## Objects Around
> Mindful AI mode
### Context
Think about all the objects around you: like your book or robot friend. Each of these objects has different properties that describe it. For example, a robot can have a type, weight, and operational status. In JavaScript, we use objects to group these related properties together, making it easy to manage and access this information.

### Concepts
### JavaScript Objects
Objects in JavaScript are fundamental data structures used to group related values together. They are like a bag of values.
### Example
First, let's look at different types of variables:
```js
let type = "Talkative";
let weight = 120.5;
let isOperational = true;
```
Now, we can group them into an object. Objects are values too, so let's assign one to a robot variable:
```js
let robot = {
type: "Talkative",
weight: 120.5,
isOperational: true,
};
console.log(robot); // This will display the object 'robot'
```
Here, the robot variable is declared, and its value type is an object.
### Object Literal Syntax:
Objects are defined using curly brackets {}.
```js
let emptyRobot = {}; // an empty object
```
### Properties
Objects consist of properties, each having a key and a value:
```js
let robot = {
type: "Talkative", // 'type' is the key, 'Talkative' is the value
weight: 120.5,
isOperational: true,
};
```
Each property is separated by a comma ",". It's good practice to add a trailing comma to every property, though it's not required for the last one.
### Accessing Values
To access values in an object, use the dot notation. For example:
```js
let robot = {
type: "Talkative",
weight: 120.5,
isOperational: true,
};
console.log(robot); // Logs the whole 'robot' object
console.log(robot.weight); // Logs the weight of the robot (120.5)
```
You can use the property values just like any other values:
```js
let efficiency = 1.15; // Efficiency factor
let robot = {
type: "Talkative",
weight: 120.5,
isOperational: true,
};
const adjustedWeight = robot.weight * efficiency;
console.log(adjustedWeight); // Logs the adjusted weight
```
#### **`Prompt Example`**:
- Can you help me visualize a JavaScript object with the following properties: `name`, `age`, `hasEnergy``?
### Instructions
#### Task 1:
Let's declare a variable `myRobot` which has an object as its value with 3 properties.
1. A `name` property of `myRobot`'s name as a String
2. An `age` property of `myRobot`'s age as a Number
3. A `hasEnergy` property as a Boolean indicating if `myRobot` has dangerous features
#### Task 2:
We will provide a `robot` variable of type object just like the one you did in the previous task.
Your job will be to decompose each property into its own variable:
- Define a `name` variable with the value of the `name` property of the `robot` variable.
- Same for `age`.
- And same for `hasEnergy`.
