How to Use the slice() Method

The basic idea of the slice()method is as follows:
slice(start, end)

Parameter 1: start is a zero-based index at which to start extraction. If start is undefined, slice starts from the index 0.
Parameter 2: end is a zero-based index before which to end extraction. slice extracts up to but not including end.

!! IMPORTANT !!
The slice() method will not modify the original array. It will return a shallow copy of a portion of an array into a new array object.

Case 1: No Parameters

const numbers = [0, 1, 2, 3, 4];
const copiedNumbers = numbers.slice();
console.log(numbers);  // [0, 1, 2, 3, 4]
console.log(copiedNumbers);  // [0, 1, 2, 3, 4]

Case 2: Only Setting start

const numbers = [0, 1, 2, 3, 4];
const copiedNumbers = numbers.slice(2);
console.log(numbers);  // [0, 1, 2, 3, 4]
console.log(copiedNumbers);  // [2, 3, 4]

const numbers = [0, 1, 2, 3, 4];
const copiedNumbers = numbers.slice(-3);
console.log(numbers);  // [0, 1, 2, 3, 4]
console.log(copiedNumbers);  // [2, 3, 4]

Case 3: Setting start and end

const numbers = [0, 1, 2, 3, 4];
const copiedNumbers = numbers.slice(2, 4);
console.log(numbers);  // [0, 1, 2, 3, 4]
console.log(copiedNumbers);  // [2, 3]

const numbers = [0, 1, 2, 3, 4];
const copiedNumbers = numbers.slice(-3, -1);
console.log(numbers);  // [0, 1, 2, 3, 4]
console.log(copiedNumbers);  // [2, 3]
