JavaScript: Create an object with the same keys as the provided object and values generated by running the provided function for each value

JavaScript fundamental (ES6 Syntax): Exercise-84 with Solution

Write a JavaScript program to create an object with the same keys as the provided object. It will also generate values generated by running the provided function for each value.

Maps the values of an object using the provided function, generating a new object with the same keys.

  • Use Object.keys() to iterate over the object's keys.
  • Use Array.prototype.reduce() to create a new object with the same keys and mapped values using fn.

Sample Solution:

JavaScript Code:

//#Source https://bit.ly/2neWfJ2 
const mapValues = (obj, fn) =>
  Object.keys(obj).reduce((acc, k) => {
    acc[k] = fn(obj[k], k, obj);
    return acc;
  }, {});
const users = {
  fred: { user: 'fred', age: 40 },
  pebbles: { user: 'pebbles', age: 1 }
};
console.log(mapValues(users, u => u.age));

Sample Output:

{"fred":40,"pebbles":1}
