length

length: number

Gets or sets the length of the array. This is a number one higher than the highest index in the array.

Methods

Call Signature

find<S>(predicate, thisArg?): S

Returns the value of the first element in the array where predicate is true, and undefined otherwise.

Type Parameters
S

S

Parameters
predicate

(value, index, obj) => value is S

find calls predicate once for each element of the array, in ascending order, until it finds one where predicate returns true. If such an element is found, find immediately returns that element value. Otherwise, find returns undefined.

thisArg?

any

If provided, it will be used as the this value for each invocation of predicate. If it is not provided, undefined is used instead.

Returns

S

Call Signature

find(predicate, thisArg?): T

Parameters
predicate

any

Returns

T

U

U

Parameters
predicate

(value, index, obj) => value is U

Returns

U


findIndex()

findIndex(predicate, thisArg?): number

Returns the index of the first element in the array where predicate is true, and -1 otherwise.

Parameters

predicate

(value, index, obj) => unknown

find calls predicate once for each element of the array, in ascending order, until it finds one where predicate returns true. If such an element is found, findIndex immediately returns that element index. Otherwise, findIndex returns -1.

thisArg?

any

If provided, it will be used as the this value for each invocation of predicate. If it is not provided, undefined is used instead.

Returns

number
