nthElement

Returns the nth element of an array.

Use Array.slice() to get an array containing the nth element at the first place. If the index is out of bounds, return []. Omit the second argument, n, to get the first element of the array.

const nthElement = (arr, n = 0) => (n > 0 ? arr.slice(n, n + 1) : arr.slice(n))[0];
nthElement(['a','b','c'],1) // 'b'
nthElement(['a','b','b'],-3) // 'a'
