How to convert array to tree?
I have two arrays
["a", "b", "c"]
["a", "b", "d"]
I want to convert it to
{
a :
{
b :
{
c : null,
d : null
}

How can I do that?
var tree = {}
function addToTree(tree, array) {
for (var i = 0, length = array.length; i < length; i++) {
tree = tree[array[i]] = tree[array[i]] || {}
}
}
addToTree(tree, ["a", "b", "c"])
addToTree(tree, ["a", "b", "d"])
/*{
"a": {
"b": {
"c": {},
"d": {}
}
}
}*/
Only thing it doesn't do is set the leaves of the tree to null -- it sets them to an empty object. Is that ok?
If you want the leaves to be null, then use the following instead:
function addToTree(tree, array) {
for (var i = 0, length = array.length; i < length; i++) {
tree = tree[array[i]] = ((i == length - 1) ? null : tree[array[i]] || {})
}
}
// or, without the i == length - 1 check in each iteration:
function addToTree(tree, array) {
for (var i = 0, length = array.length; i < length -1; i++) {
tree = tree[array[i]] = tree[array[i]] || {};
}
tree[array[i]] = null;
}
/*{
"a": {
"b": {
"c": null,
"d": null
}
}
}*/
