Hint: 1
Falsy is something which evaluates to FALSE. There are only six falsy values in JavaScript: undefined, null, NaN, 0, "" (empty string), and false of course.

Hint: 2
We need to make sure we have all the falsy values to compare, we can know it, maybe with a function with all the falsy values...

Spoiler Alert!
Solution ahead!
Advanced Code Solution:
function bouncer(arr) {
return arr.filter(Boolean);
}
Code Explanation:
The Array.prototype.filter
method expects a function that returns a Boolean
value which takes a single argument and returns true
for truthy value or false
for falsy value. Hence we pass the built-in Boolean
function.
