/**
 * The [product](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Product_(mathematics)) of an array
 * is the result of multiplying all numbers together, starting using one as the multiplicative identity.
 *
 * This runs in `O(n)`, linear time, with respect to the length of the array.
 *
 * @param {Array<number>} x input
 * @return {number} product of all input numbers
 * @example
 * product([1, 2, 3, 4]); // => 24
