unshift() Function is used to add a new element at the beginning of the array and shifts other elements to the right.
Let us say, we have a Array that contains four names, Mohan, Kriti, Philip and Salim. And we want to add the element Benny at the beginning of the Array.
<html> <body> <script> var x = ["Mohan", "Kriti", "Philip", "Salim"] x.unshift("Benny") document.write(x) </script> </body> </html>
So, all we have done is, used the unshift() method to add the name Benny at the beginning of the Array.
x.unshift("Benny")
And what happens is Benny gets inserted at index 0 pushing all other elements to the right.
