If I would like to match the word that I need to find it the same as <lookup> in Excel. I intend to create a form for Example. I have a file certain big data and I will create a box for fill in data that you need then Enter it show the Description of data. Now I got stuck I don't know how to write to the script I have learned in youtube but don't have a solution that nearby with my need it nearby just <Indexof> function.
var data = Activesheet.getRange(1,1,Activesheet.getLastRow()-1,1).getValues();
Logger.log(data.indexOf("TPBSA"));
data is a 2D(two dimensional) array. indexOf only works with a 1D array. flatten the array before indexOf:
const data = [["A1"],["A2"],["TPBSA"],["A4"]];
console.info(data.flat().indexOf("TPBSA"));
//or
console.info(data.findIndex(e=>e[0]==='TPBSA'))

I'm making a scheduling app, and storing all the scheduled things in firebase with arrays. When I try to schedule something with the same string value, it fails and doesn't add it to the array. I don't know if this is something in swift I can edit, or if it's a firebase setting.
If it's something in swift, here's the code updating the array:
doc.updateData([
"Instructor": FieldValue.arrayUnion(["\(scheduleinstructor)"])
])
If it's something in firebase, could someone please explain a way around this or a simple fix I overlooked?
According to the documentation on adding items to an array:
arrayUnion() adds elements to an array but only elements not already present
So the fact that the duplicate entry is not added is by design. If you want to allow that, you'll have to:
Read the document with the array from the databae.
Extract the array from the document into your application code.
Add the item to the array.
Write the entire modified array back to the database.
I'm trying to convert an Object array into an array without use "let item of array" on html, I already google a lot but nothing that I find works.
Why I don't use loops? because I pretend to display data inside a page that comes from a liteSQL database, so all the data that I extract from that it's an Object and sure I can display the data without issues if I use a loop like "let item of array" but in this case I just want to show information on the HTML like item.name or item.avatar
Thanks in advance for any help, If you guys need more information please let me know.
The database have students so every array have: name, age, avatar, etc, so I try to show some like a profile after they tap the name on the list
EDIT:
What you are receiving from your server is an array of objects.
array of objects ->
[{
key1:vlaue1,
key2:value2
},
{
key1:vlaue1,
key2:value2
}]
You refer the values here by using array[0]['key1'] array[0]['key2'] and so on
In your case, you are receiving only one object in the array, so simply use array[0].name array[0].age and so on
Thanks for the help, I actually found the solution by my self, I just need to use:
item: array = <array>{};
in order to use my object array as a simple array items without any loop on html
I am learning the basics of Google Scripting after using VBA in Excel for many years, so please forgive the basic question.
I want to take a range of cells in my sheet using getValues() and then create a multi-element array.
Here is a simple example from my code:
var gameInfo = [];
gameInfo = gameMasterSheet.getRange(3, 3, 1, 9).getValues();
As you can see, the defined range is 9 cells in a single row.
My goal is to create an array from these 9 cells, and have each cell be accessible via a separate array element. However, it seems all 9 cell values are being inserted into gameInfo[0], and when I reference gameInfo[2] hoping to obtain the value of the third cell in the range, "undefined" is returned.
Is there a way to use getValues() to populate an array with separate elements? If so, how is this done? If not, what is a better alternative?
Thanks for any help you all can provide!
getValues returns a 2d array, even when it's a single row of cells. Think of it like this: gameInfo[row - 1][column - 1], so the top left is gameInfo[0][0].
All of your data is in gameInfo is in one row (gameInfo[0]), so the third element will be accessed as gameInfo[0][2] (row 1, column 3).
gameInfo[2] would be the third row, which is indeed outside of the range and undefined.
Also: to get just the values into an array from a 2d array, you could do this:
const values = [];
gameInfo.forEach(row => {
row.forEach(column => {
values.push(column);
})
})
See the script at the bottom of the Simple Mail Merge Tutorial for some useful code to retrieve data. Copy all the code from this comment down:
//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
//
// The code below is reused from the 'Reading Spreadsheet data using JavaScript Objects'
// tutorial.
//
/////////
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// getRowsData iterates row by row in the input range and returns an array of objects.
Once you have, use getRowsData to retrieve the data as an array of objects. If I understand you correctly, this will get you want you are after.

The question was difficult to put into words, but here is my situation. I have several Monster objects in an array called monsters. Each monster has a name property which is a String.
I have a second array called monsterNames, which contains several monster names (as Strings).
I want to be able to filter all the monster objects in monsters array based on whether the individual monster object's name property appears in the monsterNames array.
I have been looking at solutions so far I have only found solutions that filter based on a single condition, which allows me to only filter based on a single monster name in the monsterNames array. Can anybody help me find an efficient solution to this?
You could do something like:
let monsters: [Monster] = ...
let monsterNames: [String] = ...
let filteredMonsters = monsters.filter { monsterNames.contains($0.name) }
This doesn't perform all that well, since it will go over the names array up to n times for each monster, but if your names arrays is small, this won't be a problem.
I have created an array that contains another array into it, but now I am struggling to get the data from it. Please see the image attached.
Imagine I would like to access the string in channelsData(1)(1,1)(0,0) so the first red crossed string. How can I call it in an If condition condition for example?
Thanks in advance.
To get the data is as #Rory suggested. channelsData(1,1)(0,0)
To get the dimension of the array at channelsData(1,1)(i) is UBound(channelsData(i, 1), 2)
