javascript array remove element index code example

Example 1: remove an element from array

var colors = ["red", "blue", "car","green"];

// op1: with direct arrow function
colors = colors.filter(data => data != "car");

// op2: with function return value
colors = colors.filter(function(data) { return data != "car"});

Example 2: remove element from array javascript

let numbers = [1,2,3,4]

// to remove last element
let last_num = numbers.pop();
// numbers will now be [1,2,3]

// to remove first element
let first_num = numbers.shift();
//numbers will now be [2,3]

// to remove at an index
let number_index = 1
let index_num = numbers.splice(number_index,1); //removes 1 element at index 1
//numbers will now be [2]

//these methods will modify the numbers array and return the removed element
