Get all array elements except for first and last

Question

I have an array of locations, I need to be able to access origin, middlepoints and destination separately.

I know that my origin is always the first element and the destination is always the last element but I can't figure out how can I dynamically can access all the middlepoints?

Answer 1

Since there is no data I am taking a basic array to show. Also by this method you will preserve your original array.

var arr = [1,2,3,4,5,6,7];
var middle = arr.slice(1, -1);
console.log(middle);

OR

var arr = [1,2,3,4,5,6,7];
var middle = arr.slice(1, arr.length-1);
console.log(middle);
