Array returning 1 after pushing an item to the array in javascript

Question

I am pushing a string to a string. But, after returning the array surprisingly I am getting the "1". I inspected this carefully, array is creating but before returning it is returning just 1. Following is my code:

Yes, 1 is the expected value, push returns the new length of the array. — Teemu

Oh, great for clarifying this. But, if I want the array in return what will be the procedure? — Abhijit Mondal Abhi

you can try returning arr by return arr, becasue you have updated arr in arr only — shashikant kuswaha

arr.push() - return the new array length

So, if you have empty array after push this.alertMessage - you get 1(arr.length)
