What is the difference between unshift() and Push() method in JavaScript?

JavaScript Unshift() method is very much similar to the push() method but the difference is that the unshift() method adds the elements at the very beginning of the array whereas the push() method adds at the end of the array.

Javascript Array unshift() method: The JavaScript Array unshift() Method is used to add one or more elements to the beginning of the given array. This function increases the length of the existing array by the number of elements added to the array.

Syntax:

array.unshift(element1, element2, ..., elementX)

Example: Below is the example of the Array unshift() method.

Javascript

<script>
    function func() {

        // Original array
        var array = ["GFG", "Geeks", "for", "Geeks"];

        // Checking for condition in array
        var value = array.unshift("GeeksforGeeks");

        console.log(value);
        console.log(array);
    }

    func();
</script>

Output:

GeeksforGeeks,GFG,Geeks,for,Geeks. 

Javascript Array push() method: The JavaScript Array push() Method is used to add one or more values to the end of the array. This method changes the length of the array by the number of elements added to the array.

Syntax:

arr.push(element1, elements2 ....., elementN]])

Example: Below is the example of the Array push() method. 

Javascript

<script>
    function func() {
        var arr = ['GFG', 'gfg', 'g4g'];

        // Pushing the element into the array
        arr.push('GeeksforGeeks');
        console.log(arr);

    }
    func();
</script>

Output: 

GFG,gfg,g4g,GeeksforGeeks
