split array to multiple arrays javascript code example

Example 1: javascript split array into chuncks of

function splitArrayIntoChunksOfLen(arr, len) {
  var chunks = [], i = 0, n = arr.length;
  while (i < n) {
    chunks.push(arr.slice(i, i += len));
  }
  return chunks;
}
var alphabet=['a','b','c','d','e','f'];
var alphabetPairs=splitArrayIntoChunksOfLen(alphabet,2); //split into chunks of two

Example 2: js split array into smaller arrays

Array.prototype.chunk = function(n) {
  if (!this.length) {
    return [];
  }
  return [this.slice(0, n)].concat(this.slice(n).chunk(n));
};
console.log([1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15].chunk(5));
