Answer 1

As of Angular 8+ you can use clear() to remove all controls in the FormArray:

const arr = new FormArray([
   new FormControl(),
   new FormControl()
]);
console.log(arr.length);  // 2

arr.clear();
console.log(arr.length);  // 0

For previous versions the recommended way is:

while (arr.length) {
   arr.removeAt(0);
}
