hey THANKS Francisco. At first array.reduce is really daunting but it gets easier with a use case. I use reduce to group results by month in a stacked bar chart. You can get code from my codepen and study it carefully so reduce becomes easier. DON'T UNDERESTIMATE the power of REDUCE.

click here for more, then download fully commented code from codepen.
