Sometimes, we want to create multi-dimensional associative arrays in JavaScript.
In this article, we’ll look at how to create multi-dimensional associative arrays in JavaScript.
How to create multi-dimensional associative arrays in JavaScript?
To create multi-dimensional associative arrays in JavaScript, we can create a nested object.
For instance, we write
const myObj = {
fred: { apples: 2, oranges: 4, bananas: 7, melons: 0 },
mary: { apples: 0, oranges: 10, bananas: 0, melons: 0 },
sarah: { apples: 0, oranges: 0, bananas: 0, melons: 5 },
};
console.log(myObj["fred"]["apples"]);
to create the myObj object.
In it, we add the fred, mary and sarah properties.
And we set them to objects with the apples, oranges, bananas and melons properties.
Then we get a nested property with myObj["fred"]["apples"].
Conclusion
To create multi-dimensional associative arrays in JavaScript, we can create a nested object.
