Turning Objects into Arrays and Back in JavaScript

  • Object.entries() converts objects into arrays of key-value pairs, leaving the original object unchanged.
  • Arrays allow for easy manipulation like mapping, filtering, and sorting, which objects lack.
  • Object.entries() only includes an object's own enumerable string keys, leaving out inherited or symbol-based ones.
  • Order matters in Object.entries(): numeric keys are sorted first, while others retain their order.
  • Object.entries() is useful for working with object data as a list, enabling transformations like mapping or filtering.
  • Object.fromEntries() reverses the process by creating an object from an iterable of key-value pairs.
  • Object.fromEntries() accepts any iterable, not just arrays, allowing for flexibility in data transformation.
  • If two entries use the same key, the last one takes precedence in the resulting object.
  • Object.fromEntries() is helpful for rebuilding objects after filtering out unwanted parts or updating values.
  • Overall, Object.entries() and Object.fromEntries() provide a streamlined way to manipulate and reshape object data in JavaScript.
