Access non-numeric Object properties by index?

Question

If I have an array like this:

var arr = [\'one\',\'two\',\'three\'];

I can access different parts by doing this:

console.lo

You can use the Object.values() method if you dont want to use the Object.keys().

As opposed to the Object.keys() method that returns an array of a given object's own enumerable properties, so for instance:

const object1 = {
 a: 'somestring',
 b: 42,
 c: false
};

console.log(Object.keys(object1));

Would print out the following array:

[ 'a', 'b', 'c' ]

The Object.values() method returns an array of a given object's own enumerable property values.

So if you have the same object but use values instead,

const object1 = {
 a: 'somestring',
 b: 42,
 c: false
};

console.log(Object.values(object1));

You would get the following array:

[ 'somestring', 42, false ]

So if you wanted to access the object1.b, but using an index instead you could use:

Object.values(object1)[1] === 42
