how to alert a property of an object inside another object that matches a user's input from a prompt

πŸ€– SheCodes Athena says:

Answered in 4.43 seconds

To alert a property of an object inside another object that matches a user's input from a prompt, you can follow these steps using JavaScript:

  1. Create an object that contains other objects as properties, where each object has properties you want to access later. For example:
javascript
Copy code
const users = { user1: { name: "Alice", age: 25 }, user2: { name: "Bob", age: 30 }, user3: { name: "Charlie", age: 20 } };
  1. Use prompt() method to show a message asking the user for input, and store the input in a variable. For example:
javascript
Copy code
const userInput = prompt("Enter a name:");
  1. Loop through the objects in the main object using a for...in loop. For each object, check if the input matches the name property. If it does, use alert() method to show the value of the age property. For example:
javascript
Copy code
for (let user in users) { if (users[user].name === userInput) { alert(`The age of ${userInput} is ${users[user].age}`) } }

This will loop through each object in the users object, and check if the name property matches the user input. If it does, it will use alert() method to show the value of age property for that object.

Note that this will only show one alert for the first match. If there are multiple matches, you may want to modify the code to show all the matching objects.

how to alert a property of an object inside another object that matches a user's input from a prompt

πŸ€– SheCodes Athena says:

Answered in 4.59 seconds

In JavaScript, you can use a combination of object property access and prompt dialog to retrieve the user's input, and then search for the matching property within an object using a for..in loop or Object.keys() method. Once a match is found, you can use the alert() method to display the property value as an alert message.

Here is an example implementation:

javascript
Copy code
// Define an example object with nested objects const myObj = { name: 'John', age: 30, contact: { email: 'john@example.com', phone: '123-456-7890' } }; // Prompt the user to input a property name const input = prompt('Please enter a property name:'); // Check for a matching property within the object for (const key in myObj) { if (myObj.hasOwnProperty(key)) { // If the property is an object, search within its sub-properties if (typeof myObj[key] === 'object') { for (const subKey in myObj[key]) { if (myObj[key].hasOwnProperty(subKey) && subKey === input) { alert(myObj[key][subKey]); break; // Exit loop after first match is found } } } // Otherwise, check if the property matches the input else if (key === input) { alert(myObj[key]); break; // Exit loop after first match is found } } }

This example prompts the user to input a property name, and then searches for a matching property within the myObj object. If a match is found, it alerts the corresponding property value as an alert message. Note that this implementation only searches one level deep for nested objects, but you can modify it to search deeper if needed.

Can I put prompt inside of a function?

πŸ€– SheCodes Athena says:

Answered in 1.94 seconds

Yes, you can certainly put a prompt inside of a function. When the function is called, the prompt will appear and wait for the user's input. Here's an example in JavaScript:

javascript
Copy code
function greetUser() { let name = prompt("What's your name?"); alert(`Hello, ${name}!`); } greetUser();

In this example, the greetUser() function uses the prompt() function to ask the user for their name, and then uses the alert() function to display a greeting using the user's name. When the function is called at the bottom of the code, the prompt will appear and allow the user to enter their name.

Make a prompt answer case sensitive

πŸ€– SheCodes Athena says:

Answered in 1.4 seconds
javascript
Copy code
let userInput = prompt("Enter a word:").toLowerCase();

To make the prompt answer case sensitive, convert it to lowercase or uppercase using .toLowerCase() or .toUpperCase() string methods so that the input is always in the same case format before comparing it to a value. The example above converts the input to lowercase, meaning the program will ignore any uppercase characters entered by the user.

Code a prompt only when button is clicked

πŸ€– SheCodes Athena says:

Answered in 2.46 seconds

You can achieve this using JavaScript.

First, you'll need to add an event listener to the button that listens for the click event. Then, when the button is clicked, you can display the prompt.

Here's an example implementation:

javascript
Copy code
// Get the button element const button = document.querySelector('button'); // Add an event listener to the button that listens for the click event button.addEventListener('click', function() { // Display the prompt when the button is clicked const userInput = prompt('Please enter some text:'); console.log(userInput); });

In this example, we're getting the button element using document.querySelector, and adding an event listener that listens for the click event. When the button is clicked, the function inside the event listener is executed, which displays a prompt asking the user to enter some text. The text entered by the user is then logged to the console using console.log.

You can try this example out for yourself by creating an HTML file with a button element, adding the JavaScript code to the file, and opening it in a web browser.

how do you make a function for a yes or no answer

πŸ€– SheCodes Athena says:

Answered in 7.94 seconds

Here is an example function that prompts the user with a yes or no question and returns a boolean value depending on their answer:

javascript
Copy code
// JavaScript function that prompts for a yes or no answer function askYesNoQuestion(question) { let answer = prompt(question + " (yes or no)"); if (answer.toLowerCase() === "yes") { return true; } else if (answer.toLowerCase() === "no") { return false; } else { // If the user enters an invalid response, prompt again alert("Please enter 'yes' or 'no'"); return askYesNoQuestion(question); } } // Example usage let answer = askYesNoQuestion("Do you like pizza?"); if (answer) { alert("Great, me too!"); } else { alert("Oh no, I love pizza!"); }

In this function, prompt() is used to ask the user a yes or no question, and the user's response is compared to the strings "yes" and "no" using toLowerCase(). If the user enters an invalid response, the function prompts again by calling itself recursively. Finally, the function returns a boolean value of true or false depending on the user's answer.

fahrenheit to celsius in Javascript

πŸ€– SheCodes Athena says:

Answered in 3.66 seconds

To convert Fahrenheit to Celsius in JavaScript, you can use the following formula:

javascript
Copy code
celsius = (fahrenheit - 32) * 5/9;

Here's an example code snippet that prompts the user for a temperature input in Fahrenheit and converts it to Celsius:

javascript
Copy code
let fahrenheit = prompt("Enter temperature in Fahrenheit: "); let celsius = (fahrenheit - 32) * 5/9; console.log(`The temperature in Celsius is ${celsius.toFixed(2)}`);

In this example, we first prompt the user to enter the temperature in Fahrenheit using the prompt() method. We then use the formula shown above to convert the Fahrenheit value to Celsius and store the result in the celsius variable. The toFixed() method is used to round the result to 2 decimal places before it is printed to the console using console.log().

In JavaScript, you can use a conditional (if...else) statement and a loop (for) statement to collect information from several prompts and use the responses to present one final alert.

For example:

js

how to stop page from changing if user cancels prompt

πŸ€– SheCodes Athena says:

Answered in 8.44 seconds

You can stop a page from changing if a user cancels a prompt using the preventDefault() method. This is usually done in JavaScript using an onbeforeunload event attached to the window object. For example:

javascript
Copy code
window.onbeforeunload = function() { return "You cancelled the prompt"; };

Additionally, if you need to use a prompt to capture a value before a page unloads, you can use the prompt() method, which returns null if the user cancels the prompt. For example:

javascript
Copy code
var value = prompt('Please enter a value before the page unloads'); if (value !== null) { // do something with the value }

In Javascript, you can make an input in a prompt statement case insensitive by using the toLowerCase() method. For example:

var name = prompt("What is your name?");

This code opens a dialog box with the question "What is your name?" and stores the response in a name variable. For more information, please refer to the MDN docs.
