Why does array methods are producing error? [duplicate]

Use the Array.prototype.push method to append values to the end of an array:

// initialize array
var arr = [
  "Hi",
  "Hello",
  "Bonjour"
];

// append new value to the array
arr.push("Hola");

console.log(arr);

You can use the push() function to append more than one value to an array in a single call:

// initialize array
var arr = ["Hi", "Hello", "Bonjour", "Hola"];

// append multiple values to the array
arr.push("Salut", "Hey");

// display all values
for (var i = 0; i < arr.length; i++) {
  console.log(arr[i]);
}

Update

If you want to add the items of one array to another array, you can use firstArray.concat(secondArray):

var arr = [
  "apple",
  "banana",
  "cherry"
];

// Do not forget to assign the result as, unlike push, concat does not change the existing array
arr = arr.concat([
  "dragonfruit",
  "elderberry",
  "fig"
]);

console.log(arr);

Update

Just an addition to this answer if you want to prepend any value to the start of an array (i.e. first index) then you can use Array.prototype.unshift for this purpose.

var arr = [1, 2, 3];
arr.unshift(0);
console.log(arr);

It also supports appending multiple values at once just like push.


Update

Another way with ES6 syntax is to return a new array with the spread syntax. This leaves the original array unchanged, but returns a new array with new items appended, compliant with the spirit of functional programming.

const arr = [
  "Hi",
  "Hello",
  "Bonjour",
];

const newArr = [
  ...arr,
  "Salut",
];

console.log(newArr);

If you're only appending a single variable, then push() works just fine. If you need to append another array, use concat():

var ar1 = [1, 2, 3];
var ar2 = [4, 5, 6];

var ar3 = ar1.concat(ar2);

alert(ar1);
alert(ar2);
alert(ar3);

The concat does not affect ar1 and ar2 unless reassigned, for example:

var ar1 = [1, 2, 3];
var ar2 = [4, 5, 6];

ar1 = ar1.concat(ar2);
alert(ar1);

There is a lot of great information on JavaScript Reference.
