Getting sum of an string array javascript

I have a text file:

2|BATH BENCH|19.00
20312100000|ORANGE BELL|1.42
04525514840|BOILER ONION|1.78

I need to find the summation of the price which is (19.00,1.42,1.78) and print it in the console.

var FilePath = process.argv[2];
var allUpcs = [];
var subtotal = 0;

const fs = require('fs');
const readline = require('readline');

const file = readline.createInterface({
input: fs.createReadStream(FilePath),
output: process.stdout,
terminal: false
});

file.on('line', (line) => {
allUpcs.push(line.split('|')[2]).map(Number);

var subtotal = allUpcs.reduce(function(pv, cv) { return pv + cv; }, 0);
});

file.on('close', function() {
console.log(subtotal = allUpcs.reduce(function(pv, cv) { return pv + cv; }, 0));
});

I am not getting the correct output, getting it as Subtotal 019.001.421.78.

Can anyone please help? Thanks.

You're not using the result of the map anywhere, so you're still just pushing a string into the array, then discarding the result of map.

Use this instead:

allUpcs.push(parseFloat(line.split('|')[2]));
