const indexOfLowestNumber=arr=>arr.indexOf(Math.min.apply(null,arr))
console.log( indexOfLowestNumber ([2,2,4,5,1])) // -> 4

Thank you for your contribution. I ran the performance tests (gist.github.com/ac1df98815e154b99f...) and you solution is about 5 times faster. Amazing. I adjusted the code in the article.

Cheers!
