How to Assign values to each Letter Or Number in JavaScript?

Question

Like eg,
var name = prompt (“Type Your Name”)
document.write(name);

This is how it happens but I want to know how to assign values to each letter,

My name is Raaja and I want to assign values to each letter like,
R - Rabbit
A - Ate
J- Jagged

So when prompt appears and I type my name Raaja,
The result shows up like,
“Rabbit Ate Ate Jagged Ate”

How do we do that?
Im a rookie but I’m curious to know how it’s done! Would be absolutely one heck of a help if u help me!
Thanks In Advance 😁🙏

Answer 1

use an object to map letters to values

var letterMapper = {
a: "Ate",
b: "Boring",
c: "Cupid",
d: "Drama"
.....
}

for replacing letter with value just do something like this:

var name = "Raaja";
var res = "";
for(var letter of name){
res += letterMapper[letter.toLowerCase()] + " ";
}

Answer 2

np @Raaja 😎

Answer 3

You can use a two-dimensional array, and assign the letter on the first dimension, and the word on the second. Then you can make a loop that iterates through each letter in the text then match the key to its word value, then insert the output from each letter into a new array. Use another loop to print the elements of that array and insert whitespace between each element. That should pretty much be it.
