javascript - JS insert into array at specific index

itemprop="text">



I would like to
insert a string into an array at a specific index. How can I do
that?



I tried to use push()



Answer




Well, thats pretty easy. Assuming you have an
array with 5 objects inside and you want to insert a string at index 2 you can simply
use javascripts array splice
method:




var array =
['foo', 'bar', 1, 2, 3],
insertAtIndex = 2,
stringToBeInserted =
'someString';

// insert string 'someString' into the array at index
2
array.splice( insertAtIndex, 0, stringToBeInserted
);


Your result will be
now:




['foo', 'bar',
'someString', 1, 2,
3]


FYI: The push()
method you used just adds new items to the end of an array (and returns the new
length)
