javascript push and remove from array code example

Example 1: remove a particular element from array

//remove car from the colors array
colors.splice(carIndex, 1); // colors = ["red","blue","green"]

Example 2: javascript function to add or remove from array if

function removeItemOnce(arr, value) {
  var index = arr.indexOf(value);
  if (index > -1) {
    arr.splice(index, 1);
  }
  return arr;
}

function removeItemAll(arr, value) {
  var i = 0;
  while (i < arr.length) {
    if (arr[i] === value) {
      arr.splice(i, 1);
    } else {
      ++i;
    }
  }
  return arr;
}
//Usage
console.log(removeItemOnce([2,5,9,1,5,8,5], 5))
console.log(removeItemAll([2,5,9,1,5,8,5], 5))

Example 3: remove element from array javascript

let numbers = [1,2,3,4]

// to remove last element
let last_num = numbers.pop();
// numbers will now be [1,2,3]

// to remove first element
let first_num = numbers.shift();
//numbers will now be [2,3]

// to remove at an index
let number_index = 1
let index_num = numbers.splice(number_index,1); //removes 1 element at index 1
//numbers will now be [2]

//these methods will modify the numbers array and return the removed element
