Implement Promise.all
Implement a function promiseAll(promises) that behaves like Promise.all. It should take an array of values or promises and return a single promise that resolves to an array of results, preserving order, or rejects as soon as one promise rejects.
What you’ll build / What this tests
This premium javascript coding focuses on Implement Promise.all. You’ll apply promise and async thinking with intermediate level constraints. The prompt emphasizes Implement a function promiseAll(promises) that behaves like Promise.all. It should take an array of values or….
Learning goals
- Translate the prompt into a clear javascript API signature and return shape.
- Apply promise, async, concurrency techniques to implement implement promise.all.
- Handle intermediate edge cases without sacrificing readability.
- Reason about time/space complexity and trade-offs in javascript.
Key decisions to discuss
- Define the exact input/output contract before coding.
- Choose iteration vs higher-order methods for readability.
- Decide on concurrency and error propagation behavior.
- Prioritize predictable edge-case handling over micro-optimizations.
Evaluation rubric
- Correctness: covers required behaviors and edge cases.
- Clarity: readable structure and predictable control flow.
- Complexity: avoids unnecessary work for large inputs.
- API discipline: no mutation of inputs; returns expected shape.
- Testability: solution is easy to unit test.
Constraints / Requirements
- Preserve input order and handle empty arrays safely.
- Handle async flow without blocking the event loop.
- Return a Promise and resolve asynchronously without blocking.
- Handle empty or missing inputs without throwing errors.
- Keep runtime close to linear time where possible.
- Prefer a pure function: no side effects beyond the return value.
Mini snippet (usage only)
// Example usage
const promises = /* implement promise.all input */;
const result = promiseAll(promises);
console.log(result);
// Edge case check
const empty = promises ?? null;
const fallback = promiseAll(promises);
console.log(fallback);
// Expected: describe output shape, not the implementation
// (no solution code in preview)Common pitfalls
- Mutating inputs instead of returning a new value.
- Skipping edge cases like empty input, duplicates, or nulls.
- Forgetting to await or return the Promise.
- Overlooking time complexity for large inputs.
