Reverse an Array in JavaScript

The reverseArray function reverses the order of elements in an array while leaving the original array unmodified.

const reverseArray = (arr) => arr.slice().reverse();

const originalArray = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5];

// Output: [5, 4, 3, 2, 1]
console.log(reverseArray(originalArray));
// Output: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] (remains unchanged) 
console.log(originalArray);              

How it works:

1. slice(): Creates a shallow copy of the original array to avoid modifying it.

2. reverse(): Reverses the order of elements in the copied array.

Use Cases and Applications:

• Algorithm Design: Reverse sequences for data manipulation or algorithms.

• Chronological Order: Display data in reverse chronological or numerical order.

• Data Transformations: Prepare data for visualization or analysis by reversing its structure.
