how to shift elements in an array javascript code example

Example 1: moving a item fro index to another index, javascript

function arraymove(arr, fromIndex, toIndex) {
    var element = arr[fromIndex];
    arr.splice(fromIndex, 1);
    arr.splice(toIndex, 0, element);
}

Example 2: array shift javascript

//The shift() method removes the first element from an array 
//and returns that removed element. 
//This method changes the length of the array.

const array1 = [1, 2, 3];
const firstElement = array1.shift();
console.log(array1);
// expected output: Array [2, 3]
console.log(firstElement);
// expected output: 1
