In a similar vain, what is the value of r in:
let [z,y,...r] = {0:0, 1:1, 2:2, length: 3, 3:3,4:4};
should it be [2] or [2,3,4] (and if the latter how is that determined)?
It seems to me that [2] is the right answer,
How so? If `...n` is the range slice operator, it should be [2, 3, 4], no?
How do you define the range of "array-like elements" of an object. In all other places of the ES
specification, the value of the "length" property is used to determine the upper bound of the
elements and any "integer keyed" elements beyond the length are ignored by array operations and
functions.
Let's see.
What is the result in case of:
let a = [0, 1, 2, 3, 4];
a.length = 6;
let [z, y, ...r] = a;
if `...r` depends on the `length` of `a`, then `r` is [2, 3, 4,
undefined]; If not, then `r` just takes only existing values (as some
array methods do, e.g. forEach or map), and it's [2, 3, 4]. In later
case, the simple object semantics obeys this rule.
Dmitry.
