The delete
JavaScript operator is used to delete a property from an object.
Say you have this object:
const car = {
model: 'Fiesta',
color: 'green'
}
You can delete any property from it, or method, using the delete
operator:
delete car.model
You can also reference the property/method using the brackets syntax:
delete car['color']
