TypedArray.prototype.fill()
Baseline Widely available
This feature is well established and works across many devices and browser versions. It’s been available across browsers since September 2016.
Thefill() method ofTypedArray instances changes all elements within a range of indices in a typed array to a static value. It returns the modified typed array. This method has the same algorithm asArray.prototype.fill().
Try it
const uint8 = new Uint8Array([0, 0, 0, 0]);// Value, start position, end positionuint8.fill(4, 1, 3);console.log(uint8);// Expected output: Uint8Array [0, 4, 4, 0]Syntax

Examples
Using fill()
js
new Uint8Array([1, 2, 3]).fill(4); // Uint8Array [4, 4, 4]new Uint8Array([1, 2, 3]).fill(4, 1); // Uint8Array [1, 4, 4]new Uint8Array([1, 2, 3]).fill(4, 1, 2); // Uint8Array [1, 4, 3]new Uint8Array([1, 2, 3]).fill(4, 1, 1); // Uint8Array [1, 2, 3]new Uint8Array([1, 2, 3]).fill(4, -3, -2); // Uint8Array [4, 2, 3]Specifications
