Creating Arrays Dynamically, Need Help Looping An Array To Make Arrays. : (

Similar Tutorials

View Content

I need to loop the alphabet and numbers 0-9 to initialize a few thousand arrays.
This is for my site and is truly needed. http://www.thefreemenu.com
I currently have every array written out and it takes up to much space in my .js file.
The majority of my variables are empty but necessary and need to be there (including empty) for my site to work properly.

Question is the last part

Here's where I'm at.

Code:

var NewVarLetterOrNum = "a";
eval("_oneofseveralnames_" + NewVarLetterOrNum + "='this part works';");
alert(_oneofseveralnames_a);

This creates the variable _oneofseveralnames_a='this part works'

Code:

var newArrayLetterOrNum = "a";
eval("_oneofseveralnames_" + newArrayLetterOrNum + "= new Array();"); 
alert(_oneofseveralnames_a)

This creates the Array _oneofseveralnames_a=new Array(); and all the values in the array are null,
but, now a variable like _nl_a[1]='something' can be used elsewhere because the array exists. This is all that is necessary for now
because I can probably set all the variables to be blank with something like

Code:

i=1
while(i<=20){
_oneofseveralnames_a[i]="1-20";
i++
}
alert(_oneofseveralnames_[20]);

So now you have what I came to understand in the first few hours. Now to the hard part : (

I can't make multiple array's dynamically. I dont' know if its because I don't understand loops or arrays or what and its very fustrating. As for any answer you might be so kind as to provide, if you could dumb it down that would be greatly appreciated.
Code:

var newArray =new Array('a','b','c','d','e','f','g','h','i','j','k','l','m','n','o','p','q','r','s','t','u','v','w','x','y','z')    
i=1
while(i<=26){
	eval("_nl_" + newArray[i] + "= new Array();");
	i++
}
alert(newArray[1]) // Is b, but
alert(_nl_b) //I can't get _nl_b to exist, I tried everything including taking away the quotes around the letters in every test

*/
var _nl_a =new Array()
var _img_a =new Array()
var _h_a =new Array()
var _r_a =new Array()
var _m_a =new Array()
var _yt_a =new Array()
var _i_a =new Array()

The above arrays are all the array _name_ parts I need but for example, a has 10 parts, a,p2_a,p3_a,.. p10_a. I need 10 pages for each letter of the alphabet and numbers 0-9 and a special all1, p2_all1 ... p10_all1. Overall 2200 arrays that need to be declared. Currently they are all written out.

Hi. I am fairly new to JavaScript.
I am having some troubles with arrays.
I am using Chrome 12 beta.

Here is a brief version of the code I am having trouble with
Code:

var array=new Array()
array[0]=new Array()
array[0][1]=new Array()

var array[0][1]=[
  3, 1, 4, 1, 5, 9, 2, 6, 5, ...
];

I do not want to use "array[0][1][n]" because my array has too many items to do that and it is just plain annoying to change the numbers that way.

I get an error on the "var buffers[0][1]=[" line saying:
"Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token ["

What is the problem in my code?

Thank you ahead of time.

Hi, new to this forum but have a quick question about arrays, I've been working on this all night, and I'm at a loss. I'm trying to calculate the gpa of a user by using arrays and functions. Everything seems to be working besides two things. The array that contains the class names (className[]) always includes an extra two variables: my sentinel value which is finish, and "undefined" The arrays at the end won't produce a number when multiplied together. creditData[] and qualityPoints[].
Also, if you have any suggestions on my code, I'd appreciate it.

Multiple Arrays

I have a quick question with multiple array and random numbers. If i generate my random numbers in one array, how would i take a selection of those numbers and put them in another array?

Ex: array 1: 25, 34, 38, 40, 22, 49

want to move numbers between 30 and 50 to another array.

array 2: 34, 38, 40, 49

is it as simple as for loops and if statements setting the conditions?
do i use a sorting method? (selection? bubble?)

any help would be appreciated.

Simpler Way To Use Arrays?

Hi again folks!

A code I did recently was that 10 football teams had to register and the program had to ask the question "please enter your team" ten times then show the display on screen.
This code works fine and does it jobs but I realized that I did this program a long winded way (shown below) :

<script type="text/javascript">

//ask to enter names
var enteredteam1= prompt("Please enter first team.", ""); //each team is shown as different variable
var enteredteam2= prompt("Please enter second team.", "");
var enteredteam3= prompt("Please enter third team.", "");
var enteredteam4= prompt("Please enter forth team.", "");
var enteredteam5= prompt("Please enter fifth team.", "");
var enteredteam6= prompt("Please enter sixth team.", "");
var enteredteam7= prompt("Please enter seventh team.", "");
var enteredteam8= prompt("Please enter eighth team.", "");
var enteredteam9= prompt("Please enter ninth team.", "");
var enteredteam10= prompt("Please enter final team.", "");

var team= [];

team[1]= enteredteam1 //the team should equal the entered value for the space
team[2]= enteredteam2
team[3]= enteredteam3
team[4]= enteredteam4
team[5]= enteredteam5
team[6]= enteredteam6
team[7]= enteredteam7
team[8]= enteredteam8
team[9]= enteredteam9
team[10]= enteredteam10

document.write("<h1>Registered Teams</h1>");

// display the teams on the screen beside number

document.write("<b>1.</b>" + team[1]); //write the entered value on the screen
document.write("<br><br><b>2.</b>" + team[2]);
document.write("<br><br><b>3.</b>" + team[3]);
document.write("<br><br><b>4.</b>" + team[4]);
document.write("<br><br><b>5.</b>" + team[5]);
document.write("<br><br><b>6.</b>" + team[6]);
document.write("<br><br><b>7.</b>" + team[7]);
document.write("<br><br><b>8.</b>" + team[8]);
document.write("<br><br><b>9.</b>" + team[9]);
document.write("<br><br><b>10.</b>" + team[10]);

</script>

I was wondering for future references could anyone suggest a simpler code to do something similar?
For instance what if I wanted to ask the question but I didn't know how many teams were going to be entered. It would ask the question (enter your team) until the user clicked on a button saying "finished" or something.

Once again, I am new to this field, so any code with comments would be helpful!

into a array that will randomly pull things from it like this
Code:

<input type = "button" value="Call Out a Target" onclick="myFunction()"></button>

<div id = "demo1"></div>
<div id = "demo2"></div>

<script type="text/javascript">

function shuffle(array) {
var n = array.length, k, t;
if (n == 0) {return false};
while (--n) {
k = Math.floor(Math.random() * (n+1));
t = array[n];
array[n] = array[k];
array[k] = t;
}
}


function myFunction() {

var myarray=["red","blue", "yellow", "orange"];
shuffle (myarray);

Question About Arrays

Do arrays retain its data outside of a function. The reason why i asked this is because i created a global array and then a function. In the function i assaigned values to the global array but when i try to access the global array it gives me a "undefined" or "null" error.

Code:

var myArray = new Array();
var count = 0; 
    
function populate(){
     for(i=0; i < 5; i++){
         myArray[i] = count++;
}

}

Compare 2 Arrays

I have 2 arrays and I would like to compare the 2 arrays.
If an element in array 1 is NOT in array 2 then I would like to display that element.

In this case, I should only display the letter "c" but it doesn't work and I don't know why??
Here's my code:

Code:

<html><head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function getValue(id){
   var x=new Array("a","b","c","d","e");
   var y=new Array("a","b","3","d","e");
   var str="";

   for (var i=0; i<x.length; i++){
      for (var j=0; j<y.length; j++){
         if (x[i] == y[j]){
       	    break;
	 }else{
            //Check if reach the last element in the array 2
            //If yes, then display that element in array 1 b/c not in array 2
            if (y[j] == y.length-1){
	       str += x[i];
            }
         }
      }
   }
   document.getElementById(id).innerHTML = str;

}


function init(){
   getValue("info");
}
</script>
</head>

<body onload="init()">
<h2 id="info"></h2>
</body>
</html>

Many Arrays Or 1 Array?

I have a choice when creating a new API that I would like other peoples opinions on. Do I use a single Array or Multiple arrays such as:

Code:

array[1][1] = "ID[56]NAME[Hello World]START[10]";

OR

Code:

ID[1][1] = 56;
Name[1][1] = "Hello World";
Start[1][1] = 20;

The API is used for animations so is very heavy work, but would using around 15 multidimensional arrays be too much and a single one be preferable???

Thanks

How To Add A Method To A Set Of Arrays?

I'm a newbie of JS and don't know if I have got the right terms in my question.
I want to lowercase all the arrays:

Code:

<script>
var txt = [
            ["Cats","Dogs","Rabbits"],
              ["Fish","Bones","Carrots"]
          ] 
 
document.write(txt[0][1] + " love eating " + txt[1][1]);
</script>

I know I can do something like this:

Code:

document.write(txt[0][1].toLowerCase() + " love eating " + txt[1][1].toLowerCase());

// or

var txt1 = txt[0][1] + " love eating " + txt[1][1];
document.write(txt1.toLowerCase());

But if I will loop through all the arrays and print them out, I am bothered with appending .toLowerCase(0 after each array one by one,
so is there any way to bind that method at one go?

I hope my question is understandable. Maybe I've used wrong terms of JS.
Thank you.
