TypeScript - Array lastIndexOf()



lastIndexOf() method returns the last index at which a given element can be found in the array, or -1 if it is not present. The array is searched backwards, starting at fromIndex.

Syntax

array.lastIndexOf(searchElement[, fromIndex]);

Parameter Details

  • searchElement − Element to locate in the array.

  • fromIndex − The index at which to start searching backwards. Defaults to the array's length, i.e., the whole array will be searched. If the index is greater than or equal to the length of the array, the whole array will be searched. If negative, it is taken as the offset from the end of the array.

Return Value

Returns the index of the found element from the last.

Example

var index = [12, 5, 8, 130, 44].lastIndexOf(8); 
console.log("index is : " + index );

On compiling, it will generate the same code in JavaScript.

Its output is as follows −
