Convert an Array of 3 numbers to associated letters

Time:01-03

Im learning JS and have set myself the challenge to re-create a football league table, from an array of match results.

Everything is going really well and I'm almost complete, but I can't filter my 'FORM GUIDE' array to their corresponding Letters.

I have the points scored over the last 5 games ONLY outputted as an array (below);

[3, 1, 3, 0, 3]

But I'd like to output this as 3 = W, 1 = D, 0 = L.

So... W, D, W, L, W

Can someone please explain how I can do this?

Thank you

You can use map:

[3, 1, 3, 0, 3].map(e => { if (e == 3) return "W";  if (e == 1) return "D"; if (e == 0) return "L"; throw `Unexpected value: ${e}`; })

CodePudding user response:

let arr = [3, 1, 3, 0, 3];

let arrMap = arr.map((i) => {
  if (i == 3) return "W";
  if (i == 0) return "L";
  return "D"
})


console.log(arrMap)

CodePudding user response:

You can achieve this with Array.map and a nice switch statement. Try this way:

const arr = [3, 1, 3, 0, 3]

const matched = arr.map(result => {
  switch(result){
    case 0:
      return 'L'
    case 1:
      return 'D'
    case 3:
      return 'W'
    default:
      return 'X'
  }
})

console.log(matched)

CodePudding user response:

You can achieve this clean and simple using map and an object acting as Enum where the key will represent the points and the value will represent the result char.

const array = [3, 1, 3, 0, 3];
const cases = {0: 'L', 1: 'D', 3: 'W'};

const matches = array.map(e => cases[e]);

console.log(matches)

CodePudding user response:

Instead of using map, you could also use forEach. The main difference is that map will return a new array, whereas forEach doesn't return anything and can be used to change the original array. Here is how:

const logic = {
  3: 'W',
  1: 'D',
  0: 'L'
}

const data = [3, 1, 3, 0, 3];

data.forEach((value, key) => data[key] = logic[value]);

console.log(data);

CodePudding user response:

const arr = [3, 1, 3, 0, 3, 2, 4];
const data = arr.map(v => ['L','D','_','W'][v] || '_');

console.log( data );
