I actually don't know what this is called, hence the "extra matching" in the title
I have 2 arrays of objects
[{player_1: 'adeshina'}, {player_1: 'MindReaper'}]
and
[{player_2: 'thinkerbull'}, {player_2: 'AfroGamer'}]
How can I merge it to become {player_1: 'adeshina', player_2: 'thinkerbull'}, {player_1: 'MindReaper', player_2: 'AfroGamer'} ?
You can use map() to loop through the arrays and merge the objects,
like this:
const arrayOne = [{player_1: 'adeshina'}, {player_1: 'MindReaper'}]
const arrayTwo = [{player_2: 'thinkerbull'}, {player_2: 'AfroGamer'}]
const newArray = arrayOne.map( (e, index) => ({...e, ...arrayTwo[index]}));
It's actually called "zipping". You wanna zip two arrays.
It can be done using map:
var a = [{player_1: 'adeshina'}, {player_1: 'MindReaper'}]
var b = [{player_2: 'thinkerbull'}, {player_2: 'AfroGamer'}]
var c = a.map(function(e, i) {
return [e, b[i]];
});
console.log(c)
A shorter version would be:
c = a.map((e, i) =>[e, b[i]]);
