Essential Array Methods for Front-End Developers

Most common array methods are ,

  1. forEach: Executes a provided function once for each array element.

const array = [1, 2, 3]; array.forEach(element => console.log(element));

  1. map: Creates a new array with the results of calling a provided function on every element in the calling array.

const array = [1, 2, 3]; const newArray = array.map(element => element * 2); console.log(newArray); // Output: [2, 4, 6]

  1. filter: Creates a new array with all elements that pass the test implemented by the provided function.

const array = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]; const newArray = array.filter(element => element % 2 === 0); console.log(newArray); // Output: [2, 4]

  1. reduce: Executes a reducer function on each element of the array, resulting in a single output value.

const array = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]; const sum = array.reduce((accumulator, currentValue) => accumulator + currentValue, 0); console.log(sum); // Output: 15

  1. find: Returns the value of the first element in the array that satisfies the provided testing function.

const array = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]; const found = array.find(element => element > 3); console.log(found); // Output: 4

  1. some: Tests whether at least one element in the array passes the test implemented by the provided function.

const array = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]; const hasEven = array.some(element => element % 2 === 0); console.log(hasEven); // Output: true

  1. every: Tests whether all elements in the array pass the test implemented by the provided function.

const array = [2, 4, 6, 8, 10]; const allEven = array.every(element => element % 2 === 0); console.log(allEven); // Output: true

These methods provide powerful ways to manipulate arrays in JavaScript and are commonly used in front-end development.
