title: unzip
tags: array,intermediate

Creates an array of arrays, ungrouping the elements in an array produced by [zip](/js/s/zip).
- Use `Math.max()`, `Function.prototype.apply()` to get the longest subarray in the array, `Array.prototype.map()` to make each element an array.
- Use `Array.prototype.reduce()` and `Array.prototype.forEach()` to map grouped values to individual arrays.
```js
const unzip = arr =>
arr.reduce(
(acc, val) => (val.forEach((v, i) => acc[i].push(v)), acc),
Array.from({
length: Math.max(...arr.map(x => x.length))
}).map(x => [])
);
```
```js
unzip([['a', 1, true], ['b', 2, false]]); // [['a', 'b'], [1, 2], [true, false]]
unzip([['a', 1, true], ['b', 2]]); // [['a', 'b'], [1, 2], [true]]
```
