Array.of()
Creates a new array from the provided arguments, regardless of their number or type.
Syntax
Array.of(...elements)Parameters
| Name | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
elements | any | No | Elements used to create the array. |
Returns
Array — A new Array instance containing the arguments.
Examples
console.log(Array.of(7));
Output
[ 7 ]
console.log(Array(7).length, Array.of(7).length);
Output
7 1
Notes
Differs from the `Array()` constructor: `Array.of(7)` makes `[7]` while
`Array(7)` makes a sparse array of length 7. Useful when a single numeric
argument should be an element, not a length.
