Convert javascript array to object of same keys/values

In this article we will learn how we can convert javascript array to object of same keys/values in JavaScript.

So, suppose we have an array, [ "australia", "brazil", "USA", "Japan" ] and now we have to convert it to an Object with same key and value, example { australia : "australia", brazil : "brazil", USA : "USA", japan : "japan" }.

So to convert it into same keys/value pair object we will be using the reduce() method of javascript.

The reduce() method executes a reducer function for each value in an array and return a single value which is the accumulated result.
