Variable function parameter
I'm trying to figure out how to pass a parameter in a for loop, like so:
for (let i = 0; i < mainhaul[0].length; i++) {
createSingle(
co2cols,
'Distance',
distanceFix(mainhaul[0][i].emissions.distances.{type}._)
);
}
This loop sits in a function, which gets type as a parameter, that I'm trying to use to alter the distanceFix parameter, but I can't figure out to do it, or if I even can do what I'm trying to. A little worried I've fallen into an xy trap.
Basically, the question is, is there syntax to allow me to insert a variable into distanceFix to replace {type}?
I'm not even sure if I'm making sense at this point, feeling a little in over my head :p4 Replies
distances[type] should work
if I'm understanding what you're asking correctlyYep, that seems to have done the trick, thanks! :) I tried distances.[type], assuming I needed the dot, but apparently not.
nope, the square brackets work as property accessors on their own 🙂
yeah, that makes sense :)
