Who is the winner?

We did the most difficult thing: broke the game into components and wrote a game loop!

So far we can determine the winner of the game by looking at the list of game points in the console. We will make it so that the program determines the champion. We will write the code in several stages, checking the program at every step.

Create the getWinners function, which will receive an array of players, process it and determine the winners.

The task of finding the champion is similar to finding the maximum element in the array: we need to walk through the array of players and find the one who scored the most points. There is one difficulty here: there can be more than one winner, because in the course of the game, several cats can score the same number of points. What should we do in this case?

Let’s optimize the algorithm for finding the maximum element in the array so that all players with the most points are counted. To do this, we will create a winner array. Most often this array will consist of one element, but if there are several champions in the game, we will not offend anyone and record all the winners.

To start, we’ll enter an empty array, return it from getWinners and check that everything works.
