How to sum property values of an object?

Question

I want to sum the property values of PieData. My expected output is 25515512+916952499 = 942468011

Answer 1

Things to change:

• initialise total as 0 because + operator on string concatenates the values.
• $.each loops over the object passed, So you can directly access that in callback to calculate sum.

Sample Snippet:

 var PieData = [{
   value: 25515512,
   color: "#00a65a",
   highlight: "#00a65a",
   label: "Received Fund"

 }, {
   value: 916952499,
   color: "#f56954",
   highlight: "#f56954",
   label: "Pending Fund"
 }];

 //calculating total
 var total = 0;
 $.each(PieData, function(index, value) {
   total += value.value;
 })
 alert(total)
