For else loop in Javascript?

Question

Is there a Javascript equivalent of the python \'for-else\' loop, so something like this:

searched = input(\"Input: \");
for i in range(5):
    if i==searched:
          


        

Answer 1

You'll have to use the boolean. There's no for-else in JavaScript.

A nice and short way to search would be to use Array.prototype.indexOf():

var search = function(num, arr){
    var index = arr.indexOf(num);
    if(index !== -1)
        return "Match found: " + index;
    }
    return "No match found!";
};

Call it like this, for example:

console.log(search(4, [0,1,2,3,4]));
