## Half a million ### Using variables as keys One possible and very useful way to get something from an object is using a variable value. Sometimes you don't know in advance what the key will be. Using variables allows your code to be flexible, let's see how to do it ```js let greeting = 'hello' let say = { hello: 'my friend', hoy: 'mate' } // Here when we access it will use console.log(say[greeting]) // -> 'my friend' // It is exactly the same as doing console.log(say['hello']) // -> 'my friend' // But if we change the value of our variable: greeting = 'hoy' // The same code now returns another value console.log(say[greeting]) // -> 'mate' ``` We are using the `value` of the variable, not the `identifier` to access the property, so: ```js console.log(say[greeting]) // -> 'mate' console.log(say['greeting']) // -> undefined console.log(say.greeting) // -> undefined // greeting is the identifier, but we use it's value, here `'hoy'` ``` ### Instructions In this exercise, we will do a heist. Our intel already worked the plan out and we are able to provide you with 2 variables: - a `vault` object - a `secret` string Your goal is to steal the `secret` matching value from the `vault`. Declare a variable `loot` and assign it's value using the variable `secret` value as a key to access the matching value from the `vault`. You must then replace the value from the vault's secret by a message of your choice. **Example**: if `vault` is `{ '53CR37-k0D3': '1/2 MM $' }` and `secret` is `'53CR37-k0D3'`: - `loot` should be `1/2 MM $` - `vault` should be `{ '53CR37-k0D3': 'I stole your $$' }` > I sure hope you didn't do anything stupid, Jackie. \ > ― Ray Nicolette
