I have two arrays, e.g. : Note: Element 'total' is static and exist in arrays in every case.

let array1 = ['duck', 'bird', 'dog', 'total'] 
let array1 = ['pool', 'total', 'cat', 'run', 'kid', 'bike']

I want to use let isValid = array1.some(element => array2.includes(element)) method, but in its pure form it returns true when find first equal elements. I want to skip the static element, wich in this case is 'total'.

  • Use the linked questions' answer https://stackoverflow.com/a/39893636/2715716 but do `array.filter(item => item !== 'total')` first to remove the static element from both arrays before doing the comparison. – Tomáš Hübelbauer Feb 01 '23 at 11:18
  • or `const found = arr1.some(r => r !== 'total' && arr2.includes(r))` – mplungjan Feb 01 '23 at 11:20
