Get the last item in an array

Question

Here is my JavaScript code so far:

var linkElement = document.getElementById(\"BackButton\");
var loc_array = document.location.href.split(\'/\');
var newT =         


        

Answer 1

Two options are:

var last = arr[arr.length - 1]

or

var last = arr.slice(-1)[0]

The former is faster, but the latter looks nicer
