What is an Array?
An array is a special data structure in JavaScript used to store ordered collections of values. Arrays are incredibly useful for managing lists of items, such as numbers, strings, objects, or even other arrays.
Declaring an Array
There are two ways to create an empty array in JavaScript:
let arr = new Array();
let arr = [];
The second syntax, []
, is the most commonly used. You can also create an array with initial elements:
let items = ["Samosa", "Dosa", "Rasgulla"];
Each element in an array is assigned a numbered index, starting from 0
. You can access elements using square brackets:
console.log(items[0]); // Samosa
console.log(items[1]); // Dosa
console.log(items[2]); // Rasgulla
Modifying an Array
We can replace an element at a specific index:
items[2] = "Mishti Doi"; // now ["Samosa", "Dosa", "Mishti Doi"]
…Or add a new one to the array:
items[3] = "Pani Puri"; // now ["Samosa", "Dosa", "Mishti Doi", "Pani Puri"]
The total count of elements in the array is its length
, and we can get the length of the array using the .length
property.
let items = ["Samosa", "Dosa", "Rasgulla"];
console.log(items.length); // 3
In JavaScript, an array can store elements of any type.
For instance:
// mix of values
let arr = [
"Samosa",
{ name: "Raj" },
true,
function () {
console.log("Namaste");
},
]; // number, object, boolean, function here
// get the object at index 1 and then show its name
console.log(arr[1].name); // Raj
// get the function at index 3 and run it
arr[3](); // Namaste
Get Last Elements with .at()
Note: This is a recent addition to the language. Older browsers may require polyfills. (Polyfills are code snippets or libraries that provide modern functionality in browsers that do not support it natively.)
Let’s say we want to retrieve the last element of an array.
Some programming languages allow negative indexing for this purpose, like items[-1]
.
However, in JavaScript, this won’t work. The result will be undefined
because an index inside square brackets is treated literally.
Traditionally, we calculate the last element’s index explicitly and then access it:
let items = ['Samosa', 'Dosa', 'Rasgulla'];
console.log(items[items.length - 1]); // Rasgulla
This approach is slightly inconvenient since we have to write the variable name twice.
A shorter syntax is available: items.at
(-1)
:
let items = ['Samosa', 'Dosa', 'Rasgulla'];
console.log(items.at(-1)); // Rasgulla
In other words, arr.at
(i)
:
Works the same as
arr[i]
ifi >= 0
.For negative values of
i
, it accesses elements from the end of the array.
Internals of Arrays
An array in JavaScript is a special type of object. The square bracket notation, arr[0]
, is essentially the same as obj[key]
, where arr
is an object and numbers are used as keys.
Arrays extend objects by providing special methods for handling ordered collections of data, along with the length
property. However, at their core, arrays are still objects and behave like them.
Arrays Are Copied by Reference
For instance:
let items = ["Samosa"];
let arr = items; // Both variables reference the same array
arr.push("Dosa"); // Modify the array
console.log(items); // Output: [ "Samosa", "Dosa" ]
Optimizations and Misuse of Arrays
JavaScript engines optimize arrays by storing elements in a contiguous memory block. However, this optimization is lost if arrays are used like regular objects.
Examples of improper usage:
Adding non-numeric properties:
arr.test = 5
Creating large gaps:
arr[0]
andarr[1000]
(with nothing in between)Filling an array in reverse order
To maintain performance, always use arrays for ordered data. If you need arbitrary keys, use a regular object {}
instead.
Why Can't We Use ==
to Compare Arrays in JavaScript?
In JavaScript, arrays are objects, and the ==
operator does not compare objects by their contents. Instead, it checks whether they are the same reference in memory.
Key Rules to Remember:
- Two objects (including arrays) are only equal (
==
) if they are the same object in memory.
let a = [];
let b = [];
console.log(a == b); // false
- If one side of
==
is an object (like an array) and the other is a primitive (like a number or string), JavaScript converts the object to a primitive.
console.log(0 == []); // true
console.log('0' == []); // false
Here’s why:
The empty array
[]
is converted to an empty string (''
).Then JavaScript compares
0 == ''
, which is true (because''
converts to0
).But
'0' == ''
is false because they are two different strings.
How to Properly Compare Arrays?
Since ==
does not compare arrays element-by-element, the correct way to compare arrays is:
Use a loop to check each element manually.
Use array methods like
.every()
for comparison.
Example of correct array comparison:
function checkEqual(arr1, arr2) {
if (arr1.length !== arr2.length) {
return false;
}
return arr1.every((value, index) => value === arr2[index]);
}
console.log(checkEqual([1, 2, 3], [1, 2, 3])); // true
console.log(checkEqual([1, 2, 3
Array Methods: pop()
, push()
, shift()
, unshift()
Arrays in JavaScript can work as both queues and stacks, allowing elements to be added or removed from either the beginning or the end.
Queue (FIFO - First In, First Out)
A queue follows the FIFO principle, meaning the first added element is the first one to be removed.
push() → Adds an element to the end.
shift() → Removes an element from the beginning.
A common example is a queue of messages waiting to be displayed on a screen.
Stack (LIFO - Last In, First Out)
A stack follows the LIFO principle, meaning the last added element is the first one to be removed.
push() → Adds an element to the end.
pop() → Removes an element from the end.
A stack can be visualized like a pile of books—new books are added and removed from the top.
Methods for the End of an Array
pop() – Removes the last element and returns it
let items = ["Samosa", "Dosa", "Rasgulla"];
console.log(items.pop()); // Removes "Rasgulla"
console.log(items); // ["Samosa", "Dosa"]
push() – Adds an element to the end
let items = ["Samosa", "Dosa"];
items.push("Rasgulla");
console.log(items); // ["Samosa", "Dosa", "Rasgulla"]
Methods for the Beginning of an Array
shift() – Removes the first element and returns it
let items = ["Samosa", "Dosa", "Rasgulla"];
console.log(items.shift()); // Removes "Samosa"
console.log(items); // ["Dosa", "Rasgulla"]
unshift() – Adds an element to the beginning
let items = ["Dosa", "Rasgulla"];
items.unshift("Samosa");
console.log(items); // ["Samosa", "Dosa", "Rasgulla"]
Adding Multiple Elements at Once
Both push()
and unshift()
can add multiple elements:
let items = ["Samosa"];
items.push("Dosa", "Sandesh");
items.unshift("Chai", "Kachori");
console.log(items); // ["Chai", "Kachori", "Samosa", "Dosa", "Sandesh"]
In computer science, an array that supports adding/removing elements from both ends is called a deque (double-ended queue).
Performance
The push
and pop
methods are fast, while shift
and unshift
are slow.
Why is working with the end of an array faster than the beginning?
Let’s break it down with an example:
fruits.shift(); // Removes the first element
When shift
is used, it's not just about removing the first element. The following operations take place:
The element at index
0
is removed.All remaining elements are shifted left—index
1
becomes0
,2
becomes1
, and so on.The
length
property is updated.
The more elements an array has, the more time and memory this shifting process requires.
A similar issue occurs with unshift
, which adds an element to the beginning. Before inserting, all existing elements must be moved to the right, increasing their indexes.
Why are push
and pop
faster?
With push
and pop
, no shifting is needed.
For example:
fruits.pop(); // Removes the last element
Here’s what happens:
pop
simply removes the last element and updateslength
, without affecting the other indexes.push
just adds a new element at the end without modifying existing indexes.
Since these operations don’t involve shifting, they are much faster.
Array Method: flat()
The Array.flat()
method in JavaScript is used to create a new array by flattening nested arrays up to a specified depth. It removes nesting and returns a single-level array based on the provided depth.
Syntax:
array.flat(depth);
depth
(optional): The number of levels to flatten.Default value is
1
.If set to
Infinity
, it flattens all levels completely.
Example:
let arr = [1, [2, 3], [4, [5, 6]]];
let flatArr = arr.flat();
let flatArr2 = arr.flat(2);
console.log(flatArr); // [1, 2, 3, 4, [5, 6]]
console.log(flatArr2); // [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]
Flattening an Array Completely
If the depth is unknown, we can use Infinity
to flatten the array entirely:
let arr = [1, [2, 3], [4, [5, [6]]]];
let flatArr = arr.flat(Infinity);
console.log(flatArr); // [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]
Array Methods: .splice()
, slice()
, and concat()
splice
Arrays are objects, so using delete
on an array element leaves an empty slot, which isn't ideal:
let items = ["Samosa", "Dosa", "Rasgulla"];
delete items[1];
console.log(items); // ["Samosa", empty, "Rasgulla"]
console.log(items.length); // 3 (length remains unchanged)
Instead, use splice
, which removes, inserts, or replaces elements properly:
Syntax:
items.splice(start, optional delete count, elem1, elem2, ...);
start
→ Index where modification begins.deleteCount
→ Number of elements to remove. (Set to0
to insert only.)elem1, elem2, ...
→ Elements to insert atstart
.
Examples:
Remove elements:
let items = ["Samosa", "Dosa", "Rasgulla"];
items.splice(1, 1); // Removes 1 element at index 1
console.log(items); // ["Samosa", "Rasgulla"]
Replace elements:
let items = ["Samosa", "Dosa", "Rasgulla", "Sandesh"];
items.splice(0, 2, "Chai", "Kachori");
console.log(items); // ["Chai", "Kachori", "Rasgulla", "Sandesh"]
Get removed elements:
let removed = items.splice(1, 2);
console.log(removed); // ["Kachori", "Rasgulla"]
Insert without deleting:
let items = ["Chai", "Sandesh"];
items.splice(1, 0, "Dhokla", "Pav Bhaji");
console.log(items); // ["Chai", "Dhokla", "Pav Bhaji", "Sandesh"]
slice
Unlike splice
, slice
does not modify the original array; instead, it returns a shallow copy of a portion of the array.
Syntax:
items.slice(Optional start, Optional end);
start
→ Index at which to begin extraction. (Optional, defaults to0
)end
→ Index before which to stop extraction (not included). (Optional, defaults to the array length)
Examples
Extract a portion
The slice
method extracts a section of an array without modifying the original array.
let items = ["Samosa", "Dosa", "Rasgulla", "Kachori", "Sandesh"];
let sweets = items.slice(2, 4);
console.log(sweets); // ["Rasgulla", "Kachori"]
Copy the entire array
We can create a shallow copy of an array by calling slice()
without arguments.
let items = ['Samosa', 'Dosa', 'Rasgulla', 'Kachori', 'Sandesh'];
let copy = items.slice();
console.log(copy); // ["Samosa", "Dosa", "Rasgulla", "Kachori", "Sandesh"]
Using negative indices
We can use negative indices to extract elements from the end of the array.
let items = ['Samosa', 'Dosa', 'Rasgulla', 'Kachori', 'Sandesh'];
console.log(items.slice(-4, -1)); // ['Dosa', 'Rasgulla', 'Kachori']
Modifying the copied array does not affect the original
Since slice
creates a shallow copy
, changes to the copied array do not modify the original array.
let items = ['Samosa', 'Dosa', 'Rasgulla'];
let copy = items.slice();
copy[0] = 'Paratha';
console.log(items); // Still: ['Samosa', 'Dosa', 'Rasgulla']
concat
The concat
method is used to merge two or more arrays. It does not modify the original arrays but returns a new array containing elements from the provided arrays.
Syntax:
let newArray = array1.concat(array2, array3, ...);
array1, array2, ...
→ Arrays (or values) to merge into a new array.Returns a new array without modifying the originals.
Examples
Merging two arrays:
let sweets = ["Rasgulla", "Kachori"];
let snacks = ["Samosa", "Dhokla"];
let food = sweets.concat(snacks);
console.log(food); // ["Rasgulla", "Kachori", "Samosa", "Dhokla"]
Merging multiple arrays:
let sweets = ["Rasgulla", "Kachori"];
let snacks = ["Samosa", "Dhokla"];
let drinks = ["Chai", "Lassi"];
let combined = sweets.concat(snacks, drinks);
console.log(combined);
// ["Rasgulla", "Kachori", "Samosa", "Dhokla", "Chai", "Lassi"]
Concatenating values:
You can also pass individual values in addition to arrays.
let sweets = ["Rasgulla", "Kachori"];
let foodWithExtras = sweets.concat("Pav Bhaji", ["Pani Puri", "Bhel Puri"]);
console.log(foodWithExtras);
// ["Rasgulla", "Kachori", "Pav Bhaji", "Pani Puri", "Bhel Puri"]
Original arrays remain unchanged:
Since concat
returns a new array, the original arrays remain unmodified.
console.log(sweets); // ["Rasgulla", "Kachori"]
console.log(snacks); // ["Samosa", "Dhokla"]
Array Methods: toString()
The toString()
method converts an array into a string of comma-separated values.
Example:
let items = ["Samosa", "Dosa", "Rasgulla"];
console.log(items.toString()); // "Samosa,Dosa,Rasgulla"
Understanding Implicit Conversion with +
Operator
Let’s examine how JavaScript converts arrays to strings when using the +
operator:
console.log([] + 1); // "1"
console.log([1] + 1); // "11"
console.log([1, 2] + 1); // "1,21"
When the binary plus (+
) operator is used with an array, JavaScript first converts the array to a string before concatenation.
[].toString()
→""
, so"" + 1
→"1"
[1].toString()
→"1"
, so"1" + 1
→"11"
[1, 2].toString()
→"1,2"
, so"1,2" + 1
→"1,21"
Array Methods: every()
and some()
.every()
The Array.every()
method in JavaScript is used to check whether all elements of an array satisfy a given condition. It returns true
only if every element passes the test; otherwise, it returns false
. If at least one element fails the condition, the result is false
.
Syntax:
array.every((element, index, array) => {/*...*/});
Example:
let oddNumbers = [1, 3, 5, 7, 9];
let isOdd = oddNumbers.every(number => number % 2 !== 0);
console.log(isOdd); // true
.some()
The Array.some()
method in JavaScript is used to check whether at least one element in an array satisfies a given condition. It returns true
if at least one element meets the condition; otherwise, it returns false
.
Syntax:
array.some((element, index, array) => {/*...*/});
Example:
let numbers = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5];
let hasOdd = numbers.some(number => number % 2 !== 0);
console.log(hasOdd); // true
Key Differences:
every()
checks if all elements pass the condition; if one fails, it returnsfalse
.some()
checks if at least one element passes the condition; if none do, it returnsfalse
.
Array Methods: Iteration with forEach()
The forEach()
method allows executing a function on each element of an array.
Syntax:
arr.forEach(function(item, index, array) {
// Perform an operation on item
});
Example
- Basic Iteration
let items = ['Samosa', 'Dosa', 'Rasgulla'];
items.forEach(item => {
console.log(item);
});
Output:
Samosa
Dosa
Rasgulla
- Accessing Index and Full Array
let items = ['Samosa', 'Dosa', 'Rasgulla'];
items.forEach((item, index, array) => {
console.log(
`The item "${item}" is at index ${index} in the array [${array}].`
);
});
Output:
The item "Samosa" is at index 0 in the array [Samosa,Dosa,Rasgulla].
The item "Dosa" is at index 1 in the array [Samosa,Dosa,Rasgulla].
The item "Rasgulla" is at index 2 in the array [Samosa,Dosa,Rasgulla].
Array Methods: Searching with indexOf()
, lastIndexOf()
, and includes()
These methods are used to search for elements in an array.
indexOf()
The
indexOf()
method returns the first index of a specified element in an array. If the element is not found, it returns-1
.indexOf()
uses strict equality (===
) for comparison. So, if we look forfalse
, it finds exactlyfalse
and not0
.
Syntax:
arr.indexOf(element, fromIndex);
element
: The value to search for.fromIndex
(optional): The index to start the search from. Default is0
.
Example:
let arr = [1, 0, false, 'Samosa', 'Dosa', 'Rasgulla', 'Dosa'];
console.log(arr.indexOf(0)); // 1
console.log(arr.indexOf(false)); // 2
console.log(arr.indexOf(null)); // -1 (Not found)
console.log(arr.indexOf('Dosa', 5)); // 6 (Search starts from index 5)
lastIndexOf()
The
lastIndexOf()
method returns the last index of a specified element in an array. If the element is not found, it returns-1
.It searches the array backward, starting from the specified
fromIndex
.
Syntax:
arr.lastIndexOf(element, fromIndex);
element
: The value to search for.fromIndex
(optional): The index to start the search from (searching backward). Default isarr.length - 1
.
Example:
let items = ['Samosa', 'Dosa', 'Rasgulla', 'Dosa'];
console.log(items.lastIndexOf('Dosa')); // 3
console.log(items.lastIndexOf('Kachori')); // -1 (Not found)
console.log(items.lastIndexOf('Dosa', 2)); // 1 (Search ends at index 2)
includes()
The
includes()
method checks whether an array contains a specified element. It returnstrue
if found, otherwisefalse
.Unlike
indexOf()
, it does not return an index—only a boolean value.
Syntax:
arr.includes(element, fromIndex);
element
: The value to search for.fromIndex
(optional): The index to start the search from. Default is0
.
Example:
let items = ['Samosa', 'Dosa', 'Rasgulla'];
console.log(items.includes('Dosa')); // true
console.log(items.includes('Kachori')); // false
console.log(items.includes('Dosa', 2)); // false (Search starts at index 2)
Array Methods: Searching with a Condition using find()
, findIndex()
, findLastIndex()
, and filter
These methods allow searching for elements based on a condition, rather than a strict match.
find()
The
find()
method returns the first element in an array that satisfies a given condition.If no element meets the condition, it returns
undefined
.
Syntax:
arr.find(callback(element, index, array));
callback
: A function that defines the search condition.The function takes three parameters:
element
: The current array element.index
(optional): The index of the current element.array
(optional): The array being searched.
Example:
let numbers = [10, 20, 30, 40, 50];
let result = numbers.find(num => num > 25);
console.log(result); // 30 (first element greater than 25)
findIndex()
The
findIndex()
method returns the index of the first element that satisfies the given condition.If no element is found, it returns
-1
.
Syntax:
arr.findIndex(callback(element, index, array));
Example:
let numbers = [10, 20, 30, 40, 50];
let index = numbers.findIndex(num => num > 25);
console.log(index); // 2 (index of first element greater than 25)
findLastIndex()
(ES2023+)
The
findLastIndex()
method is similar tofindIndex()
, but it searches from the end of the array.It returns the index of the last element that matches the condition or
-1
if not found.
Syntax:
arr.findLastIndex(callback(element, index, array));
Example:
let numbers = [10, 20, 30, 40, 50];
let index = numbers.findLastIndex(num => num > 25);
console.log(index); // 4 (last index of element greater than 25)
filter()
– Finding All Matches ⭐⭐
The
find()
method returns only the first matching element.If multiple elements satisfy the condition, use
filter()
, which returns all matching elements as an array.
Syntax:
let results = arr.filter(callback(element, index, array));
The syntax is similar to
find()
, but instead of returning a single element,filter()
returns an array of all matching elements.If no elements match, it returns an empty array.
Example:
let numbers = [10, 15, 20, 25, 30];
// Finding all odd numbers in the array
let oddNumbers = numbers.filter(num => num % 2 !== 0);
console.log(oddNumbers); // [15, 25]
Array Methods: Transform using map()
⭐⭐
The arr.map
()
method is one of the most useful and frequently used array methods.
It calls a function for each element of the array and returns a new array containing the results.
The original array remains unchanged.
Syntax:
let result = arr.map(function(item, index, array) {
// Returns the new value instead of the item
});
Example:
Here, we double each number in the array:
let numbers = [10, 15, 20, 25, 30];
const output = numbers.map(num => num * 2);
console.log(output); // [20, 30, 40, 50, 60]
console.log(numbers); // [10, 15, 20, 25, 30] (original array remains unchanged)
Array Methods: reduce()
⭐⭐
The reduce()
method is a powerful array method used to process all elements of an array and return a single accumulated result.
It executes a callback function on each element of the array, passing the accumulated result from the previous iteration.
It is often used for sum, product, finding maximum/minimum values, and other cumulative computations.
Syntax:
let result = arr.reduce(function(accumulator, current, index, array) {
// Process each element and return the updated accumulator
}, initialValue);
accumulator
: The running total or accumulated result.current
: The current array element.index
(optional): The index of the current element.array
(optional): The array being processed.initialValue
: The starting value of the accumulator (optional but recommended).
Example:
Let's first use a for
loop and then achieve the same result using reduce()
.
Sum of Numbers
// Using for loop
const numbers = [5, 1, 3, 2, 6];
let sum = 0;
for (let i = 0; i < numbers.length; i++) {
sum += numbers[i];
}
console.log(sum); // 17
//----------------
// Using reduce()
const numbers = [5, 1, 3, 2, 6];
const sum = numbers.reduce(function (acc, curr) {
// acc = sum in for loop
// curr = numbers[i]
return acc + curr;
}, 0); // 0 is the initial value, similar to sum = 0 in the for loop
console.log(sum); // 17
Finding the Maximum Value
// Using for loop
const numbers = [5, 1, 3, 2, 6];
let max = numbers[0];
for (let i = 1; i < numbers.length; i++) {
if (numbers[i] > max) {
max = numbers[i];
}
}
console.log(max); // 6
//----------------
// Using reduce()
const numbers = [5, 1, 3, 2, 6];
const max = numbers.reduce(function (acc, curr) {
return curr > acc ? curr : acc;
}, numbers[0]);
console.log(max); // 6
Key Points:
reduce()
does not modify the original array.The initial value is crucial when dealing with empty arrays to prevent errors.
It can be used for various operations, including sum, multiplication, flattening arrays, grouping elements, and more.
Polyfills for map()
, filter()
, and reduce()
Polyfill for map()
Array.prototype.myMap = function (cb) {
let temp = [];
for (let i = 0; i < this.length; i++) {
temp.push(cb(this[i], i, this));
}
return temp;
};
const arr = [1, 2, 3, 4];
let output = arr.myMap(x => x * 2);
console.log(output); // [2, 4, 6, 8]
Polyfill for filter()
Array.prototype.myFilter = function (cb) {
let temp = [];
for (let i = 0; i < this.length; i++) {
if (cb(this[i], i, this)) temp.push(this[i]);
}
return temp;
};
const arr = [1, 2, 3, 4];
let output = arr.myFilter(x => x % 2 === 0);
console.log(output); // [2, 4]
Polyfill for reduce()
Array.prototype.myReduce = function (cb, initialValue) {
let accumulator = initialValue;
for (let i = 0; i < this.length; i++) {
accumulator = accumulator !== undefined ? cb(accumulator, this[i], i, this) : this[i];
}
return accumulator;
};
const arr = [1, 2, 3, 4];
let output = arr.myReduce((acc, curr) => acc + curr, 0);
console.log(output); // 10
Difference Between map
and forEach
in JavaScript
1. Return Value
map
returns a new array with the modified values, whereasforEach
returnsundefined
.const arr = [2, 3, 5, 4, 7]; const mapResult = arr.map(ar => { return ar * 2; }); const forEachResult = arr.forEach(ar => { return ar * 2; }); console.log(mapResult); // Output: [ 4, 6, 10, 8, 14 ] (New array) console.log(forEachResult); // Output: undefined
2. Modification of Original Array
map
does not modify the original array; instead, it creates a new array.forEach
, on the other hand, modifies the original array when elements are reassigned.arr.forEach((ar, i) => { arr[i] = ar + 3; }); console.log(arr); // Output: [ 5, 6, 8, 7, 10 ] (Original array modified)
3. Method Chaining
map
returns an array, allowing method chaining (e.g.,.filter()
,.reduce()
, etc.).forEach
does not return an array, so method chaining is not possible.const mapChaining = arr .map(ar => { return ar + 2; }) .filter(x => x >= 6); console.log(mapChaining); // Output: New filtered array based on conditions
