JavaScript Math: Exercise-18 with Solution
Write a JavaScript function to calculate the product of values in an array.
Test Data:

Sample Solution:
JavaScript Code:
// Define a function named sum that calculates the sum of an array of numbers.
function sum(input){
// Check if the input is an array, if not, return false.
if (toString.call(input) !== "[object Array]")
return false;
var total = 0;
// Iterate through the input array and sum the numeric elements.
for(var i = 0; i < input.length; i++) {
// If the element is not a number, skip to the next element.
if(isNaN(input[i])){
continue;
}
// Add the numeric value of the element to the total.
total += Number(input[i]);
}
// Return the total sum.
return total;
}
// Output the sum of the numbers in the array [1, 2, 3] to the console.
console.log(sum([1, 2, 3]));
// Output the sum of the numbers in the array [100, -200, 3] to the console.
console.log(sum([100, -200, 3]));
// Output the sum of the numbers in the array [1, 2, 'a', 3] to the console.
console.log(sum([1, 2, 'a', 3]));
Output:
6 -60000 6
