// Task 1: Sum of All Elements in an Array
// Example:
console.log(sumArray([1, 2, 3, 4])); // 10



          

// Hmm... Let me try
function sumArray(arr) {
return arr.reduce((acc, curr) => acc + curr, 0);
}

The best JavaScript playground I have ever used.
I've tried many JS playgrounds and sandboxes, but PlayCode is on another level. The instant live preview, React and Vue support out of the box, and Tailwind CSS integration make it my go-to JavaScript playground for prototyping. No npm install, no setup, just code and see results instantly.
