A comma-separated list of items (strings, variables, or functions) can be passed to the end of the array. The .push() method is not to be confused with returning an entirely new array with the passed object.

Example

Add one item to the end of the colors array:

const colors = ['red', 'orange'];
colors.push('yellow');

console.log(colors);
