Answer 1

You can use Array#map (or jQuery.map()) to iterate one of the arrays, and get the value from the 2nd array using the index:

var $array_1 = [ "Meong", "Aumix" ];
var $array_2 = [ 3, 2 ];

var result = $array_1.map(function(item, index) {
  return [item, $array_2[index]];
});

console.log([result]);
