remove first element from array and return the array minus the first element

November 13, 2022 by Tarik

This should remove the first element, and then you can return the remaining:

var myarray = ["item 1", "item 2", "item 3", "item 4"];
    
myarray.shift();
alert(myarray);

As others have suggested, you could also use slice(1);

var myarray = ["item 1", "item 2", "item 3", "item 4"];
  
alert(myarray.slice(1));
