Flashcards
map() method
map() method
A function that is applied to each element of an array, creating a new array with the transformed elements. It takes a callback function as an argument, which is executed for each element of the array.
filter() method
filter() method
A function that filters an array based on a condition. It takes a callback function as an argument, which returns true
or false
for each element. Only elements that meet the condition are included in the new array.
reduce() method
reduce() method
A function that iterates through an array, processing each element and accumulating a single value. It takes two parameters: the accumulator and the current element. The accumulator holds the result of the previous iteration.

Study Notes
Callback Functions
- A callback function is a function passed as an argument to another function.
- It's executed after the completion of some operations.
- A callback's purpose is to execute code in response to an event.
- Callbacks allow applications to perform actions in response to user events, such as key presses or mouse clicks.
JavaScript Arrays
- JavaScript arrays can hold values of mixed types.
- Array sizes are dynamic (not fixed).
- Creating arrays: Use
Array
constructor (new Array(...)
) or array literal notation ([element1, element2, ...]
). - Accessing array elements: Use index in square brackets (
array[index]
). - Array length: Use
.length
property to get the number of elements.
Array Operations
push()
: Adds an element to the end of an array.unshift()
: Adds an element to the beginning of an array.pop()
: Removes and returns the last element from the array.shift()
: Removes and returns the first element from the array.forEach()
: Executes a provided function once for each array element.- The provided function receives the current element, index, and array as arguments.
map()
: Creates a new array with the results of calling a provided function on every element in the original array.filter()
: Creates a new array with all elements that pass the test implemented by the provided function.reduce()
: Executes a reducer function (that you provide) on each element of the array, resulting in a single output value.- The reducer function takes two arguments: accumulator and currentValue.
- Accumulator is the result of the previous calls to the reducer function.
reduce()
can optionally take an initial value as the 2nd argument.
