Convert array of comma separated strings to array of objects

Question

I want to convert an array to object with key-value pairs.

The array is like this:

latLngArray = [ '52.12,-106.65', '53.53,-113.50' ]

I want to convert it to array of objects like this:

[{lat: 52.12, lng: -106.65}, {lat: 53.53, lng: -113.50}]

I tried to separate each element in the array with split but didn't help.

How can I convert this array to an object?

Try this with simple map()

latLngArray = ['52.12,-106.65', '53.53,-113.50'];
result = latLngArray.map(coords => {
  const [lat, lng] = coords.split(',');
  return {
    lat,
    lng
  };
});

console.log(result)

Thank you. How can I apply parseFloat to your solution to convert the numbers to float?

Consider doing const [lat, lng] = coords.split(',').map(Number)

return {lat: parseFloat(lat), lng: parseFloat(lng)};
