Is there a better way? I have added the following to the String.protoype:
// str.whereIn(['cat', 'dog, 'mouse']);
String.prototype.whereIn = function(stringArray){
var a = stringArray.indexOf(this.valueOf());
return a>-1;
};

1In single line without creating new variable `return stringArray.indexOf(this.valueOf()) > -1` – Tushar Oct 01 '15 at 17:16

The expected return is a boolean. – ssoward Oct 01 '15 at 17:16

@ssoward You'll get boolean result, the comparison `> -1` returns `true/false` – Tushar Oct 01 '15 at 17:17
