/*JavaScript Array slice() Method

The Array slice() method returns selected elements in an array as a new array.

It selects from a given start, up to a (not inclusive) given end. This method

does not change the original array, enabling non-destructive extraction of array segments.

Syntax:

arr.slice(begin, end);

Parameters:

begin: This parameter defines the starting index from where the portion is to be extracted.

If this argument is missing then the method takes begin as 0 as it is the default start value.

end: Parameter specifying the end index for extracting a portion from an array, defaulting

to array length if undefined, adjusting for exceeding length.

Return value:

This method returns a new array containing some portion of the original array. */

/*Example 1: Extracting elements between two indexes

Here, the slice() method extracts the array from the given array starting from index 2

and including all the elements less than index 4.*/

function func() {

// Original Array

let arr = [23, 56, 87, 32, 75, 13];

// Extracted array

let new_arr = arr.slice(2, 4);

console.log(arr);

console.log(new_arr);

}

func();

console.log("---------------------------------------------------------")

// Output

// [ 23, 56, 87, 32, 75, 13 ]

// [ 87, 32 ]

/*Example 2: Passing no arguments

Here, the slice() method extracts the entire array from the given string and returns it as the answer,

Since no arguments were passed to it.*/

function func1() {

//Original Array

let arr = [23, 56, 87, 32, 75, 13];

//Extracted array

let new_arr = arr.slice();

console.log(arr);

console.log(new_arr);

}

func1();

console.log("---------------------------------------------------------")

// Output

// [ 23, 56, 87, 32, 75, 13 ]

// [ 23, 56, 87, 32, 75, 13 ]

/*Example 3: Extracting array from index 2

In this example, the slice() method extracts the array starting from index 2 till the

end of the array and returns it as the answer.*/

function func2() {

//Original Array

let arr = [23, 56, 87, 32, 75, 13];

//Extracted array

let new_arr = arr.slice(2);

console.log(arr);

console.log(new_arr);

}

func2();

console.log("---------------------------------------------------------")

// Output

// [ 23, 56, 87, 32, 75, 13 ]

// [ 87, 32, 75, 13 ]

/*Example 4: Slicing the nested Array

In this example, the slice() method extracts the elements from the nested array and

returns it as the answer.*/

function func3() {

// Original Array

let arr = [23, [87, 32, 75, 27,3,10,18 ,13]];

// Extracted array

let new_arr = arr[1].slice(2, 4);

console.log(arr);

console.log(new_arr);

}

func3();

/*Output

[

23,

[

87, 32, 75, 27,

3, 10, 18, 13

]

]

[ 75, 27 ]*/
