array javascript mapa code example

Example 1: javascript map array

const myArray = ['Sam', 'Alice', 'Nick', 'Matt'];

// Appends text to each element of the array
const newArray = myArray.map(name => {
	return 'My name is ' + name; 
});
console.log(newArray); // ['My name is Sam', 'My Name is Alice', ...]

// Appends the index of each element with it's value
const anotherArray = myArray.map((value, index) => index + ": " + value);
console.log(anotherArray); // ['0: Sam', '1: Alice', '2: Nick', ...]

// Starting array is unchanged
console.log(myArray); // ['Sam', 'Alice', 'Nick', 'Matt']

Example 2: javascript map

array.map((item) => {
  return item * 2
} // an example that will map through a a list of items and return a new array with the item multiplied by 2

Example 3: how to use the map method in javascript

const numbers = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]; 

const bigNumbers = numbers.map(number => {
  return number * 10;
});

Example 4: javascript map array

const sweetArray = [2, 3, 4, 5, 35]
const sweeterArray = sweetArray.map(sweetItem => {
    return sweetItem * 2
})

console.log(sweeterArray)

Example 5: array map

let numbers = [1, 2, 3, 4]
let filteredNumbers = numbers.map(function(_, index) {
  if (index < 3) {
     return num
  }
})
// index goes from 0, so the filterNumbers are 1,2,3 and undefined.
// filteredNumbers is [1, 2, 3, undefined]
// numbers is still [1, 2, 3, 4]

Example 6: array map

let numbers = [1, 4, 9]
let roots = numbers.map(function(num) {
    return Math.sqrt(num)
})
// roots is now     [1, 2, 3]
// numbers is still [1, 4, 9]
