How to useArray.indexOf() method in Typescript
The indexOf
method returns the index of the first occurrence of a specified element in an array. If the element is not present, it returns -1.
Syntax:
const index = myArray.indexOf("yourString");
const arrayContainsString = index !== -1;
Example: In this example, we are using Array.indexof() method.
const myArray: string[] = ["apple",
"banana", "orange"];
const searchString: string = "banana";
if (myArray.indexOf(searchString) !== -1) {
console.log(`Array contains the
string '${searchString}'.`);
} else {
console.log(`Array does not contain
the string '${searchString}'.`);
}
Output:
Array contains the string 'banana'.
