can we use object properties and method in an array?

Question

As I am a beginner and I saw few videos on youtube they are saying basically everything is an object even an array also so I just want to know can we use object properties and methods in an array

`arr.push()` is using an array method. `arr.length` is an array property. You *could* add your own methods and properties but most of the time it's a bad idea. — VLAZ, May 04 '21 at 14:55
Yes. Indeed, arrays are objects, so you can do `[1, 2, 3].length` (property) and get `3`, or `[1, 2, 3].push(4)` (method) and update your array — GusSL, May 04 '21 at 14:56

Indeed an Array is a particular type of object:

const arr = [];

console.log(typeof arr); // object

console.log(arr instanceof Array); // true (This particular object is an instance of Array)

console.log(typeof arr.push); // function (Array method)

console.log(typeof arr.length); // number (Array property)

can we use object properties and method in an array?
