This approach involves iterating over the array using a loop and extracting subarrays using slicing. The loop increments by the chunk size in each iteration, thus effectively slicing the array into chunks of the desired size.
Time Complexity: O(n), where n is the number of elements in the array.
Space Complexity: O(n), storing the entire chunked array requires space proportional to the input size.

The chunkArray method iterates through the array with a step of size. Within each iteration, an inner loop collects elements into a subarray until either size elements are collected or the end of the array is reached.
This approach uses simple arithmetic operations to determine when to create a new subarray. Using the modulus operator allows checking if the number of currently collected elements is equal to the chunk size, upon which a new subarray is started.
Time Complexity: O(n), where n is the number of elements in the array.
Space Complexity: O(n), because the additional space needed is proportional to the input size.

5 chunk.push(elem);
6 if (chunk.length === size) {

12 return chunked;
