Merge Arrays of Objects in TypeScript (concat, spread, by id)

Merge arrays of objects in TypeScript: Command Prompt output of two order arrays combined with concat and spread

To merge two arrays in TypeScript, use concat() or spread syntax: a.concat(b) and […a, …b] both return a new array and leave the originals alone. That is all you need when the rows are independent. When both arrays hold objects that describe the same records, you usually want one row per id instead of two, … Read more >>

Filter an Array of Objects by Multiple Properties in TypeScript

Filter an array of objects by multiple properties in TypeScript: Command Prompt output of AND, OR and mixed conditions on orders

To filter an array of objects by multiple properties in TypeScript, combine the tests inside one predicate: orders.filter(o => o.status === “shipped” && o.city === “Austin”) for “all of these”, and || for “any of these”. That covers two fixed conditions. Real screens need more: several selected values for the same field, ranges, a search … Read more >>

How to Get the Index in a forEach Loop in TypeScript

Get the index in a forEach loop in TypeScript: Command Prompt output showing the index next to each city and 1-based numbering

To get the index in a forEach loop in TypeScript, take the second parameter of the callback: items.forEach((item, index) => …).

How to Repeat Code, Functions and Values in Python

Repeat in Python: Command Prompt output of a for loop repeating a line three times and a string and list repeated with the star operator

Python has no built-in repeat() function, and what you need depends on what you are repeating. To repeat code a fixed number of times, use for _ in range(n). To repeat it until something happens, use while True with a break, because Python has no repeat-until loop. To repeat a value, multiply it: “ab” * … Read more >>

Python / vs //: True Division and Floor Division

Python division operators: Command Prompt output comparing 7 / 2, 7 // 2 and 7 % 2 and the types they return

Python has two division operators. / is true division and always returns a float, so 7 / 2 is 3.5 and even 8 / 4 is 2.0. // is floor division: it divides and then rounds down, so 7 // 2 is 3. The difference that catches people out is negative numbers, where -7 // … Read more >>

That is where clear React component naming conventions make a real … Read more >>

Higher Order Components in React: A Practical Guide

A third needs activity tracking or role-based access. You could repeat that logic inside every React component. That works at first, but it quickly creates bulky files and inconsistent … Read more >>

Build a React Modal Component Example
