I just saw a code snippet in MDN about destructuring rest parameters like so:
function f(...[a, b, c]) {
return a + b + c;
}
f(1) // NaN (b and c are undefined)
f(1, 2, 3) // 6
f(1, 2, 3, 4) // 6 (the fourth parameter is not destructured)
the code snippet is in this page: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Functions/rest_parameters
Although the common use case for rest parameters is very clear to me (function foo(...params){/*code*/}
) I could not think about a real world use case to use rest parameters like the way presented in that code snippet. Instead, I think that in that case, I should just use a common function definition:
function f(a, b, c) {
return a + b + c;
}
f(1) // NaN (b and c are undefined)
f(1, 2, 3) // 6
f(1, 2, 3, 4) // 6 (the fourth parameter is not defined)
