Associative arrays are basically objects in JavaScript where indexes are replaced by user defined keys. They do not have a length property like normal array and cannot be traversed using normal for loop.

<style>
body {
font-family: "Segoe UI", Tahoma, Geneva, Verdana, sans-serif;
}
.result {
font-size: 20px;
font-weight: 500;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Associative array in JavaScript</h1>
<div style="color: green;" class="result"></div>
<button class="Btn">CLICK HERE</button>
