Get column from a two dimensional array

by

Taking a column is easy with the map function.

// a two-dimensional array
var two_d = [[1,2,3],[4,5,6],[7,8,9]];

// take the third column
var col3 = two_d.map(function(value,index) { return value[2]; });

Why bother with the slice at all? Just filter the matrix to find the rows of interest.

var interesting = two_d.filter(function(value,index) {return value[1]==5;});
// interesting is now [[4,5,6]]

Sadly, filter and map are not natively available on IE9 and lower. The MDN documentation provides implementations for browsers without native support.
