javascript - Remove all elements from array that match specific string

Question

What is the easiest way to remove all elements from array that match specific string? For example:

array = [1,2,'deleted',4,5,'deleted',6,7];

I want to remove all 'deleted' from the array.

Answer 1

Simply use the Array.prototype.filter() function for obtain elements of a condition

var array = [1,2,'deleted',4,5,'deleted',6,7];
var newarr = array.filter(function(a){return a !== 'deleted'})

Update: ES6 Syntax

let array = [1,2,'deleted',4,5,'deleted',6,7]
let newarr = array.filter(a => a !== 'deleted')
