javascript remove an item from an array code example

Example 1: remove a particular element from array

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

Example 2: remove item from array javascript

const array = [2, 5, 9];

console.log(array);

const index = array.indexOf(5);
if (index > -1) {
  array.splice(index, 1);
}

// array = [2, 9]
console.log(array);

Example 3: remove array elements javascript

let forDeletion = [2, 3, 5]

let arr = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 3]

arr = arr.filter(item => !forDeletion.includes(item))
// !!! Read below about array.includes(...) support !!!

console.log(arr)
// [ 1, 4 ]

Example 4: js array delete specific element

var arr = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 0];
var removed = arr.splice(2,2);
/*
removed === [3, 4]
arr === [1, 2, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 0]
*/

Example 5: js array delete specific element

var array = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 0];
var filtered = array.filter(function(value, index, arr){
    return value > 5;
});
//filtered => [6, 7, 8, 9]
//array => [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 0]
