JavaScript Mastery from Zero to Hero - Prepare for Coding Interviews - How to Copy an Array with the Spread Operator in

This video tutorial explains how to clone arrays in JavaScript without modifying the original array using the spread operator. The instructor introduces the concept, provides a simple example using a weather report, and highlights the efficiency of the spread operator compared to other methods like slice. The video concludes with a prompt for further exercises to deepen understanding.

What is the main purpose of the spread operator in the context of arrays?

• To modify the original array

• To copy an array without modifying it

• To sort an array

• To delete elements from an array

Which of the following is the correct syntax for the spread operator?

• Three dots (...)

• Two dots (..)

• Four dots (....)

• Five dots (.....)

In the example provided, what is the initial content of the 'weather report' array?

• Sunny and 25°

• Rainy and 10°

• Hot and 30°

• Cold and 13° with a tornado

What is the result of using the spread operator on the 'weather report' array?

• A modified version of the original array

• A new array with the same content as the original

• An empty array

• A sorted version of the original array

Why might the spread operator be preferred over the slice method for copying arrays?

• It is faster and more efficient

• It is more complex

• It requires more code

• It modifies the original array

What is suggested as the next step after learning to clone arrays with the spread operator?

• Learning to sort arrays

• Making multiple copies of arrays

• Deleting elements from arrays

• Modifying the original array

What is the tone of the conclusion regarding the spread operator?

• It is only useful for advanced programmers

• It is not recommended for use

• It is a simple and useful tool

• It is a complex and difficult concept
