VistasHow to swap key-value and only return the first pair in javascript?
- Here is the task
- @param {object} ???
- @returns {object} an object with the given object's values as keys, and keys as values. If there are duplicate values in the input object, only the first key-value pair should be used and subsequent pairs with the same value discarded.
2.Here is what i did code
What's wrong with it? How should i rework?
const object5 = { a: 1, b: 2, c: 3, d: 1 };
const object6 = { a: 1, b: 1, c: 1, d: 1 };
function swapPairs2(obj){
let newObject = {};
for(const key in obj){
let value = obj[key]
newObject[value] = key;
}
return newObject;
}
3.Here are the tests
test(swapPairs2(object5), { 1: "a", 2: "b", 3: "c" });
test(swapPairs2(object6), { 1: "a" });
4.Here is the error i got
I am supposed to get the first key-value pair, but a random return.

You can also reverse the entries.
const object5 = { a: 1, b: 2, c: 3, d: 1 };
const object6 = { a: 1, b: 1, c: 1, d: 1 };
const swapPairs2 = obj => Object.fromEntries(
Object.entries(obj)
.reverse() // Keep the first, not the last
.map(entry => [entry[1], entry[0]]) // Reverse the key and vlaue
);
console.log(swapPairs2(object5));
console.log(swapPairs2(object6));

You can do it by taking the object keys and using the Array.reduce() method on the keys.
const object5 = { a: 1, b: 2, c: 3, d: 1 };
const object6 = { a: 1, b: 1, c: 1, d: 1 };
const swapPairs2 = (obj) => Object.keys(obj)
.reduce((a, c) => (a[obj[c]] = a[obj[c]] ?? c, a), {});
console.log(swapPairs2(object5));
console.log(swapPairs2(object6));Or using the Array.reduce() method on the Object.entries()
const object5 = { a: 1, b: 2, c: 3, d: 1 };
const object6 = { a: 1, b: 1, c: 1, d: 1 };
const swapPairs2 = obj => Object.entries(obj)
.reduce((acc, [key, val]) => (acc[val] = acc[val] ?? key, acc), {})
console.log(swapPairs2(object5));
console.log(swapPairs2(object6));

Only add the value/key pairs, if the value doesn't already exist on newObject by checking with the in operator:
function swapPairs2(obj) {
const newObject = {};
for (const key in obj) {
const value = obj[key];
if(!(value in newObject)) {
newObject[value] = key;
}
}
return newObject;
}
const object5 = { a: 1, b: 2, c: 3, d: 1 };
const object6 = { a: 1, b: 1, c: 1, d: 1 };
console.log(swapPairs2(object5));
console.log(swapPairs2(object6));Another option is to use Array.reduce():
const swapPairs2 = obj =>
Object.entries(obj)
.reduce((acc, [k, v]) =>
v in acc
? acc
: { ...acc, [v]: k }
, {})
const object5 = { a: 1, b: 2, c: 3, d: 1 };
const object6 = { a: 1, b: 1, c: 1, d: 1 };
console.log(swapPairs2(object5));
console.log(swapPairs2(object6));
