How to create an individual array from an array of object

Question

How do I split an array into individual array: [1,2,3,4,5] => [1][2][3][4][5]

The array of objects is gotten from a backend API

const arr = [
  {
    id: '1',
    name: 'Emmanuel',
    ...
  },
  {
    id: '1',
    name: 'Emmanuel',
    ...
  }
]

Doing arr.map(a => a.id) gave me [1,2,...], now how do I get individual array from the ids: [1][2]

I think you need to give more clarity to the question because the answer from @NinaScholz would seem correct currently. — Fasani, Apr 20 '20 at 19:57
Does this answer your question? [How to split a long array into smaller arrays, with JavaScript](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/7273668/how-to-split-a-long-array-into-smaller-arrays-with-javascript). In this case, the size of the "smaller arrays" is 1. — Heretic Monkey, Apr 20 '20 at 20:01

Just wrap the return value in an array and take a destructuring assignment into own targets.

let [t1, t2, t3, t4, t5] = arr.map(a => [a.id]);
