Example 1: array.slice
const animals = ['ant', 'bison', 'camel', 'duck', 'elephant'];
console.log(animals.slice(2));
// expected output: Array ["camel", "duck", "elephant"]
console.log(animals.slice(2, 4));
// expected output: Array ["camel", "duck"]
console.log(animals.slice(1, 5));
// expected output: Array ["bison", "camel", "duck", "elephant"]
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: slice method in js
// 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 5: slice in javascript
JavaScript Array slice() Method The slice() method returns the selected elements in an array, as a new array object. The slice() method selects the elements starting at the given start argument, and ends at, but does not include, the given end argument. Note: The original array will not be changed.
