Another array method, .pop()
, removes the last item of an array.
const newItemTracker = ['item 0', 'item 1', 'item 2']; const removed = newItemTracker.pop(); console.log(newItemTracker); // Output: [ 'item 0', 'item 1' ] console.log(removed); // Output: item 2
- In the example above, calling
.pop()
on thenewItemTracker
array removeditem 2
from the end. .pop()
does not take any arguments, it simply removes the last element ofnewItemTracker
..pop()
returns the value of the last element. In the example, we store the returned value in a variableremoved
to be used for later..pop()
is a method that mutates the initial array.
When you need to mutate an array by removing the last element, use .pop()
.
