map function is javascript 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

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

listFruits()

Example 3: how the map function works javascript

const array = [2, 5, 9];
let squares = array.map((num) => num * num);

console.log(array); // [2, 5, 9]
console.log(squares); // [4, 25, 81]

Example 4: functions in map javascript

const map = new Map();

function foo() {
 return "Hello World!"; 
}

map.set("foo", foo);

console.log(map.get("foo")()); // Output: "Hello World!

Example 5: map javascript

var kvArray = [["clave1", "valor1"], ["clave2", "valor2"]];

// El constructor por defecto de Map para transforar un Array 2D (clave-valor) en un mapa
var miMapa = new Map(kvArray);

miMapa.get("clave1"); // devuelve "valor1"

// Usando la función Array.from para transformar el mapa a un Array 2D clave-valor.
console.log(Array.from(miMapa)); // Muestra exactamente el mismo Array que kvArray

// O usando los iteradores de claves o valores y convirtiendo a array.
console.log(Array.from(miMapa.keys())); // Muestra ["clave1", "clave2"]

Example 6: js map function

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