what does slice do in javascript code example
Example 1: javascript slice array
// array.slice(start, end)
const FRUITS = ["Banana", "Orange", "Lemon", "Apple", "Mango"];
var citrus = FRUITS.slice(1, 3);
// citrus => [ 'Orange', 'Lemon' ]
// Negative values slice in the opposite direction
var fromTheEnd = FRUITS.slice(-3, -1);
// fromTheEnd => [ 'Lemon', 'Apple' ]
Example 2: javascript slice
//The slice() method extracts a section of a string and returns
//it as a new string, without modifying the original string.
// same in array but you select elements not characters
const str = 'The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.';
console.log(str.slice(31));
// expected output: "the lazy dog."
console.log(str.slice(4, 19));
// expected output: "quick brown fox"
console.log(str.slice(-4));
// expected output: "dog."
console.log(str.slice(-9, -5));
// expected output: "lazy"
console.log(str.slice(0, 2));
// expected output: "the"
// Up to and including the last index!!!
// Different for python.
Example 3: slice()
/"slice() copies or extracts a given number of elements to a new array"/
let weatherConditions = ['rain', 'snow', 'sleet', 'hail', 'clear'];
let todaysWeather = weatherConditions.slice(1, 3);
// todaysWeather equals ['snow', 'sleet'];
// weatherConditions still equals ['rain', 'snow', 'sleet', 'hail', 'clear']
Example 4: js slice
const arr=[1,2,3,4,5];
const slicedArr = arr.slice(1,4); // slicedArr = [2,3,4]
Example 5: js slice
//The slice() method extracts a section of a string and returns
//it as a new string, without modifying the original string.
// same in array but you select elements not characters
const str = 'The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.';
console.log(str.slice(31));
// expected output: "the lazy dog."
console.log(str.slice(4, 19));
// expected output: "quick brown fox"
console.log(str.slice(-4));
// expected output: "dog."
console.log(str.slice(-9, -5));
// expected output: "lazy"
Example 6: js copy part of array
// The slice function copies parts of an array and
// do therefore not change the default array
let arr = ["apple", "kiwi", "banana", "pear"];
let newArray = arr.slice(1, 2)
console.log(newArray); // output : kiwi
