Get Value of attribute from an array into another array-CodePudding

I have a array as follows:

data = [
 {
  "tag":"A"
 },
 {
  "tag":"B"
 },
 {
  "tag":"C"
 }
];

I want these tags' values in another array. I know I can do it using forEach loop but want to do it in some other efficient way. Any way to do it?

CodePudding user response：

It's best to use a .map() call for this instead of .forEach(). See the MDN article for .map()

data = [
 {
  "tag":"A"
 },
 {
  "tag":"B"
 },
 {
  "tag":"C"
 }
];

const tags = data.map(el => el.tag);
console.log(tags)

Rather than having to create a temporary array, the .map() function transforms each value in an existing array into a new array. In this case, you just take the .tag property of every old element to make the new element.
