Objects

Object drills Lesson 6.2

• Most Frequent Word -- https://jsbin.com/lejeye/edit?js,console
• Data Merge -- https://jsbin.com/xoxoxu/edit?js,console
  • StackOverflow Nested Objects
• Recipe Factory -- https://jsbin.com/yiciso/edit?html,js,console,output

Questions

• Object Dot Notation vs Bracket Notations -- A little confused on how and when to use each. Example: Setting keys and retrieving values... This seems like a legit answer

  > var anObject = {};
  > anObject.name = "tom";
  'tom'
  > var tomAge = 15;
  > anObject[age] = tomAge;
  ReferenceError: age is not defined
  > anObject.age = tomAge;
  15
  > anObject.age;
  15
  > anObject[age];
  ReferenceError: age is not defined
