map.entries() doesn't return an array

[wnleao]

In https://javascript.info/map-set 1-js/05-data-types/07-map-set there is the following excerpt:

A call to map.entries() returns an array of key/value pairs, exactly in the right format for Object.fromEntries.

However, map.entries() returns an iterable. Should it not be correct to say it instead of "returns an array"?

Actually, you could easily convert a map/set into an array using the spread operator:

let arr = [...map];

let arr = [...set];

I don't know if you think that would be relevant for that lesson. I would think so, because this way you can go from a map/set to an array and use whatever function you want, like: reduce, map, etc.

The exercise "Iterable keys" kind of hints at that as you would have to call Array.from().
