// we have 2 solutions here, an easier one and a more advanced one.

// The easiest way to get an array of all of the arguments that are passed to a function

// is using the spread operator. If this is unfamiliar to you look it up!

const removeFromArray = function (...args) {

// the very first item in our list of arguments is the array, we pull it out with args[0]

const array = args[0];

// create a new empty array

const newArray = [];

// use forEach to go through the array

array.forEach((item) => {

// push every element into the new array

// UNLESS it is included in the function arguments

// so we create a new array with every item, except those that should be removed

if (!args.includes(item)) {

newArray.push(item);

}

});

// and return that array

return newArray;

};

// A simpler, but more advanced way to do it is to use the 'filter' function,

// which basically does what we did with the forEach above.

// var removeFromArray = function(...args) {

// const array = args[0]

// return array.filter(val => !args.includes(val))

// }

//

module.exports = removeFromArray;
