Arrays

1. Chunk
Split an array of element in to groups with the same size.

let arr = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10];
console.log(arr.chunk(2)); // Output: [ [ 1, 2 ], [ 3, 4 ], [ 5, 6 ], [ 7, 8 ], [ 9, 10 ] ]
console.log(arr.chunk(3)); // Output: [ [ 1, 2, 3 ], [ 4, 5, 6 ], [ 7, 8, 9 ], [ 10 ] ]
console.log(arr.chunk(4)); // Output: [ [ 1, 2, 3, 4 ], [ 5, 6, 7, 8 ], [ 9, 10 ] ]

2. Compact

console.log(arr.dropRight(3)); // Output: [ 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 ]

6. DropIf
Remove an item of the array if the condition is true

let arr = ["rock", "plane", "apple", "rise", "banana", "red"];
 
console.log(arr.dropIf((item) => {
   return item.startsWith("r"); // Output: [ 'plane', 'apple', 'banana' ]
}))

7. First

let arr = ["blue", "green", "red", "yellow"]
console.log(arr.first()); // Output: blue

8. Last

10. Take Take values from the array starting at the specified position from the beginning

let arr = ["rock", "plane", "apple", "rise", "banana", "red"];
console.log(arr.take(2)); // Output: [ 'rock', 'plane' ]

11. Take Right

12. Take If
Take elements of an array from the beginning while the callback condition is true
