Welcome! Today, we will explore creating a simple address book application using JavaScript Map
. This task will help you understand manipulating Map
in JavaScript, focusing on adding, retrieving, and deleting entries. By the end of this lesson, you'll have a solid grasp of these fundamental operations.
In this task, we will implement three methods to manage our address book:
addContact(name, phoneNumber)
: Adds a new contact. Returnsfalse
if the contact already exists; otherwise, it adds the contact and returnstrue
. In this task, let's assume phone numbers do not change, so it's not allowed to overwrite the existing contact's number.getContact(name)
: Retrieves the phone number for a givenname
. Returnsundefined
if the contact does not exist.deleteContact(name)
: Deletes a contact with the givenname
. Returnstrue
if the contact exists and is deleted, otherwise.
