The **`pop()` method** removes the last element of an array. It returns the element that it removed. The `pop()` method changes the length of the array by decreasing the array.

#     
## Syntax
```js
array.pop()
```
## Parameter(s)
This method does not accept any parameters.

## Return value
The `pop()` method returns the removed element.

## Example
In the example below, we will create some arrays and use the `pop()` method.



// create arrays
let array1 = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
let array2 = ["e", "d", "p", "r", "e", "s", "s", "o", "o"];
let array3 = ["a", "b", "c", "d", "e"]

// popped arrays
let A = array1.pop();
let B = array2.pop();
let C = array3.pop();

// print popped values
console.log(A);
console.log(B);
console.log(C)

> Note: The `pop` array, when called on an empty array, returns undefined.

See the example below.

// create empty array
let emptyArray = []

// save popped element
let pop = emptyArray.pop();

// log out popped element
console.log(pop) // prints undefined

What is array.pop() in JavaScript?

Removes the last array element and returns it. Shortens array length; on empty arrays, returns undefined.
