map js is it es6 code example

Example 1: map in javascript

// Use map to create a new array in memory. Don't use if you're not returning
const arr = [1,2,3,4]

// Get squares of each element
const sqrs = arr.map((num) => num ** 2)
console.log(sqrs)
// [ 1, 4, 9, 16 ]

//Original array untouched
console.log(arr)
// [ 1, 2, 3, 4 ]

Example 2: map()

The map() method creates a new array populated with the results of calling 
a provided function on every element in the calling array.

const array1 = [1, 4, 9, 16];

// pass a function to map
const map1 = array1.map(x => x * 2);

console.log(map1);
// expected output: Array [2, 8, 18, 32]
