Understanding Object Method In Javascript.
In JavaScript, an object is a containers for named values called properties. E.g. a generator. All generator have the same properties, but the property values differ from generator to generator. All generators have the same method, but the methods are performed at different times while a variable is an address or a location memory where you can store any value. E.g. a box in which you can store different items at different times. Object are variable too but object can contain many values. Eg.
Const generator = {type:’’Fireman’’, model: ‘’310'’; color: ‘’red’’};
The value are written as name:value pairs (name and value separated by a colon).
4 Types of JavaScript method
1. Object.Keys() :- it create an array containing the keys of an object. E.g.
Const num = {
One : 1,
Two : 2,
Three: 3,
}
Console.log(object.keys(num)); / / [‘one’, ‘two’, ‘three’ ]
2. Object.values() :- it create an array containing the values of an object. E.g.
Const num = {
One : 1,
Two : 2,
Three: 3,
}
Console.log(object.keys(num)); / / [1,2,3]
3. Object.enteries():- it’s used to create a nested array of the key/value pairs of an object. Eg.
Const num = {
One : 1,
Two : 2,
Three: 3,
}
Console.log(object.entries(num));
/ / Expected output :
// [ [‘one’, 1], [‘two’, 2], [‘three’ 3] ]
4. Object.Seal():- it prevent new properties from being added to an object, but allows the modification of existing properties.
Const user = {
Username: ‘something’,
Password: ‘vmfmbdsmckjrkm’
};
// seal the object
Const newuser = object.seal(user);
newUser.password = ‘************’
newUser.active = true;
console.log(newUser);
*/ Expected output
{username: ‘something’, password: ‘*******’}
