It seemed natural to me to write 2 loops for this challenge. The first loop would run through the array that has the objects stored in it, and the 2nd loop would tun through each of the properties of every object. I also wrote the entire thing as a function, just in case. That way, if I'm thinking right, I wouldn't have to worry about the number of objects in the array AND the number of properties each object has.
Is this a reasonable approach?
// test_array is my array of objects
// test_list is the message string
// both of them are predefined, of course, i just didn't include the definitions here
function printStudents() {
for (let i = 0; i < test_array.length; i++) {
for (let key in test_array[i]) {
test_list += key + ": " + test_array[i][key] + "<br>";
}
}
document.getElementById("output").innerHTML = test_list;
};
