Courses Plus Student 278 PointsWhy does this forEach code cause weird repeat and format of answer?
months.forEach(month => {
capitalizedMonths.push(month.toUpperCase())
})
causes answer to come out as
[ 'JANUARY' ]
[ 'JANUARY', 'FEBRUARY' ]
[ 'JANUARY', 'FEBRUARY', 'MARCH' ]
[ 'JANUARY', 'FEBRUARY', 'MARCH', 'APRIL' ]
[ 'JANUARY', 'FEBRUARY', 'MARCH', 'APRIL', 'MAY' ]
instead of [ 'JANUARY', 'FEBRUARY', 'MARCH', 'APRIL', 'MAY' ]
?

But if you try this outside of the challenge, and add logging inside the loop, then what you show would be the expected output as you would see the new array being built up one step at a time.

forEach
has completed.
