javaScript Loop Through Array of Objects

javaScript Loop Through Array of Objects

JavaScript Array.forEach() function; In this tutorial, you will learn all about JavaScript array forEach() Method & how to use this method.

JavaScript array.forEach()

To iterate through an array of objects in JavaScript, you can use the forEach() method along with and without the for loop.

Let’s See the following:

let nums = [1, 2, 3, 4]; 

And want to call a function on each element of an array, at that time, you use javascript for loop statement.

For example, see the following code:

let nums = [1, 2, 3, 4]; 
for (let i = 0; i < nums.length; i++) {
    console.log(nums[i]);
}

Output:

1
2
3
4

javascript array provides a method which is forEach(), this method permits the call of a function on each element of an array in an easy way.

See the following example:

let nums = [1, 2, 3, 4]; 
nums.forEach(function (e) {
    console.log(e);
});

Output:

1
2
3
4

The following represents the syntax of the forEach() method:

array.forEach(function(currentValue, index, arr), thisValue)
  • currentValue:- Value of the current element in array
  • index:- index of the current element in array
  • arr:- array object the current element belongs to.

This is not chainable like other iterative methods like: filter(), map(), some(), every(), and sort(), returns undefined.

Example 1: forEach() with numeric array

 var num = [18, 12, 10, 15];
 num.forEach(function(item) {
    document.writeln(item);
 });

Output

 // return 

18 12 10 15

How it works:

  • Define an array of with numeric elements.
  • After that, call the forEach() method on the num array. And print each element from array using document.writeln.

Example 2: forEach() with push()

var num = [2, 5, 10, 12];
var newArr = [];

num.forEach(function(num){
  newArr.push(num*num);
});

document.writeln(newArr);

Output

Output
// return

4,25,100,144

Note : The JavaScript Example to calculate square root of given numbers in array.

How it works:

  • First define an array with numbers.
  • Then, declare a new array newArr.
  • After that, call the forEach() method on the num array. Inside the callback function, calculate square root of the element and push value into newArr array using push() method.
  • Finally, print the new array with square root values.

Conclusion

In this tutorial, you have learned how to use the JavaScript Array forEach() method and to call a callback on each element of a javascript array.
