slice pipe

This is the documentation for Angular 6.
You can switch to the latest version Angular 9.

Creates a new Array or String containing a subset (slice) of the elements.

All behavior is based on the expected behavior of the JavaScript API Array.prototype.slice() and String.prototype.slice().

When operating on an Array, the returned Array is always a copy even when all the elements are being returned.

When operating on a blank value, the pipe returns the blank value.
