function: filter


filter(collection: Array, Object, predicate: function): Array

Iterates over elements of `collection`, returning an array of all elements `predicate` returns truthy for. The predicate is invoked with three arguments: (value, index|key, collection). **Note:** Unlike `remove`, this method returns a new array.

Example(s):

const users = [
  { 'user': 'barney', 'active': true },
  { 'user': 'fred',   'active': false }
]

filter(users, ({ active }) => active)
// => objects for ['barney']

Params:

Name Type Attribute Description
collection The collection to iterate over.
predicate The function invoked per iteration.

Returns:

Array
