Assignment #1 - Create a map functions that takes 2 inputs an array and a transformation callback/function 
and transform the array into a new one using transformation function
*/


// Function to map an array to a new one using a transformation function
function map(array, transformFunc) {
    // Initialize an empty array to store transformed elements
    const transformedArray = [];

    // Loop through each element in the input array
    for (let i = 0; i < array.length; i++) {
        // Apply the transformation function to each element and push to the new array
        transformedArray.push(transformFunc(array[i]));
    }

    // Return the new transformed array
    return transformedArray;
}

// Test the map function with an example
const numbers = [1, 2, 3, 4];

// Transformation function to double the value
const double = (num) => num * 2; 

// Apply the map function to double each element in the numbers array
const doubledNumbers = map(numbers, double);

// Print the transformed array
console.log(doubledNumbers); // Output: [2, 4, 6, 8]
