Typo. I'm worrying about this:
arr[i++]=obj[e]
More so the return =obj[e]
I worry on this:
arr[i++]//this will evaluate first before the value return since the = have a lower
precedence than ++.
So the index that is assign the object will be the index that contains it's string name.
Here reference for precedence:
