Given an array containing functions and the task is to access its element in different ways using JavaScript.
Approach:
- Declare an array of functions.
- The array of functions works with indexes like an array function.
Example 1: In this example, the function call is initiated from the element of the array but the function is defined somewhere else. We can pass arguments to the function while calling.
html
< body style = "text-align:center;" > < h1 style = "color:green;" > GeeksForGeeks </ h1 > < h3 >Array of functions in javascript</ h3 > < p id = "GFG_UP" style="font-size: 19px; font-weight: bold;"> </ p > < button onClick = "GFG_Fun()" > click here </ button > < p id = "GFG_DOWN" style="color: green; font-size: 24px; font-weight: bold;"> </ p > < script > var up = document.getElementById('GFG_UP'); var down = document.getElementById('GFG_DOWN'); function firstFun(str) { down.innerHTML = str; } function secondFun(str) { down.innerHTML = str; } function thirdFun(str) { down.innerHTML = str; } // Declare array of functions var arrayOfFunction = [ firstFun, secondFun, thirdFun ] up.innerHTML = "Calling function from the array of functions"; // Function call function GFG_Fun() { arrayOfFunction[0]("This is first function"); } </ script > </ body > |
Output:
Example 2: In this example, the function (anonymous) itself is defined as the elements of the array. We can access it by accessing the element of the array followed by ().
html
< body style = "text-align:center;" > < h1 style = "color:green;" > GeeksForGeeks </ h1 > < h3 >Array of functions in JavaScript</ h3 > < p id = "GFG_UP" style="font-size: 19px; font-weight: bold;"> </ p > < button onClick = "GFG_Fun()" > click here </ button > < p id = "GFG_DOWN" style="color: green; font-size: 24px; font-weight: bold;"> </ p > < script > var up = document.getElementById('GFG_UP'); var down = document.getElementById('GFG_DOWN'); // Declare an array of functions var arrayOfFunction = [ function() { down.innerHTML = "Inside First function"; }, function() { down.innerHTML = "Inside Second function"; }, function() { down.innerHTML = "Inside Third function"; } ] up.innerHTML = "Calling function from the array of functions"; function GFG_Fun() { arrayOfFunction[2](); } </ script > </ body > |
Output:
