I've two arrays in javascript code. I want to use element of the array x as index for the array y.
You can see I've numbers in the array x, so is there any possible and easy way I can do it.
<script>
var x = [1,2,3,4,6]
var y = ["kin","kim","jong","ving","gon","von","rick"]
</script>
like
y+x[4] //(not a code just for idea)
must print "rick".
I tried
y+x[4] //I know that's stupid
but its not working. Please provide answer in javascript.
You should read about MDN - Array more.
var x = [1,2,3,4,6]
var y = ["kin","kim","jong","ving","gon","von","rick"]
var index = x[4]; //6
console.log(y[index]); // at index 6, value is "rick"
Or
y[x[4]] // "rick"
Just pass x[4] as the index to y
i.e y[x[4]], which outputs "rick."
I would use another type of data structure, hashes which stores key value pairs and is appropriate for your use:
var x = { 0: "Kin",
1: "kim",
2: "jong",
3: "vin",
4: "gon",
5: "von",
6: "rich" }
Then to access the data you can do something like this:
x[1] // "kim"
or
x[4] // "gon"
y[x[4]]
