We’ll be closely working with objects and learning more about them in further parts of the tutorial. Here we’ve just scratched the surface of a topic that is really huge. Sometimes people say something like “Array type” or “Date type”, but formally they are not types of their own, but belong to a single “object” data type. They have their special features that we’ll study later. Error to store the information about an error. The various methods that can be used to loop through objects in JavaScript are: Using a for.in loop Object.keys method Object.values method Object.Date to store the information about the date and time,.Array to store ordered data collections,.There are many other kinds of objects in JavaScript: What we’ve studied in this chapter is called a “plain object”, or just Object. To iterate over an object: for (let key in obj) loop.To check if a property with the given key exists: "key" in obj.Square brackets allow taking the key from a variable, like obj. Property keys must be strings or symbols (usually strings).

They store properties (key-value pairs), where:

Use Object.entries to iterate over the keys and values of any object.Objects are associative arrays with several special features.

Be aware that any objects your function receives as parameters might have additional keys.

Use let k: keyof T and a for-in loop to iterate objects when you know exactly what the keys will be.

The latter is more generally appropriate, though the key and value types are more difficult to work with. The former is appropriate for constants or other situations where you know that the object won't have additional keys and you want precise types. If you want to iterate over the keys and values in an object, use either a keyof declaration ( let k: keyof T) or Object.entries. Hopefully this doesn't happen in a nonadversarial environment (you should never add enumerable properties to Object.prototype), but it is another reason that for-in produces string keys even for object literals. This code runs fine, and yet TypeScript flags an error in it. Returns the list for chaining.each(1, 2, 3, alert) > alerts each number.

Reading through this item again, I'd add that this is all a good reason to consider using an ES6 Map instead of an object to store key/value pairs! If list is a JavaScript object, iteratees arguments will be (value, key, list). The difficulty results from a combination of the quirks of JavaScript objects and duck typing. Iterating over the keys and values in an object is a common operation that's surprisingly hard to write without type assertions in TypeScript.
