how to use the rest function from lodash in javascript

To use the rest() function from lodash in JavaScript:

1. Install lodash by running npm install lodash in your terminal.
2. Import the lodash library using import _ from 'lodash' at the top of your JavaScript file.
3. Use the rest() function to create a new function that returns all the arguments passed to it after the first one. The syntax for using rest() is as follows:

index.tsx
function myFunction(a, b, ...others) {
  console.log(others);
}

myFunction(1, 2, 3, 4, 5); // logs [3, 4, 5]
110 chars
6 lines

In this example, myFunction() takes 2 arguments a and b, followed by the ...others parameter using the rest operator. This new ...others array will contain all the arguments passed to myFunction() after the first two.

4. If you prefer using lodash's rest() function instead of the rest operator, you can simply pass your function as a parameter:

index.tsx
const myFunction = _.rest(function(a, b, others) {
  console.log(others);
});

myFunction(1, 2, 3, 4, 5); // logs [3, 4, 5]
124 chars
6 lines

In this example, _.rest() creates a new function based on the provided function, with the others parameter using the rest operator.
