array.length

The length property represents an unsigned, 32-bit integer that is always numerically greater than the highest index in the array.

الوصف

The value of the length property is an integer with a positive sign and a value less than 2 to the 32nd power (2³²).

You can set the length property to truncate an array at any time. When you extend an array by changing its length property, the number of actual elements does not increase; for example, if you set length to 3 when it is currently 2, the array still contains only 2 elements. Thus, the length property does not necessarily indicate the number of defined values in the array. See also Relationship between length and numerical properties.

Iterating over an array

In the following example, the array numbers is iterated through by looking at the length property. The value in each element is then doubled.

var numbers = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5];

for (var i = 0; i < numbers.length; i++) {
  numbers[i] *= 2;
}
// numbers is now [2, 4, 6, 8, 10]

Shortening an array

The following example shortens the array statesUS to a length of 50 if the current length is greater than 50.

if (statesUS.length > 50) {
  statesUS.length = 50;
}
