Instance Properties
Search or run test on array
[1,2,2,3].indexOf(2); // 1
[1,2,2,3].lastIndexOf(2); // 2
[1,2,2,3].filter(n => n === 2); // [2,2]
[1,2,2,3].find(n => n === 2); // 2
[1,2,2,3].findIndex(n => n % 2 === 0); // 1
[1,2,2,3].every(n => n % 2 === 0); // false
[1,2,2,3].some(n => n % 2 === 0); // true
[1,2,2,3].includes(4); // false
Loop through array
for (const value of [4,5,6].values())
console.log(value); // 4 → 5 → 6
for (const [i,n] of [4,5,6].entries())
console.log(i,n); // 0 4 → 1 5 → 2 6
[4,5,6].forEach((n,i) => console.log(i,n)); // 0 4 → 1 5 → 2 6
[4,5,6].reduce((acc,cur) => acc + cur, 0); // 15
[4,5,6].map(n => n + 1); // [5,6,7]
[4,5,6].flatMap(n => [n + 1]); // [5,6,7]
[4,5,6].flatMap(n => [[n + 1]]); // [[5],[6],[7]]
Return new array
[1,2,3].concat([4]); // [1,2,3,4]
[1,2,3].join(' + '); // '1 + 2 + 3'
[1,2,3].slice(1,2); // [2]
[1,2,3].slice(); // [1,2,3]
[1,2,3].toString(); // '1,2,3'
[1,2,[3,4]].flat(); // [1,2,3,4]
[1,2,[[3,4]]].flat(1); // [1,2,[3,4]]
[1,2,[[3,4]]].flat(2); // [1,2,3,4]
Modify original array
[1,2,3,4].copyWithin(2,0); // [1,2,1,2]
[1,2,3].splice(1,2); // [2,3]
[1,2,3].reverse(); // [3,2,1]
[1,2,3].fill(4); // [4,4,4]
[1,2,3].pop(); // [1,2]
[1,2,3].push(4); // [1,2,3,4]
[1,2,3].shift(); // 1
[1,2,3].unshift(4); // 4
[2,3,1].sort(); // [1,2,3]
Explanations
In these examples, i refers to an index.
Array.from(iter) creates array from an iterable object Array.isArray(arr) checks for an array Array.of(arr) creates a new array with provided array [].indexOf(elem) returns index of first instance of elem in array, or -1 [].lastIndexOf(elem) returns index of last instance of elem in array, or -1 [].filter(fn) returns array of elements that satisfy our fn test [].find(fn) returns element in the array that satisfies our fn test, or undefined [].findIndex(fn) returns index of the first element that satisfies our fn test, or -1 [].every(fn) checks if every element in the array satisfies our fn test [].some(fn) checks if at least one element in the array satisfies our fn test [].includes(elem) checks if array contains elem [].values() returns an iterator to loop over elements in array [].entries() returns an iterator to loop over index/element pairs in array [].forEach(fn) executes fn once for each element [].reduce(fn) reduce values of an array to a single value [].map(fn) creates new array by calling a fn for each element [].flatMap() runs map() followed by flat(1) [].concat(arr) joins 2 arrays [].join(str) joins all elements of an array into a string delimited by str [].slice(i1,i2) returns new array from [i1, i1+i2) [].slice() copies an array [].toString() converts array to string [].flat(n) flattens all sub-array elements up to a specified, zero-indexed depth n [].copyWithin(i1, i2) copies sequence of elements from i2 to the end to index i1 onward [].splice(i,n) starting from i, removes n elements and returns the modified array [].reverse() reverses order of the array [].fill(elem) fills all elements with elem [].pop() removes and returns last element of array [].push(elem) adds elem to end of array and returns length [].shift() removes and returns first element of array [].unshift(elem) adds elem to beginning of array and returns length [].sort() sorts an array
