Example: This example shows the basic use of the typedArray.find() method in Javascript.

javascript

<script>
    // Calling isNegative function to check
    // elements of the typedArray
    function isNegative(element, index, array)
    {
        return element < 0;
    }

    // Created some typedArrays.
    const A = new Int8Array([ -10, 20, -30, 40, -50 ]);
    const B = new Int8Array([ 10, 20, -30, 40, -50 ]);
    const C = new Int8Array([ -10, 20, -30, 40, 50 ]);
    const D = new Int8Array([ 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 ]);

    // Calling find() function to check condition
    // provided by its parameter
    const a = A.find(isNegative);
    const b = B.find(isNegative);
    const c = C.find(isNegative);
    const d = D.find(isNegative);

    // Printing the find typedArray
    console.log(a);
    console.log(b);
    console.log(c);
    console.log(d);
</script>

Output:

-10
-30
