I am trying to loop through array of Objects and calculate the average of a nested Object containing several different keys. This is the start array:
[{
course: "math",
id: 4,
values: {
2017: 8,
2018: 9
}
}, {
course: "math",
id: 4,
values: {
2017: 5,
2019: 7
}
}]
This is my goal:
{2017:6.5,2018:9,2019:7}
Now it returns correct for 2017 but NaN for 2018 and 2019. If anyone have better way of solving this that doesn't require so much please provide to.
This is what I have tried so far. I have been searching a lot but not really found anything I can use.
const testObject = [{
id: 4,
course: "math",
values: {
2017: 8,
2018: 9
}
},
{
id: 5,
course: "English",
values: {
2017: 8,
2018: 9
}
},
{
id: 4,
course: "math",
values: {
2017: 5,
2019: 7
}
},
{
id: 4,
course: "english",
values: {
2017: 5,
2019: 7
}
},
]
//First I filter out the id 4 and course Math
const mathid1 = testObject.filter((e) => e.id === 4 && e.course === "math");
//I than find all the different years
const ArrayOfAllYears = []
mathid1.map((element) => {
ArrayOfAllYears.push(Object.keys(element.values));
})
//I here find all the different years
const withDuplicates = ArrayOfAllYears.reduce(function(arrayOne, arrayTwo) {
return arrayOne.concat(arrayTwo);
}, []);
const withoutDuplicates = Array.from(new Set(withDuplicates));
//Here I just create the calculate average function
const Result = {}
const calculateAverage = (array) => {
const sum = array.reduce((a, b) => a + b);
return sum / array.length;
};
const newObj = {}
withoutDuplicates.map((year) => {
let reformattedArray = mathid1.map(obj => {
if (obj["values"][year]) {
return obj["values"][year]
}
})
newObj[year] = calculateAverage(reformattedArray)
})
console.log(newObj)
// I want to calculate the average of the mathid1 values and return it on a Object like {2017:..,2018..}
