Is it possible to initialize multiple Javascript arrays in a loop?

Question

Let's say i have a for loop and i want to initialize multiple arrays in that loop. Can it be achieved like this?:

for (var i = 0; i < 5; i++){
  var array+i = [];
}

So that the arrays that will be created are array0,array1,array2,array3,array4?

Any help would be much appreciated :)

Answer 1

You can use a multi dimensional array to tackle this problem:

for(var i=0;i<5;i++){
  var array[i]=[];
}

which will result in:

array[0] = []
array[1] = []
array[2] = []
array[3] = []
array[4] = []

hope that helps :)

You can achieve something like that using

• JavaScript Two Dimensional Arrays
• Building a MultiDimensional Array in Javascript
• JavaScript Multi-Dimensional Arrays
