how to use the initial function from lodash in javascript

To use the initial() function from lodash in JavaScript, you would first need to install and import the lodash package into your project. You can do this using npm by running the following command in your project directory:

npm install lodash
19 chars
2 lines

Once you have installed lodash, you can import the initial() function into your JavaScript file like this:

index.tsx
const _ = require('lodash');
29 chars
2 lines

You can then use the initial() function to get all but the last element of an array. The syntax of the initial() function is as follows:

index.tsx
_.initial(array)
17 chars
2 lines

Here, array is the array from which you want to get all but the last element.

Here's an example of using the initial() function:

index.tsx
const numbers = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5];
const allButLast = _.initial(numbers);
console.log(allButLast); // Output: [1, 2, 3, 4]
121 chars
4 lines

In this example, the initial() function is used to get all but the last element of the numbers array. The resulting array [1, 2, 3, 4] is then logged to the console.
