Using a generator:
function *intersperse(a, delim) {
let first = true;
for (const x of a) {
if (!first) yield delim;
first = false;
yield x;
}
}
console.log([...intersperse(array, '&')]);
Thanks to @Bergi for pointing out the useful generalization that the input could be any iterable.
If you don’t like using generators, then
[].concat(...a.map(e => ['&', e])).slice(1)
