Lodash _.dropRight() Function

Lodash is a JavaScript library that works on the top of underscore.js. Lodash helps in working with arrays, strings, objects, numbers, etc.
The _.dropRight() function is used to delete the elements from the right of the array i.e from the (n-1)th element.

Syntax: 

_.dropRight(array, n)

Parameter:

• array: It is the original array from which elements are to be deleted.
• n: Here n is the number of elements that are to be deleted from the array. By default, it is set to one.

Return Value: It returns the array.

Note: Install the lodash module by using command npm install lodash before using the code given below.

Example 1: When n is less than the size of an array.

// Requiring the lodash library
const _ = require("lodash");

// Original array
let array1 = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]

// Using _.dropRight() function
let newArray = lodash.dropRight(array1, 2);

// Original Array
console.log("original Array: ", array1)

// Printing the newArray
console.log("new Array: ", newArray)

Output:

Example 2: When n is greater than the size of the array.

// Requiring the lodash library
const _ = require("lodash");

// Original array
let array1 = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]

// Using _.dropRight() function
let newArray = lodash.dropRight(array1, 10);

// Original Array
console.log("original Array: ", array1)

// Printing the newArray
console.log("new Array: ", newArray)

Output:

Example 3: When an array of objects is given and n is not given.

// Requiring the lodash library
const _ = require("lodash");

// Original array
let array1 = [
    { "a": 1, "b": 2 },
    { "a": 2, "b": 1 },
    { "b": 2 }
]

// Using _.dropRight() function
let newArray = lodash.dropRight(array1);

// Original Array
console.log("original Array: ", array1)

// Printing the newArray
console.log("new Array: ", newArray)
