The map() method is an iterative method. It calls a provided callbackFn function once for each element in an array and constructs a new array from the results.

callbackFn is invoked only for array indexes which have assigned values. It is not invoked for empty slots in sparse arrays.

The map() method is a copying method. It does not alter this. However, the function provided as callbackFn can mutate the array. Note, however, that the length of the array is saved before the first invocation of callbackFn. Therefore:

  • callbackFn will not visit any elements added beyond the array's initial length when the call to map() began.

  • Changes to already-visited indexes do not cause callbackFn to be invoked on them again.

  • If an existing, yet-unvisited element of the array is changed by callbackFn, its value passed to the callbackFn will be the value at the time that element gets visited. Deleted elements are not visited.

const numbers = [1, 4, 9]; const roots = numbers.map((num) => Math.sqrt(num)); // roots is now [1, 2, 3] // numbers is still [1, 4, 9]
