Array.map 1 element to multiple element

by

You can use reduce() and add to array e+1, e+2 of each element.

var ar = [3, 16, 120];

var result = ar.reduce(function(r, e) {
  r.push(e+1, e+2);
  return r;
}, []);

console.log(result)

This is ES6 version with arrow function

var ar = [3, 16, 120];

var result = ar.reduce((r, e) => r.push(e+1, e+2) && r, []);
console.log(result)

PS: Array.push seems to be faster and has no Maximum call stack.. error, see below:

a = Array(1000000).fill(1); st = Date.now(); Array.prototype.concat.apply([], a.map(function (n) { return [n+1, n+2]; })); console.log(`${Date.now() - st}ms `);
> RangeError: Maximum call stack size exceeded

a = Array(1000000).fill(1); st = Date.now(); a.reduce((r, e) => r.push(e+1, e+2) && r, []); console.log(`${Date.now() - st}ms `);
> 180ms

So .push is preferable comparing to accepted solution.
