Reference variable name in a loop

[fogmajor]

Good evening

I have a function looking at a string of 6 characters, my function uses a loop to look at each character in turn and if the value matches a temp value a event occurs.

I have at the beginning of the function

var temp1 = some value
var temp2 = some value

etc

if my logic is true then I want to do the following where x is the array position (1-6)

temp + x = context.get('T1'); this fails

if its static

temp1 = context.get('T1'); it works

Many thanks
Andrew

@fogmajor

temp + x = context.get('T1');

What is temp?

It would probably be best to show us your function as it isn't at all clear what you are trying to do. Copy/paste the code here and use the </> button at the top of the forum entry window to paste it in.

@fogmajor

temp + x = context.get('T1'); this fails

Not sure what you are trying to achieve there? That isn't valid JavaScript.

You could set an array entry for each temp.
temp[x] = context.get('T1');
assuming x is a number that increments.
Best to declare temp earlier in your code.
let temp = [];
access temp[0] etc

Hi
Many thanks for that it is just what I was looking for, so glad you understood my convoluted question.
