array.filter() function

array.filter() is experimental and subject to change at any time.

array.filter() iterates over an array, evaluates each element with a predicate function, and then returns a new array with only elements that match the predicate.

Deprecated

Experimental array.filter() is deprecated in favor of array.filter().

Function type signature
(<-arr: [A], fn: (x: A) => bool) => [A]

Parameters

    1,
    2,
    3,

    5,
]
b = a |> array.filter(fn: (x) => x >= 3)
