JavaScript - extract string item from array

In this article, we would like to show you how to search and extract string items from an array in JavaScript.

Quick solution:

const resultArray = myArray.filter(element => element === 'string value here ...');

Practical example

In this example, we use Array.prototype.filter() to search for 'C' element in the given array and save the result inside resultArray.

// ONLINE-RUNNER:browser;

const myArray = ['A', 'C', 'D', 'C'];
const resultArray = myArray.filter(element => element === 'C');

console.log(resultArray); // [ 'C', 'C' ]
