Given several variables

var myVar0;
var myVar1;
var myVar2;
var myVar3;
var myVar4;

var randomNumber // generating random number between 0,4

As you see, all myVar variables are ended some number, also I have randomNumber (between 0 and 4).

What I need: if generating randomNumber equal 3, I want set myVar3 = true, if generating randomNumber equal 0, set myVar0 = true and so on…

That is how make some like this

var randomNumber = 3;
myVar{randomNumber} = true;
//result:  myVar3 is true

Answer 1

Don’t use separate variables; use an array.

var myVar = [];

var randomNumber = Math.floor(Math.random() * 5)
myVar[randomNumber] = true
