How to remove multiple elements from array in JavaScript?

To remove multiple elements from array in JavaScript, we can use the array filter method.

For instance, we write

let valuesArr = ["v1", "v2", "v3", "v4", "v5"];
const removeValFrom = [0, 2, 4];
valuesArr = valuesArr.filter((value, index) => {
  return removeValFrom.indexOf(index) === -1;
});

to call valueArr.filter with a callback that checks if the index of the element in valuesArr is in the removeValFrom array which has the indexes of the items in valuesArr that we want to remove.

A new array with the items that we want to keep are included, so we assign the array back to valuesArr.

Conclusion
