Tell us what’s happening:
I am getting weird results. Using “Harry” as the firstName parameter it finds that name in the array but then returns the information for contacts[o]
Is it not iterating through the array properly or is it something else?
Your code so far
//Setup
var contacts = [
{
"firstName": "Akira",
"lastName": "Laine",
"number": "0543236543",
"likes": ["Pizza", "Coding", "Brownie Points"]
},
{
"firstName": "Harry",
"lastName": "Potter",
"number": "0994372684",
"likes": ["Hogwarts", "Magic", "Hagrid"]
},
{
"firstName": "Sherlock",
"lastName": "Holmes",
"number": "0487345643",
"likes": ["Intriguing Cases", "Violin"]
},
{
"firstName": "Kristian",
"lastName": "Vos",
"number": "unknown",
"likes": ["Javascript", "Gaming", "Foxes"]
}
];
function lookUpProfile(firstName, prop){
// Only change code below this line
for (var i = 0; i < contacts.length; i += 1) {
if (contacts[i][firstName] === contacts[firstName]) {
return contacts[i];
}
} return "No such contact";
// Only change code above this line
}
// Change these values to test your function
lookUpProfile("Harry", "likes");
