Script Preparation code:

var data = [
  { name: 'pi', value: 3.14 },
  { name: 'hundred', value: 100 },
  { name: 'truthy', value: true },
  { name: 'falsy', value: false },
  { name: 'estring', value: '2.71828' },
];

var partitionBy = (arr, key) => Object.values(arr.reduce((acc, item) => {
    var _a;
    return (Object.assign(Object.assign({}, acc), { [String(item[key])]: [...((_a = acc[String(item[key])]) !== null && _a !== void 0 ? _a : []), item] }));
}, {}));

var partitionByForEach = (array, fn) => {
  var acc = {};
  _.forEach(array, (value) => {
    acc[fn(value)] = value;
  });
  return Object.values(acc);
};

var partitionByForLoop = (array, fn) => {
  var acc = {};
  for (let i = 0; i < array.length; i++) {
    acc[fn(array[i])] = array[i];
  }
  return Object.values(acc);
};
