JavaScript arrays are ordered collections of values accessible by numeric indices. They can store multiple data types
including numbers, strings, booleans, objects, and other arrays.

array[0] // first item
array[10] // undefined if out of bounds

Array Properties

Updating Elements

array[index] = newValue; // Updates element at index

Two-Dimensional Arrays

An array of arrays, used for grid-like data:


array[row][col]

Destructuring Arrays

[a, b] = array; // Assigns values


[a, b, ...rest] = array; // Collects remaining items

Common Methods

push() - Add to end


pop() - Remove from end
shift() - Remove from start
unshift() - Add to start
indexOf() - Find index
splice() - Add/remove at index
includes() - Check existence
concat() - Merge arrays
slice() - Copy a portion
reverse() - Reverse in place
join() - Join into string
split() - String to array
spread (...) - Copy or expand
