Javascript Tutorial #4.2 - Changing Arrays

Arrays are very useful, but they're nowhere near as useful as they would be if you could change them. So, here is how you change the values in arrays:

To access a certain object in an array, you type:
<arrayName>[no];
where 'arrayName' is the name of the array that you are changing, and 'no' is the number that defines what thing you are changing.

Array numbers work as follows:
take the following: let arr = ['elephant', 'ostrich', 'tiger', 'penguin'];
Then elephant is number 0
Ostrich is number 1
Tiger is Number 2
And so on.
It is important that you remember that arrays start on 0 and not 1.
Arrays also have a lot of different functions that can be called on them, for which the documentation can be found here
NOTE: For now, alot of that might not make 100% sense, but as you continue to read these tutorials you will understand them more and more.
CHALLENGE: Take your answer from the previous challenge and change the last animal to 'alpaca' using code.
