How can I add new array elements at the beginning of an array in JavaScript?

I have a need to add or prepend elements at the beginning of an array.

For example, if my array looks like below:

[23, 45, 12, 67]

And the response from my AJAX call is 34 , I want the updated array to be like the following:

[34, 23, 45, 12, 67]

Currently I am planning to do it like this:

var newArray = [];
newArray.push(response);

for (var i = 0; i < theArray.length; i++) {
    newArray.push(theArray[i]);
}

theArray = newArray;
delete newArray;

Is there any better way to do this? Does JavaScript have any built-in functionality that does this?

The complexity of my method is O(n) and it would be really interesting to see better implementations.

Use unshift . It's like push , except it adds elements to the beginning of the array instead of the end.

unshift / push - add an element to the beginning/end of an array

shift / pop - remove and return the first/last element of and array

A simple diagram...

   unshift -> array <- push
   shift   <- array -> pop

and chart:

          add  remove  start  end
   push    X                   X
    pop           X            X
unshift    X             X
  shift           X      X

Check out the MDN Array documentation. Virtually every language that has the ability to push/pop elements from an array will also have the ability to unshift/shift (sometimes called push_front / pop_front ) elements, you should never have to implement these yourself.

var a = [23, 45, 12, 67];
a.unshift(34);
console.log(a); // [34, 23, 45, 12, 67]

With ES6 , use the spread operator ... :

DEMO

var arr = [23, 45, 12, 67];
arr = [34, ...arr]; // RESULT : [34,23, 45, 12, 67]

console.log(arr)
