The some() method checks if any array elements pass a test provided as a callback function, returning true if any do and false if none do. It does not execute the function for empty elements or alter the original array.
Syntaxarr.some(callback(element,index,array),thisArg);Parameters
Returns true
if any of the array elements pass the test, otherwise false
.
Example: In this example the Function checkAvailability checks if a value exists in an array using some(). Function func tests checkAvailability to see if 2 and 87 exist in the array.
JavaScript
function checkAvailability(arr, val) {
return arr.some(function (arrVal) {
return val === arrVal;
});
}
function func() {
// Original function
let arr = [2, 5, 8, 1, 4];
// Checking for condition
console.log(checkAvailability(arr, 2));
console.log(checkAvailability(arr, 87));
}
func();
Example : In this example the Function isGreaterThan5 checks if any element in an array is greater than 5. Function func uses some() method to verify if any element in array satisfies condition.
JavaScript
function isGreaterThan5(element, index, array) {
return element > 5;
}
function func() {
// Original array
let array = [2, 5, 8, 1, 4];
// Checking for condition in array
let value = array.some(isGreaterThan5);
console.log(value);
}
func();
Example : In this example the Function isGreaterThan5 checks if any element in an array is greater than 5. Function func uses some() to verify if any element in array satisfies condition.
JavaScript
function isGreaterThan5(element, index, array) {
return element > 5;
}
function func() {
// Original array
let array = [-2, 5, 3, 1, 4];
// Checking for condition in the array
let value = array.some(isGreaterThan5);
console.log(value);
}
func();
