How to preserve values in a multiple iteration 1

[ttomasko]

Hello,

I have a script that has three levels of for statements. Right now the end result is that I get returned the last values of each array. What I wish however is to preserve the values of the first and second iterations.

var a = [1,2,3];
var b = ["a","b"];
var c = ["x","y","z"];

for(var i = 0; a.length> i; i++){
	var aValue = a[i];
	for(var j = 0; b.length> j; j++){
		var bValue = b[j];
		for(var k = 0; c.length> k; k++){
			var cValue = c[k];
			}//end for k
		}//end for j
	}//end for i
alert(aValue+bValue+cValue+", ");

This returns 3bz,. However, what I want is:

1ax, 1ay, 1az
1bx, 1by, 1bz
2ax, 2ay, 2az, etc.

How can I construct this to get that result?

Thanks,
Tom

Either concatenate the values, or use an array.

Sticking an alert after the loops are finished will always yield only the last results of the loop. Because each time the loop runs, you overwrite the values of your variables.
The Concatenation would look something like:

var a = [1,2,3];
var b = ["a","b"];
var c = ["x","y","z"];
var finalval="";
for(var i = 0; a.length> i; i++){
    var aValue = a[i];
    for(var j = 0; b.length> j; j++){
        var bValue = b[j];
        for(var k = 0; c.length> k; k++){
            var cValue = c[k];
   [red]    finalval+=aValue + bValue + cValue + ", "; [/red]
            }//end for k
[red]finalval+="\n\r";[/red]
        }//end for j
    }//end for i
alert([red]finalval)[/red];

Thanks Phil!

Now to stick this in to the much more complicated script...
