🔹 1. Array some() Method

The some() method checks if at least one element in the array meets a given condition.

✅ Example:

let array = [2, 5, 8, 1, 4];

console.log(array.some(num => num > 5));
    

🖥 Output:

true

🔹 2. Array reduce() Method

The reduce() method reduces an array to a single value.

✅ Example:

let numbers = [88, 50, 25, 10];

let result = numbers.reduce((total, num) => total - num);

console.log(result);
    

🖥 Output:

3

🔹 3. Array map() Method

The map() method creates a new array by applying a function to each element.

✅ Example:

let numbers = [4, 9, 16, 25];

let squared = numbers.map(num => Math.sqrt(num));

console.log(squared);
    

🖥 Output:

[2, 3, 4, 5]

🔹 4. Array every() Method

The every() method checks if all elements in the array meet a condition.

✅ Example:

let arr = [11, 89, 23, 7, 98];

let allPositive = arr.every(num => num > 0);

console.log(allPositive);
    

🖥 Output:

true

🔹 5. Array flat() Method

The flat() method flattens nested arrays into a single array.

✅ Example:

let arr = [[11, 89], [23, 7], 98];

let flatArray = arr.flat();

console.log(flatArray);
    

🖥 Output:

[11, 89, 23, 7, 98]

🔹 6. Array flatMap() Method

The flatMap() method maps and then flattens an array.

✅ Example:

let myArray = [[1], [2], [3], [4], [5]];

let result = myArray.flatMap(num => num * 10);

console.log(result);
    

🖥 Output:

[10, 20, 30, 40, 50]

🔹 7. Array filter() Method

The filter() method creates a new array with elements that match a condition.

✅ Example:

let numbers = [112, 52, 0, -1, 944];

let filtered = numbers.filter(num => num > 0);

console.log(filtered);
    

🖥 Output:

[112, 52, 944]
