const weeklyReadings = [20, 22, 20.5, 19, 21, 21.5, 23];

const correctedWeeklyReadings = weeklyReadings.map(reading => reading + 1.5);

console.log(correctedWeeklyReadings); // gives [ 21.5, 23.5, 22, 20.5, 22.5, 23, 24.5 ]

2.	filter()

const weeklyReadings = [20, 22, 20.5, 19, 21, 21.5, 23];

const colderDays = weeklyReadings.filter(dayTemperature => {
    return dayTemperature < 20;
});

console.log("Total colder days in week were: " + colderDays.length); // 1

3.	reduce()

const numbers = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5];
const factorial = numbers.reduce((acc, item) => acc * item, 1);
console.log(factorial); // 120

4.	some()

const persons = [
    {
        name: 'Person 1',

    },
    
    {

const entries = [
    {
        id: 1
    },

    {

    console.log("All the entries have a valid id")

const heights2 = [1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, 1, 1];
