Array Iteration

well you'd have to have a valid array. but you only want the info value? or you want anything in that place?

ok so you have an array and what are you wanting to get out of the array?

so you could have multiple objects in this outermost array with a time key? and specifically the string "time"?

ok, so after that you want an array of all of the objects with a location key? are there only locations inside that array?

and you want a single array of just the items that are inside a "time" key?

ok, that's less simple but still doable going to take 3 steps rather than 2

so wait. the "time" string isn't actually the string "time" it's some other string?

const times = array.filter(item => item.hasOwnProperty(varHoldingTimeString));
const locations = times.flatMap(item => item[varHoldingTimeString]);
const location = locations.find(location => location.hasOwnProperty(varHoldingLocationString));

const times = array.filter(item => item.hasOwnProperty(varHoldingTimeString));
const locations = times.flatMap(item => item[varHoldingTimeString]);
const location = locations.find(location => location.hasOwnProperty(varHoldingLocationString));
