javascript Map to Array 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: array map javascript

const array1 = [1, 4, 9, 16];

// pass a function to map
const map1 = array1.map(x => x * 2);

console.log(map1);
// expected output: Array [2, 8, 18, 32]

Example 3: javascript array transform

const array1 = [1, 4, 9, 16];

// pass a function to map
const map1 = array1.map(x => x * 2);

console.log(map1);
// expected output: Array [2, 8, 18, 32]

Example 4: javascript map

function listFruits() {
  let fruits = ["apple", "cherry", "pear"]
  
  fruits.map((fruit, index) => {
    console.log(index, fruit)
  })
}

listFruits()

Example 5: arrow function map js

const exampleArray = ['aa','bbc','ccdd'];
console.log(exampleArray.map(a => a.length));
//Would print out [2,3,4]

Example 6: map a keys from an array in a separate arraylist javascript

const myUsers = [
    { name: 'shark', likes: 'ocean' },
    { name: 'turtle', likes: 'pond' },
    { name: 'otter', likes: 'fish biscuits' }
]

const usersByLikes = myUsers.map(item => {
    const container = {};

    container[item.name] = item.likes;
    container.age = item.name.length * 10;

    return container;
})

console.log(usersByLikes);
