Implement the type `Filter<T, Predicate>` takes an Array `T`, primitive type or union primitive type `Predicate` and returns an Array include the elements of `Predicate`. Learn array type operations in this medium-level challenge on TypeScriptPro.
In this medium-level challenge, you'll implement Filter<T, Predicate> which takes a tuple T and a primitive type (or union of primitive types) Predicate, and returns a new tuple containing only the elements that extend Predicate.
Implement the type Filter<T, Predicate> takes an Array T, primitive type or union primitive type Predicate and returns an Array include the elements of Predicate.
Change the following code to make the test cases pass (no type check errors).
We recursively walk through the tuple, checking each element against the predicate and accumulating matches.
type Filter<T extends any[], P> = T extends [infer First, ...infer Rest]
? First extends P
? [First, ...Filter<Rest, P>]
: Filter<Rest, P>
: []How it works:
infer First and ...infer Rest to destructure the tuple into its head and tailFirst extends P checks if the current element matches the predicate type (including union members)First in the result and recurse on RestRestThis challenge helps you understand recursive tuple filtering with conditional types and how to apply this concept in real-world scenarios.
