I have a component and try to assign to an object some props. On try no1. I have no err but nothing is displayed on UI and in try no2 I have an error "cannot set property number of undefined".



days: Day = ;
now: Date = new Date();

ngOnInit() {
this.days = ;

for (let i = 0; i < this.numberOfDaysCurrentMonth; i++) {
// try no.1
this.days.forEach(x => x.number = i);
this.days.forEach(x => x.weekDay = new Date(this.currentYear, this.currentMonth - 1, i).getDay());
this.days.forEach(x => x.name = '')

//try no.2
this.days[i].number = i;
this.days[i].weekDay = new Date(this.currentYear, this.currentMonth - 1, i).getDay());
this.days[i].name = ''
}


and



export class Day {
number: number;
weekDay: number;
name: string;
}

    Where are you ever adding data to this.days?

    this.days[i] will always be undefined, since the days array is never populated.

What you need to do is add the day to the days array when you loop over this.numberOfDaysCurrentMonth



ngOnInit() {
this.days = ;

for (let i = 0; i < this.numberOfDaysCurrentMonth; i++) {
let day = {
number: i,
weekDay: new Date(this.currentYear, this.currentMonth - 1, i).getDay(),
name: ''
}
this.days.push(day);
}
}


Your try with this.days.forEach doesn't do anything because it loops over each object in the days array which is empty.



Similarly, this.days[i] is really undefined because the array is empty.

    Your array is never filled with any entries. this.days.forEach is going to do something for every item in the array, but as the array is empty, i doesn't do anything.



    You should populate the array first and then use forEach on it.
