### <a id="_findindexarray-callbackidentity-thisarg"></a>`_.findIndex(array, [callback=identity], [thisArg])`
<a href="#_findindexarray-callbackidentity-thisarg">#</a> [&#x24C8;](https://github.com/lodash/lodash/blob/master/lodash.js#L4405 "View in source") [&#x24C9;][1]

This method is like `_.find` except that it returns the index of the first element that passes the callback check, instead of the element itself.

If a property name is provided for `callback` the created "_.pluck" style callback will return the property value of the given element.

If an object is provided for `callback` the created "_.where" style callback will return `true` for elements that have the properties of the given object, else `false`.

#### Arguments
1. `array` *(Array)*: The array to search.
2. `[callback=identity]` *(Function|Object|string)*: The function called per iteration. If a property name or object is provided it will be used to create a "_.pluck" or "_.where" style callback, respectively.
3. `[thisArg]` *(&#42;)*: The `this` binding of `callback`.

#### Returns
*(number)*: Returns the index of the found element, else `-1`.

#### Example
```js
var characters = [
  { 'name': 'barney',  'age': 36, 'blocked': false },
  { 'name': 'fred',    'age': 40, 'blocked': true },
  { 'name': 'pebbles', 'age': 1,  'blocked': false }
];

_.findIndex(characters, function(chr) {
  return chr.age < 20;
});
// => 2

// using "_.where" callback shorthand
_.findIndex(characters, { 'age': 36 });
// => 0

// using "_.pluck" callback shorthand
_.findIndex(characters, 'blocked');
// => 1
```

### <a id="_findlastindexarray-callbackidentity-thisarg"></a>`_.findLastIndex(array, [callback=identity], [thisArg])`
<a href="#_findlastindexarray-callbackidentity-thisarg">#</a> [&#x24C8;](https://github.com/lodash/lodash/blob/master/lodash.js#L4459 "View in source") [&#x24C9;][1]

This method is like `_.findIndex` except that it iterates over elements of a `collection` from right to left.

If a property name is provided for `callback` the created "_.pluck" style callback will return the property value of the given element.

If an object is provided for `callback` the created "_.where" style callback will return `true` for elements that have the properties of the given object, else `false`.

#### Arguments
1. `array` *(Array)*: The array to search.
2. `[callback=identity]` *(Function|Object|string)*: The function called per iteration. If a property name or object is provided it will be used to create a "_.pluck" or "_.where" style callback, respectively.
3. `[thisArg]` *(&#42;)*: The `this` binding of `callback`.

#### Returns
*(number)*: Returns the index of the found element, else `-1`.

#### Example
```js
var characters = [
  { 'name': 'barney',  'age': 36, 'blocked': true },
  { 'name': 'fred',    'age': 40, 'blocked': false },
  { 'name': 'pebbles', 'age': 1,  'blocked': true }
];

_.findLastIndex(characters, function(chr) {
  return chr.age > 30;
});
// => 1

// using "_.where" callback shorthand
_.findLastIndex(characters, { 'age': 36 });
// => 0

// using "_.pluck" callback shorthand
_.findLastIndex(characters, 'blocked');
// => 2
```

Gets the first element or first `n` elements of an array. If a callback is provided elements at the beginning of the array are returned as long as the callback returns truey. The callback is bound to `thisArg` and invoked with three arguments; *(value, index, array)*.

If a property name is provided for `callback` the created "_.pluck" style callback will return the property value of the given element.

If an object is provided for `callback` the created "_.where" style callback will return `true` for elements that have the properties of the given object, else `false`.

#### Aliases
*_.head, _.take*

#### Arguments
1. `array` *(Array)*: The array to query.
2. `[callback]` *(Function|Object|number|string)*: The function called per element or the number of elements to return. If a property name or object is provided it will be used to create a "_.pluck" or "_.where" style callback, respectively.
3. `[thisArg]` *(&#42;)*: The `this` binding of `callback`.

#### Returns
*(&#42;)*: Returns the first element(s) of `array`.

#### Example
```js
_.first([1, 2, 3]);
// => 1

_.first([1, 2, 3], 2);
// => [1, 2]

_.first([1, 2, 3], function(num) {
  return num < 3;
});

Flattens a nested array *(the nesting can be to any depth)*. If `isShallow` is truey, the array will only be flattened a single level. If a callback is provided each element of the array is passed through the callback before flattening. The callback is bound to `thisArg` and invoked with three arguments; *(value, index, array)*.

If a property name is provided for `callback` the created "_.pluck" style callback will return the property value of the given element.

If an object is provided for `callback` the created "_.where" style callback will return `true` for elements that have the properties of the given object, else `false`.

#### Arguments
1. `array` *(Array)*: The array to flatten.
2. `[isShallow=false]` *(boolean)*: A flag to restrict flattening to a single level.
3. `[callback=identity]` *(Function|Object|string)*: The function called per iteration. If a property name or object is provided it will be used to create a "_.pluck" or "_.where" style callback, respectively.
4. `[thisArg]` *(&#42;)*: The `this` binding of `callback`.

#### Returns
*(Array)*: Returns a new flattened array.

#### Example
```js
_.flatten([1, [2], [3, [[4]]]]);
// => [1, 2, 3, 4];

_.flatten([1, [2], [3, [[4]]]], true);
// => [1, 2, 3, [[4]]];

var characters = [
  { 'name': 'barney', 'age': 30, 'pets': ['hoppy'] },
  { 'name': 'fred',   'age': 40, 'pets': ['baby puss', 'dino'] }
];

// using "_.pluck" callback shorthand

## `“Chaining” Methods`

<!-- div -->

### <a id="_value"></a>`_(value)`
<a href="#_value">#</a> [&#x24C8;](https://github.com/lodash/lodash/blob/master/lodash.js#L652 "View in source") [&#x24C9;][1]

Creates a `lodash` object which wraps the given value to enable intuitive method chaining.

In addition to Lo-Dash methods, wrappers also have the following `Array` methods:<br>
`concat`, `join`, `pop`, `push`, `reverse`, `shift`, `slice`, `sort`, `splice`, and `unshift`

Chaining is supported in custom builds as long as the `value` method is implicitly or explicitly included in the build.

The chainable wrapper functions are:<br>
`after`, `assign`, `bind`, `bindAll`, `bindKey`, `chain`, `compact`, `compose`, `concat`, `countBy`, `create`, `createCallback`, `curry`, `debounce`, `defaults`, `defer`, `delay`, `difference`, `filter`, `flatten`, `forEach`, `forEachRight`, `forIn`, `forInRight`, `forOwn`, `forOwnRight`, `functions`, `groupBy`, `indexBy`, `initial`, `intersection`, `invert`, `invoke`, `keys`, `map`, `max`, `memoize`, `merge`, `min`, `object`, `omit`, `once`, `pairs`, `partial`, `partialRight`, `pick`, `pluck`, `pull`, `push`, `range`, `reject`, `remove`, `rest`, `reverse`, `shuffle`, `slice`, `sort`, `sortBy`, `splice`, `tap`, `throttle`, `times`, `toArray`, `transform`, `union`, `uniq`, `unshift`, `unzip`, `values`, `where`, `without`, `wrap`, and `zip`

The non-chainable wrapper functions are:<br>
`clone`, `cloneDeep`, `contains`, `escape`, `every`, `find`, `findIndex`, `findKey`, `findLast`, `findLastIndex`, `findLastKey`, `has`, `identity`, `indexOf`, `isArguments`, `isArray`, `isBoolean`, `isDate`, `isElement`, `isEmpty`, `isEqual`, `isFinite`, `isFunction`, `isNaN`, `isNull`, `isNumber`, `isObject`, `isPlainObject`, `isRegExp`, `isString`, `isUndefined`, `join`, `lastIndexOf`, `mixin`, `noConflict`, `parseInt`, `pop`, `random`, `reduce`, `reduceRight`, `result`, `shift`, `size`, `some`, `sortedIndex`, `runInContext`, `template`, `unescape`, `uniqueId`, and `value`

The wrapper functions `first` and `last` return wrapped values when `n` is provided, otherwise they return unwrapped values.

Explicit chaining can be enabled by using the `_.chain` method.

#### Arguments
1. `value` *(&#42;)*: The value to wrap in a `lodash` instance.

#### Returns
*(Object)*: Returns a `lodash` instance.

#### Example
```js
var wrapped = _([1, 2, 3]);

// returns an unwrapped value
wrapped.reduce(function(sum, num) {
  return sum + num;
});
// => 6

// returns a wrapped value
var squares = wrapped.map(function(num) {
  return num * num;
});

_.isArray(squares);
// => false

_.isArray(squares.value());
// => true
```

If an object is provided for `callback` the created "_.where" style callback will return `true` for elements that have the properties of the given object, else `false`.

#### Arguments
1. `collection` *(Array|Object|string)*: The collection to iterate over.
2. `[callback=identity]` *(Function|Object|string)*: The function called per iteration. If a property name or object is provided it will be used to create a "_.pluck" or "_.where" style callback, respectively.
3. `[thisArg]` *(&#42;)*: The `this` binding of `callback`.

#### Returns
*(Array)*: Returns a new array of sorted elements.

#### Example
```js
_.sortBy([1, 2, 3], function(num) { return Math.sin(num); });
// => [3, 1, 2]

_.sortBy([1, 2, 3], function(num) { return this.sin(num); }, Math);
// => [3, 1, 2]

// using "_.pluck" callback shorthand
_.sortBy(['banana', 'strawberry', 'apple'], 'length');
// => ['apple', 'banana', 'strawberry']
```

#### Arguments
1. `object` *(Object)*: The destination object.
2. `[source]` *(...Object)*: The source objects.

#### Returns
*(Object)*: Returns the destination object.

This method is like `_.findIndex` except that it returns the key of the first element that passes the callback check, instead of the element itself.

If a property name is provided for `callback` the created "_.pluck" style callback will return the property value of the given element.

If an object is provided for `callback` the created "_.where" style callback will return `true` for elements that have the properties of the given object, else `false`.

#### Arguments
1. `object` *(Object)*: The object to search.
2. `[callback=identity]` *(Function|Object|string)*: The function called per iteration. If a property name or object is provided it will be used to create a "_.pluck" or "_.where" style callback, respectively.
3. `[thisArg]` *(&#42;)*: The `this` binding of `callback`.

#### Returns
*(string, undefined)*: Returns the key of the found element, else `undefined`.

#### Example
```js
var characters = {
  'barney': {  'age': 36, 'blocked': false },
  'fred': {    'age': 40, 'blocked': true },
  'pebbles': { 'age': 1,  'blocked': false }
};

_.findKey(characters, function(chr) {
  return chr.age < 40;
});
// => 'barney' (property order is not guaranteed across environments)

// using "_.where" callback shorthand
_.findKey(characters, { 'age': 1 });
// => 'pebbles'

// using "_.pluck" callback shorthand
_.findKey(characters, 'blocked');
// => 'fred'

This method is like `_.findKey` except that it iterates over elements of a `collection` in the opposite order.

If a property name is provided for `callback` the created "_.pluck" style callback will return the property value of the given element.

If an object is provided for `callback` the created "_.where" style callback will return `true` for elements that have the properties of the given object, else `false`.

#### Arguments
1. `object` *(Object)*: The object to search.
2. `[callback=identity]` *(Function|Object|string)*: The function called per iteration. If a property name or object is provided it will be used to create a "_.pluck" or "_.where" style callback, respectively.
3. `[thisArg]` *(&#42;)*: The `this` binding of `callback`.

#### Returns
*(string, undefined)*: Returns the key of the found element, else `undefined`.

#### Example
```js
var characters = {
  'barney': {  'age': 36, 'blocked': true },
  'fred': {    'age': 40, 'blocked': false },
  'pebbles': { 'age': 1,  'blocked': true }
};

_.findLastKey(characters, function(chr) {
  return chr.age < 40;
});
// => returns `pebbles`, assuming `_.findKey` returns `barney`

// using "_.where" callback shorthand
_.findLastKey(characters, { 'age': 40 });
// => 'fred'

// using "_.pluck" callback shorthand
_.findLastKey(characters, 'blocked');
