Benchmark: lodash vs es6 - filter then includes method

HTML Preparation code:

<script src='https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/lodash.js/4.17.5/lodash.min.js'></script>

Script Preparation code:

var array = [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9];

Tests:

lodash filter then includes method
var result = _.chain(array).filter(n => n > 5).includes(5);
es6 filter then includes method
var result = array.filter(n => n > 5).includes(5);

Let's break down the provided benchmark definition and test cases to understand what is being tested.

**Benchmark Definition:**

The benchmark compares the performance of two approaches:

1. **Lodash**: A popular JavaScript utility library that provides a lot of useful functions for tasks like array manipulation, string manipulation, and more.
2. **ES6 Filter and Includes Methods**: The native JavaScript methods `Array.prototype.filter()` and `Array.prototype.includes()` are being compared.

**Script Preparation Code:**
```javascript
var array = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9];
```
This creates a sample array of numbers for the benchmark.

**Html Preparation Code:**
```html
<script src='https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/lodash.js/4.17.5/lodash.min.js'></script>
```
This includes the Lodash library in the HTML file.

**Test Cases:**

There are two individual test cases:

1. **Lodash Filter then Includes Method**

Benchmark definition:
```javascript
var result = _.chain(array).filter(n => n > 5).includes(5);
```
This uses the `_.chain()` method from Lodash to create a new chain of operations, followed by `filter()`, and finally `includes()`.

2. **ES6 Filter then Includes Method**

Benchmark definition:
```javascript
var result = array.filter(n => n > 5).includes(5);
```
This uses the native JavaScript methods `Array.prototype.filter()` and `Array.prototype.includes()` directly on the sample array.

**Pros and Cons of Each Approach:**

1. **Lodash**
	* Pros:
		+ Provides a lot of useful utility functions.
		+ Can be more readable for complex operations.
	* Cons:
		+ Requires an additional library dependency (Lodash).
		+ May introduce overhead due to the library's functionality.
2. **ES6 Filter and Includes Methods**
	* Pros:
		+ Native JavaScript methods, so no additional library dependencies.
		+ Typically faster since they are implemented in native code.
	* Cons:
		+ May require more boilerplate code for complex operations.
		+ Less readable for some developers.

**Library:**

Lodash is a popular JavaScript utility library that provides a lot of useful functions for tasks like array manipulation, string manipulation, and more. It can be used to simplify code and improve readability.

**Special JS Feature/Syntax:**

There are no special JavaScript features or syntax being tested in this benchmark. The focus is on comparing the performance of using Lodash versus native JavaScript methods.

**Other Considerations:**

* The benchmark uses a sample array of numbers, which may not be representative of all use cases.
* The number of executions per second is used as the metric to measure performance.
* There are two test cases with slightly different implementations.

**Alternatives:**

If you want to compare other JavaScript libraries or utility functions, you can modify the benchmark definition and script preparation code. Some alternatives could be:

* Other popular JavaScript libraries like Moment.js (for date manipulation) or jQuery (for DOM manipulation).
* Built-in JavaScript methods like `Array.prototype.map()`, `Array.prototype.reduce()`, or `String.prototype.split()`.
* Alternative utility libraries like Underscore.js, Ramda.js, or Immutable.js.
