jquery make single variables from returned array

Question

Hello I have a function and I would like to make variables from returned array, is it possible?

var food,car=getItems();

function getItems(){
     var array=["pizza","audi"];
     return array;
}

Are you trying to assign pizza to food and audi to car? — j08691

Just wrap your variables in [] to use destructuring assignment (no jQuery needed):

var [food,car]=getItems();

var [food,car]=getItems();

function getItems(){
     var array=["pizza","audi"];
     return array;
}

console.log(food,car)
