Question

It’s a silly question, but is this an array of objects in js?

var test = 
   { 
      Name: "John", 
      City: "Chicago",
      Married: false
   }

if so, how do I declare a new one.. I dont think

var test = new Object();  

or

var test = {}; 

is the same as my example above.

Answer 1

No.
That’s an object with three properties.

The object literal is just a shortcut for creating an empty object and assigning properties:

var test = { };   //or new Object()
test.name = "John";
test.city = "Chicago"
test.married = false;
