What is the arguments object in JavaScript?

Can you explain what the arguments object is in JavaScript?

Sure! The arguments object is an array-like object available within functions that contains the values of the arguments passed to that function.

Is it the same as an array?

Not exactly. While it looks like an array, it doesn't have array methods like push or pop. You can access its elements using indices.

How can I convert it to a real array?

You can convert it to an array using Array.from(arguments) or the spread operator: const argsArray = [...arguments];.

Are there any limitations to using the arguments object?

Yes, it doesn't work in arrow functions, and it doesn't have a length property like a true array. It's also not available in strict mode.
