### Context
Sometimes we don't need a key, we just want a list of things, JS has a special type for that, called an array.
In JavaScript, arrays are essential tools for handling these lists efficiently.
Let's discover them together!
### AI-Powered Learning Techniques
`Example-Based Learning Technique:`
This type of prompt encourages the AI to provide concrete examples to illustrate concepts, making it easier to understand and apply them.
Find the examples across the subject ;)
### Concepts
### Understanding Arrays
Arrays are special types of objects in JavaScript used to store lists of items. Unlike objects, arrays don't have keys for each element, just a list of values.
**Example of an Array**
Let's see an example of an array:
```js
let batteryLevels = [
80, // <- no keys!
60,
90,
50,
];
// or for brevity, we often write them on a single line like so:
let batteryLevels = [80, 60, 90, 50];
```
### Indexes in Arrays
The position of an element in an array is called its index, starting from 0. So, our batteryLevels array is roughly equivalent to writing this object:
```js
let batteryLevelsObject = {
0: 80,
1: 60,
2: 90,
3: 50,
};
```
### Accessing Array Values
To access a value in an array, use the index inside square brackets:
```js
let batteryLevels = [80, 60, 90, 50];
console.log(batteryLevels[0]); // -> 80
console.log(batteryLevels[3]); // -> 50
console.log(batteryLevels[6]); // -> undefined
```
### Using the .length Property
Arrays keep track of how many elements they contain using the `.length` property:
```js
console.log([].length); // -> 0
console.log([80].length); // -> 1
console.log([80, 60, 90, 50].length); // -> 4
```
### Replacing an Array Value
You can replace an array value by accessing it via its index and assigning a new value:
```js
let robotTasks = [
"Charging",
"Cleaning",
"Maintenance",
"Patrolling",
"Greeting",
];
// Let's say I want to change 'Charging' to 'Upgrading'
robotTasks[0] = "Upgrading";
console.log(robotTasks);
```
Now, the array looks like this:
```js
["Upgrading", "Cleaning", "Maintenance", "Patrolling", "Greeting"];
```
#### **`Prompt Example`**:
- "How does accessing an array element differ from accessing an object property?"
- "Can you think of a scenario where using an array to store values would be more beneficial than using separate variables?"
### Instructions
#### Task 1:
You must declare a variable `components` that contains 4 strings, one for each robot component.
#### Task 2:
We provide you a variable `robotParts` that contains some elements. You will have to access them and assign their values to variables:
- A variable `firstPart` for the first element of the robotParts list
- A variable `lastPart` for the last element of the robotParts list
- A variable `comboParts` as an array of 2 elements, the last and the first element of the robotParts list, in that order.
Example: if robotParts is `[1, 2, 3]`
-`firstPart` would be `1`
-`lastPart` would be `3`
-`comboParts` would be `[3, 1]`
#### Task 3:
You must replace the third element of the provided `replaceComponents` array with the string 'enhanced'.
Example:
```js
let replaceComponents = ["motor", "sensor", "battery"];
// expect -> ['motor', 'sensor', 'enhanced']
```
You must swap the first and second element of the provided `swapComponents` array.
Example:
```js
let swapComponents = ["motor", "sensor", "battery"];
// expect -> ['sensor', 'motor', 'battery'] (last element is untouched)
```
> "Programming is like building a robot. You start with the basics, but the fun really begins when you start swapping parts and adding enhancements!"
