How would you get the number 123 out of this object using one line of JavaScript?.
var myCrazyObject = {
"name": "A ridiculous object", "some array": [7, 9, { purpose: "confusion", number: 123 }, 3.3], "random animal": "Banana Shark" };

As crazy as that object is, it's actually very straightforward to pull that number out. You just delve into the object itself and use brackets and quoted references to names when they are named keys with spaces (if they don't have spaces you can use dot notation) and numbers for indices when it is an array. So, here's two versions of your one line =]
myCrazyObject["some array"][2]["number"];
OR:
myCrazyObject["some array"][2].number;
