splice(indexOf()) code example

Example 1: remove element from array javascript

let fruit = ['apple', 'banana', 'orange', 'lettuce']; 
// ^^ An example array that needs to have one item removed

fruit.splice(3, 1); // Removes an item in the array using splice() method
// First argument is the index of removal
// Second argument is the amount of items to remove from that index and on

Example 2: splice from array

let myFish = ['angel', 'clown', 'mandarin', 'sturgeon']
let removed = myFish.splice(2, 0, 'drum')

// myFish is ["angel", "clown", "drum", "mandarin", "sturgeon"] 
// removed is [], no elements removed
