// *** Explanation line by line ***
// Explaining the bellow line
// It checks if obj has at least one property. Here is how:
// Object.keys(obj) will return an array with all keys in obj
// If there is no keys in obj, it will return empty array = []
// Then it will get it's length, if it has at least one element,
// it's bigger than 0 which evaluates to true and the bellow
// code will be executed.
// Else means it's length = 0 which evaluates to false
// NOTE: you can use Object.hasOwnProperty() instead of Object.keys(obj).length
if(Object.keys(obj).length) {
// Explaining the bellow line
// Just like in the previous line, this returns an array with
// all keys in obj (because if code execution got here, it means
// obj has keys.)
// Then just invoke built-in javascript forEach() to loop
// over each key in returned array and calls a call back function
// on each array element (key), using ES6 arrow function (=>)
// Or you can just use a normal function ((key) { blah blah }).
Object.keys(obj).forEach(key => {
// The bellow line prints out all keys with their
// respective value in obj.
// key comes from the returned array in Object.keys(obj)
// obj[key] returns the value of key in obj
console.log("\n" + key + ": " + obj[key]);
});
