Returning results from multiple functions in JavaScript [duplicate]

Question

I am trying to return the results of 2 functions, but I am not succeeding. I am doing the following:

var x = getFunctionResults1(items);
var y = getFunctionResults2(items);
return {x,y}

But getting this output:

[ { x: [ [Object], [Object], [Object], [Object], [Object] ],
    y: [ [Object] ] },
  { x: [ [Object], [Object] ], y: [ [Object] ] } ]

You could use an array as result object for two functions, like

return [getFunctionResults1(functionResults1), getFunctionResults2(functionResults2)];

or use an object for the parts with a key, like

return {
    result1: getFunctionResults1(functionResults1),
    result2: getFunctionResults2(functionResults2)]
};
