ECMAScript 6 introduces the easily polyfillable Object.assign:

The Object.assign() method is used to copy the values of all enumerable own properties from one or more source objects to a target object. It will return the target object.

Object.assign({}, ['a','b','c']); // {0:"a", 1:"b", 2:"c"}

The own length property of the array is not copied because it isn't enumerable.

Also, you can use ES8 spread syntax on objects to achieve the same result:

{ ...['a', 'b', 'c'] }

For custom keys you can use reduce:

['a', 'b', 'c'].reduce((a, v) => ({ ...a, [v]: v}), {}) 
// { a: "a", b: "b", c: "c" }

Learning arrays and object arrays

you only have 1 object in your Array, and that object has 2 additional objects within it (ssm & notSSM).

Here is your current structure:

globalDiskSpaceParameters[0].ssm.Test.... value2

globalDiskSpaceParameters[0].ssm.Test1...... Value2

globalDiskSpaceParameters[0].notSSM.Testing..... value3

globalDiskSpaceParameters[0].notSSM.Testing1..... value4

If you changed it to:

var globalDiskSpaceParameters = [{Test: "value2", Test1: "Value2"}, {Testing: "value3", Testing1: "value4"}];

you would have 2 objects in your array, but they would both have different properties...

globalDiskSpaceParameters[0].Test.... value2

globalDiskSpaceParameters[0].Test1...... Value2

globalDiskSpaceParameters[1].Testing..... value3

globalDiskSpaceParameters[1].Testing1..... value4

Converting Object to an Array in JavaScript | by Samantha Ming | DailyJS | Medium
November 4, 2019 - Okay, I’m exaggerating a bit 😅. But I remember whenever I needed to convert an object into an array, I had to do something like this. var numbers = { one: 1, two: 2 };var keys = [];for (var number in numbers) { if(numbers.hasOwnProperty(number)){ keys.push(number) } }keys; // [ 'one', 'two' ] I always was so angry and wished there was a better way… · And then ES6 happened! My life changed! We finally have an easier way 🥳 ... JavaScript news and opinion.

r/learnjavascript on Reddit: How to transform an array of numbers into objects?
February 3, 2023 -

Solved: so the problem was I did not understand what everyone was saying by returning my array/result. I knew I was close, kind of, but was missing the final pieces of the puzzle until I saw the working code, then it made sense.

This is the solution I went with and it passed the check:

function transformToObjects(numberArray) {

return numberArray.map((num) => { let obj = { val: num }; console.log(obj); return obj; }); }

I'm still unsure why the console.log(obj) does not log this, but I presume it was used for testing and has something to do with the return keyword that makes it not display the obj variable.

____________________________________________________

Hi, I am stuck on an exercise from a course on Udemy and I'm not sure how to solve it.

I need to put through [1,2,3] in my argument and return [ Object({ val: 1 }), Object({ val: 2 }) ]

Below is my attempt at it:

function transformToObjects(numberArray) {
  // Todo: Add your logic
  // should return an array of objects

  //console.log(numberArray);
  numberArray.map((num) => {
    let numObj = { val: num };
    return numObj;
  });
}
transformToObjects([1, 2, 3]);

Note: I must use map() for this exercise. Any thoughts/help on this?
