I got an array of objects which I need to make into three chunks in the sequence as they are in the original array. For eg.
let arr = [{1},{2}, {3}, {4}, {5}, {6}, {7}, {8}, {9}, {10}];
This array needs to be split like this:
let newArray = {a:[{1},{4},{7},{10},...}], b:[{2},{5},{8}], c:[{3},{6},{9}]};
reduce can distribute each value on its slot based on the index
As you need a,b,c rather than 0,1,2 , a small mapping is needed here mapNumLetter
let arr = ["{1}","{2}", "{3}", "{4}", "{5}", "{6}", "{7}", "{8}", "{9}", "{10}"];
// let newArray = {a:[{1},{4},{7},{10},...}], b:[{2},{5},{8}], c:[{3},{6},{9}]};
const mapNumLetter = {
0:"a",
1:"b",
2:"c"
}
const newArray = arr.reduce((acc,cur,i) => {
acc[mapNumLetter[i%3]].push(cur);
return acc
},{a:[],b:[],c:[]})
console.log(newArray)
( as {1} , {2} ... are not valid objects, i changed them to literals "{1}" , "{2}" ... )
{1} is not a valid js structure
assuming than arr is an array of object you can :
String.fromCharCode(current + 97)let arr = [{name:1},{name:2}, {name:3}, {name:4}, {name:5}, {name:6}, {name:7}, {name:8}, {name:9}, {name:10}];
function transform(theArray, chunkValue) {
let finalObject = {};
let current = 0;
let currentIndex;
theArray.forEach(element => {
currentIndex = String.fromCharCode(current + 97);
if (!finalObject[currentIndex]) {
finalObject[currentIndex] = [];
}
finalObject[currentIndex].push(element);
current++;
if (current === chunkValue) {
current = 0;
}
});
console.log(finalObject);
return finalObject;
}
transform(arr, 3);
Maybe this approach would be useful
const data = [{1:1}, {2:2}, {3:3}, {4:4}, {5:5}, {6:6}, {7:7}, {8:8}, {9:9}, {10:10}];
const chunk = (arr, n) => arr.length ? [arr.slice(0, n), ...chunk(arr.slice(n), n)] : [];
const chunks = chunk(data, 3);
const rotated = chunks[0].map((_, colIndex) => chunks.map(row => row[colIndex]));
const result = rotated.map((arr, index) =>
({ [index]: arr.filter(Boolean) }));
console.log(result);
