When we started creating our player objects, we specifically gave them id
properties that were different from each other in order to identify them. To me, it makes sense to use those id's to find the value instead of pass another prop.
Also, I used React Hooks for functional code instead of ES6 classes.
import React, { useState } from "react";
import Header from "./Header";
import Player from "./Player";
function App() {
const playerArr = [
{ name: "Guil", id: 1, score: 0 },
{ name: "Treasure", id: 2, score: 0 },
{ name: "Ashley", id: 3, score: 0 },
{ name: "James", id: 4, score: 0 },
];
const [players, setPlayers] = useState(playerArr);
const handleScoreChange = (id, addend) => {
setPlayers((players) => {
const clone = [...players];
clone.find((player) => player.id === id).score += addend;
return clone;
});
};
const handleRemovePlayer = (id) =>
setPlayers((players) => players.filter((playerObj) => playerObj.id !== id));
return (
<div className="scoreboard">
<Header title="Scoreboard" totalPlayers={players.length} />
{/* Players List */}
{players.map((player) => (
<Player
{...player}
key={player.id.toString()}
removePlayer={handleRemovePlayer}
changeScore={handleScoreChange}
/>
))}
</div>
);
}
export default App;

5,330 PointsYeah I did wonder why we weren't just using the player IDs.....
I don't know anything about React Loops though, I assume that's coming later in the course.
