[removed] convert two dimensional array to array of objects using the first 'row' to define properties

Question

In order to populate a data-grid that receives array of row objects, I am looking for a good solution to convert an array such as this:

[  
[\'country\', \'p         


        

Answer 1

var array = [  
    ['country', 'population'],
    ['someplace', 100],
    ['otherplace', 200]
];

var keys = array.shift();
var objects = array.map(function(values) {
    return keys.reduce(function(o, k, i) {
        o[k] = values[i];
        return o;
    }, {});
});
