Description

The reduceRight() method executes a function on every item in the array and collects the results from previous calls, but in reverse order.

This method has the form:

Array.reduceRight(callback[, initialValue])

Parameter	Description
callback	(required) Specifies the function to execute on each value in the array The callback is invoked with four arguments: 1. previousValue - the value previously returned in the last invocation of the callback, or initialValue, if supplied, 2. currentValue - The current element in the array being processed, 3. index - the index of the current element being processed in the array, and 4. array - the array that was called upon
initialValue	(optional) Specifies the object to use as the first argument to the first call of the callback

Note: The first time the callback is called, previousValue and currentValue can be one of two values. If initialValue is provided in the call to reduceRight, then previousValue will be equal to initialValue and currentValue will be equal to the last value in the array. If no initialValue was provided, then previousValue will be equal to the last value in the array and currentValue will be equal to the second-to-last value.

Examples

The following example shows the basic use of this method.

<script>
function sumFunction(previousValue, currentValue, index, array) {
  return previousValue + currentValue;
}

var sum = [0, 1, 2, 3].reduceRight(sumFunction);
document.write("sum = " + sum);
</script>

This produces the following result:
