## Overview
**`prefix(upTo:)`** is an array method that is used to return a new array of elements. The new array contains elements of the original array up to, but not including, the specified position. 

## Syntax
```swift
arr.prefix(upTo: position)
```
## Parameters

`position`: This is the position up to which the returned array returns the elements of `arr`. The returned elements do not include the element in this position.
## Return value
This method returns an array up to, but not including, the specified `position`.
## Code example

// create arrays
let numbers = [2, 1, 45, 3, 9]
let fruits = ["orange", "apple", "banana", "water-melon", "grape"]
let gnaam = ["Google", "Netflix", "Amazon", "Apple", "Meta"]

// get some elements
// and print results
print(numbers.prefix(upTo: 2)) // [2,1]
print(fruits.prefix(upTo: 1))  // ["orange"]
print(gnaam.prefix(upTo: 5))   // ["Google", "Netflix", "Amazon", "Apple", "Meta"]

## Explanation
