4,350 PointsI used for in loop inside for loop, it's working. Is that good practice and if not, why?
Here is the code
var students = [
{
Name: 'John',
Track: 'JavaScript',
Achievements: 3,
Points: 343,
},
{
Name: 'Mathew',
Track: 'Java',
Achievements: 6,
Points: 654,
},
{
Name: 'Jane',
Track: 'PHP',
Achievements: 11,
Points: 998,
},
{
Name: 'Adam',
Track: 'TypeScript',
Achievements: 34,
Points: 2718,
},
{
Name: 'Joshua',
Track: 'C++',
Achievements: 38,
Points: 3433,
},
];
function print(html){
var get_elem = document.getElementById('output');
get_elem.innerHTML = html;
}
var mainhtml = " ";
for(var i = 0; i < students.length; i += 1){
for(var props in students[i]){
if(props === "Name"){
mainhtml += '<h2>' + props + ": " + students[i][props] + "</h2><br> ";
}else {
mainhtml += '<p>' + props + ": " + students[i][props] + " </p><br> ";
}
}
}
print(mainhtml);

231,275 PointsThis is exactly the kind of situation where nested loops are a good choice. Each loop has a clear purpose: one interates through the array, the other iterates through the object properties.
Good job.

6,104 PointsA little late to the party, but I just completed this challenge without referencing anything and what you have here is pretty close to what I have. It's good to know another way, as referenced by the video, but I'm glad I'm not the only one who did this.
