Answer by rlib for How do I check if an array includes a value in JavaScript?

One can use Set that has the method "has()":

function contains(arr, obj) {
  var proxy = new Set(arr);
  if (proxy.has(obj))
    return true;
  else
    return false;
}

var arr = ['Happy', 'New', 'Year'];
console.log(contains(arr, 'Happy'));
