Learn JavaScript - Arrays Cheatsheet - Codecademy

Arrays in JavaScript can contain elements of any data type. Elements are accessed by their numeric index, starting from 0. The .length property returns the number of elements in an array. Elements can be added to the end of an array using the .push() method or removed from the end using the .pop() method. Though declared with const, arrays are mutable, meaning their contents can be changed.

Arrays
Property .length
The .length property of a JavaScript array indicates the
number of elements the array contains. const numbers = [1, 2, 3, 4];

numbers.length // 4

Index
Array elements are arranged by index values, starting at
0 as the rst element index. Elements can be accessed // Accessing an array element
by their index using the array name, and the index const myArray = [100, 200, 300];
surrounded by square brackets.

console.log(myArray[0]); // 100
console.log(myArray[1]); // 200
console.log(myArray[2]); // 300

Method .push()
The .push() method of JavaScript arrays can be used to
add one or more elements to the end of an array. // Adding a single element:
.push() mutates the original array returns the new const cart = ['apple', 'orange'];
length of the array. cart.push('pear');

// Adding multiple elements:


const numbers = [1, 2];
numbers.push(3, 4, 5);

Method .pop()
The .pop() method removes the last element from an
array and returns that element. const ingredients = ['eggs', 'flour',
'chocolate'];

const poppedIngredient
= ingredients.pop(); // 'chocolate'
console.log(ingredients); // ['eggs',
'flour']
Mutable
JavaScript arrays are mutable, meaning that the values
they contain can be changed. const names = ['Alice', 'Bob'];
Even if they are declared using const , the contents can
be manipulated by reassigning internal values or using names.push('Carl');
methods like .push() and .pop() .
// ['Alice', 'Bob', 'Carl']

Arrays
Arrays are lists of ordered, stored data. They can hold
items that are of any data type. Arrays are created by // An array containing numbers
using square brackets, with individual elements separated const numberArray = [0, 1, 2, 3];
by commas.

// An array containing different data


types
const mixedArray = [1, 'chicken', false];
