return element in array javascript code example

Example 1: javascript find object by property in array

// To find a specific object in an array of objects
myObj = myArrayOfObjects.find(obj => obj.prop === 'something');

Example 2: array find

const array1 = [5, 12, 8, 130, 44];

const found = array1.find(element => element > 10);

console.log(found);
// expected output: 12

Example 3: return array javascript

function func() {
  return [5, "string", {a: 7}];
}

Example 4: array from js

//Array.from() lets you create Arrays from array-like objects
//(objects with a length property and indexed elements);
//and also:

//More clearly, Array.from(obj, mapFn, thisArg)
//has the same result as Array.from(obj).map(mapFn, thisArg), 
//except that it does not create an intermediate array.
//Basically, it's a declaration that overrides the length property of the method
//(so that it has to be used with the same name length),
//setting it with the same value of the given variable. 
//The values are still undefined, it's just a different notation. Take a look:

console.log(Array.from(length, (_,i) => i));
// It doesn't works with non-iterables
// In this case we are passing an integer

console.log(Array.from({LENGTH}, (_,i) => i));
// It doesn't work with a property name different from "length"

console.log(Array.from({length}, (_,i) => i));
// It works because overrides the .length property of the array
// The method Array.from() assumes that the property...
// ...is referring to an iterable (also if not declared) 

console.log(Array.from(Array(length), (_,i) => i));
// This is the demonstration of the above assertion
// In this case we are using a declared array through...
// ...an instance of the straight method Array()...
// ...that accepts an integer as value

//in case any one reads this a got this from er0s in edabit

Example 5: find in js

The first element that will be found by that function
const f = array1.find(e => e > 10);
