How to break out of the forEach in Javascript/NodeJS

It’s simple.

Use “some” or “every” instead of “forEach”

Use of Array.prototype.some

The some() method checks if at least one element of the array meets the condition implemented by the function provided.

Example:

The result should look like:

1
2
"Result:" true

“Result:” false
