Could you please elaborate? What unique data are we talking about?

Not exactly sure what you mean by unique data but if you mean add another property to each object below is a function that you could use to easily add data into the json data. I just required it in as jsonObj for testing purposes. Hope this helps!

const jsonObj = require('./clonedJSON');

function addUniqueData(arr) {
    // loop through the jsonObj
    for (let i = 0; i < arr.length; i++) {
        // add unique data to each country object
        arr[i].uniqueData = i + 'xyz';
    }
    return arr;
}

console.log(addUniqueData(jsonObj));

@sanilborkar as @pswartz66 rightly prompted, by unique data I mean , data that is unique to every country and it doesn't changes with time. for example: Land area, capital etc.. a wrong example would be population (since it changes with time, its variable)

Thanks @pswartz66 ! I' ll definitely use this helper function! Appreciate it!

1. Does year of independence suffice for unique data?
2. If it does, what will the value be for countries without an independence date like England?

[bhatvikrant]

@sudo-kaizen yes, this will be considered as unique data. For countries like England just add the string : 'N/A'

Is this issue still open?

[bhatvikrant]

@faraz16iqbal yes it is.

@bhatvikrant

Would you consider popular tourist attractions as Unique ? E.g

France: ['Eiffel Tower'],
India: ['Taj Mahal', 'Qutub Minar'],

[bhatvikrant]

Since we have #32 Issue opened, there is no reason for having this one as well. So for now lets stick to one issue opened.

On the other hand, I think we should have separate Issues created for each bug/feature, so the discussion is clear.
