Quick Review: Objects

From Data Objects to Smart Objects

In Section 2 Logic and Flow, you learned how to use objects as data containers. Now, we'll transform these static data objects into dynamic, intelligent objects that can perform actions and manage their own state.

What You Already Know from Section 2:
Objects are collections of key-value pairs that let you store related data together. Think of them like containers that hold information about something.

// Object as a simple data container
const player = {
   name: "Alex",
   health: 100,
   level: 2,
   inventory: ["sword", "potion"]
};

// Accessing data
console.log(player.name);          // "Alex" 
console.log(player.health);        // 100 
console.log(player.inventory[0]);  // "sword" - access array element

// Updating data
player.health = 85;
