I have value an array like this:
multi_arr = ["resi_spec","resi_desc"];
So each array value is considered as a variable and I want to store some value of these variables dynamically like this:
resi_spec = "good morning"
resi_desc = "good evening";
So that the array values are converted as variables. Is this possible?
I don't want use use obj[resi_spec] like this and i used array not variable if i just enter resi_spec means , i'll get good morning.
You could use an object to hold the values:
var multi_arr = ["resi_spec","resi_desc"];
var resi = {};
multi_arr.forEach(function(val) {
resi[val] = "good morning";
});Obviously you will want to set different values for each object attribute which you could accomplish with a helper function:
var lookupHelper = function(key) {
if (key == 'resi_spec') return 'good morning';
if (key == 'resi_desc') return 'good evening';
};
var multi_arr = ["resi_spec","resi_desc"];
var resi = {};
multi_arr.forEach(function(val) {
resi[val] = lookupHelper(val);
});
forEach method is going to be quite useless if you want to have different values. However you could use another array for those…
You could also do the following.. Although not really recommended, since you will be creating global variables. Jsfiddle
var varNames = ["name1", "name2", "name3"];
for(var i = 0; i < varNames.length; i++){
window[varNames[i]] = i;
}
console.log(name1); // 0
console.log(name2); // 1
console.log(name3); // 2
The best way is having an object like bellow
multi_arr = ["resi_spec","resi_desc"];
var obj = {};
obj[multi_arr[0]] = "good morning";
obj[multi_arr[1]] = "good evening";
console.log(obj); //prints Object {resi_spec: "good morning", resi_desc: "good evening"})
you can access variables like bellow
console.log(obj["resi_spec"]); //prints "good morning";
console.log(obj["resi_desc"]); //prints "good evening";
Okay, so I misunderstood your question, so here is my edited response.
var multi_arr = ["resi_spec","resi_desc"];
var object = {};
object[multi_arr[0]] = "good morning";
object[multi_arr[1]] = "good evening";
console.log(object);
"good morning"and""good evening"?globalorwindow); 2) you can use variable in bracket notation.
