array destructure javascript es6 code example

Example 1: destructuring arrays with rest operator

// Rest operator on Arrays;
// It's usually shown as ...rest
// but you can name this what you like
// Think of it as "get the ...rest of the array"
const [q, r, ...callThisAnythingYouWant] = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8];

console.log(q, r); // 1 2
console.log(callThisAnythingYouWant); // [ 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 ]

Example 2: javascript object destructuring

//simple example with object------------------------------
let obj = {name: 'Max', age: 22, address: 'Delhi'};
const {name, age} = obj;

console.log(name);
//expected output: "Max"

console.log(age);
//expected output: 22

console.log(address);
//expected output: Uncaught ReferenceError: address is not defined

// simple example with array-------------------------------
let a, b, rest;
[a, b] = [10, 20];

console.log(a);
// expected output: 10

console.log(b);
// expected output: 20

[a, b, ...rest] = [10, 20, 30, 40, 50];

console.log(rest);
// expected output: Array [30,40,50]
