I have an Array viewObject.terms
this array can contain up to 3 items. I need to iterate through the array and save the values into a data object.
ie:
data.term_id_1 = viewObject.terms[0].term_id
data.ticker_1 = viewObject.terms[0].its_ticker
This is what I first tried, but I get the error can't set '0' of undefined:
for (var i=0; i<viewObject.terms.length; i++) {
data.term_id_[i+1] = viewObject.terms[i].term_id;
data.ticker_[i+1] = viewObject.terms[i].its_ticker;
}
So for the moment I'm just using a switch case to handle this currently (albeit in a super ugly way):
if (viewObject.terms.length > 0) {
switch(viewObject.terms.length) {
case 1:
data.term_id_1 = viewObject.terms[0].term_id;
data.ticker_1 = viewObject.terms[0].its_ticker;
break;
case 2:
data.term_id_1 = viewObject.terms[0].term_id;
data.ticker_1 = viewObject.terms[0].its_ticker;
data.term_id_2 = viewObject.terms[1].term_id;
data.ticker_2 = viewObject.terms[1].its_ticker;
break;
case 3:
data.term_id_1 = viewObject.terms[0].term_id;
data.ticker_1 = viewObject.terms[0].its_ticker;
data.term_id_2 = viewObject.terms[1].term_id;
data.ticker_2 = viewObject.terms[1].its_ticker;
data.term_id_3 = viewObject.terms[2].term_id;
data.ticker_3 = viewObject.terms[2].its_ticker;
break;
}
}
