How to convert string to object array in jquery

Question

I have a string as shown below

[{ date: new Date(2015,9,25), NAV: 12},{ date: new Date(2016,9,25), NAV: 22}]

how can i convert that to object array using jQuery?

Is new Date(2015,9,25) part of your string? If it is, it will throw error. — sam

Since new Date(2015,9,25) is not valid JSON, than you need to use eval(yourString) to parse your string to valid Object:

console.log(eval('[{ date: new Date(2015,9,25), NAV: 12},{ date: new Date(2016,9,25), NAV: 22}]'));

You can convert to a valid Javascript object using function

JSON.parse(str);

but string should be in valid json format.

try this,

var obj = $.parseJSON(jsonString);

or 

var obj = jQuery.parseJSON(jsonString);

What's the difference between two lines of code? When it's better to use first over second?

'$' and 'jQuery' both are same, except '$' is just an alias of 'jQuery'.

you can convert it to json.parse:

    var json = $.parseJSON(myString)

or you can refer this link below
