Create a comma separated list from an array in JavaScript

Here is a need to convert an array into an object. To do so we are going to use a few of the most preferred methods. First here is a method to know.

Array join() method
This method joins the elements of the array to form a string and returns the new string.
The elements of the array will be separated by a specified separator. If not specified, Default separator comma (, ) is used.
Syntax:
```
array.join(separator)
```
Parameters:
- separator:This parameter is optional. It specifies the separator to be used. If not used, Separated Comma(, ) is used.
Return value:
A String, containing the array values, separated by the specified separator.
Array toString() method
This method converts an array into a String and returns the new string.
Syntax:
```
array.toString()
```
Return value:
It returns a string which represents the values of the array, separated by a comma.

Example-1: This example joins the element of the array by join() method using comma(, ).

        var el_down = document.getElementById("GFG_DOWN"); 
        var arr = ["GFG1", "GFG2", "GFG3"]; 
        el_up.innerHTML = 'Original Array = ["' + arr[0] + '", ' 
                                                + arr[1] + '", '  
                                                + arr[2] + '"' 
                                                + ']';; 
  
        function gfg_Run() { 
  
            el_down.innerHTML =

        }

Example-2:This example uses the toString() method to convert an array into a comma separated list.
