How to store objects in array?

Question

I have two arrays and I want to store them in an array and create them as an object.

const name = ["Amy", "Robert", "Sofie"];
const age = ["21", "28", "25"];

The output I want is:

const person =[{name: 'Amy', age: '21'}, {name: 'Robert', age: '28'}, {name: 'Sofie', age: '25'}];

Is there a way to loop through it to make it like this, since my array is quite long and entering it manually would be cumbersome. Thanks.

Answer 1

Since the length of the two arrays is the same, it can be achieved using the map function.

const name = ["Amy", "Robert", "Sofie"];
const age = ["21", "28", "25"];

const person = name.map((nameValue, index) => {
  const ageValue = age[index];
  return { name: nameValue, age: ageValue };
});

console.log(person);

Answer 2

You can use Array.map like this:

const names = ["Amy", "Robert", "Sofie"];
const ages = ["21", "28", "25"];

const persons = names.map((name, i) => ({name, age: ages[i]}));

console.log(persons)
