Full Stack JavaScript Techdegree Student 13,838 PointsAbility to store values from functions inside arrays, and then pulling them out one at a time later?
Dave McFarland This question is mostly for you, but anyone else that can answer I would be grateful. It has nothing to do with this video, other than I came up with the idea of using arrays, and it just so happens this video is on arrays.
I am writing some other side JavaScript codes to just have extra practice going along. One of the scripts I am writing was having to use the random number generator through a function()
or a for()
loop, and having it repeat a specified amount of times.
The idea is that each time the the code cycles through, the resulting random number will be added to a specific variable. So, having read on JavaScript over the years, the idea that I had was to have the function()
or the for()
loop put ALL of the random numbers generated into an array, that I can later access each part of the array and assign it to a specified variable.
Just real quick, is this something that is possible (if so, I'll figure the proper coding out)? Will we be doing something along these lines in some upcoming videos or later courses of the Full Stack JavaScript track?
As always, thanks.
