entire "customers" object
- each object will have another object named "personal" inside it
- the "personal" sub-object will have an array named "hobbies" in it
