how to make a filter return the object rather than array code example

Example 1: filter in js

const filterThisArray = ["a","b","c","d","e"] 
console.log(filterThisArray) // Array(5) [ "a","b","c","d","e" ]

const filteredThatArray = filterThisArray.filter((item) => item!=="e")
console.log(filteredThatArray) // Array(4) [ "a","b","c","d" ]

Example 2: does filter change original array

Note: filter() does not change the original array.
