Question

I have a large list of objects inside JSON like this:

  var data = {
    4eae1aa12efa83745d00000b: {
        location: "office",
        latLong: [
            40.7069546, -74.0094471
        ],
    },
    4eae1aa12efa83745d000000: {
        location: "home",
        latLong: [
            42.3584308, -71.0597732
        ]
    }
  };

Where the 4eae1aa12efa83745d00000b style key is random. How do I iterate through the JSON to print the location and latLong array of each nested JSON object?

I tried:

$.each(data, function() {
      $.each(this, function() {

        console.log(this.location);

      });
});

but that doesn’t return anything

You should look up the $.map function to translate the items in your object/array – Go for something like this:

$.map(data, function(val, i){

    console.log(val.location);
    console.log(val.latLong[1]);
    console.log(val.latLong[2]);

})

I believe that’s what you’re after anyway.
