Removing elements with Array.map in JavaScript

by

You should use the filter method rather than map unless you want to mutate the items in the array, in addition to filtering.

eg.

var filteredItems = items.filter(function(item)
{
    return ...some condition...;
});

[Edit: Of course you could always do sourceArray.filter(...).map(...) to both filter and mutate]
