| ## Use Array.map() to Dynamically Render Elements
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Hint 1:
 | |
| 
 | |
| Define the two states as a JavaScript ```object```.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```javascript
 | |
| {object: state, object: state}
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Hint 2:
 | |
| 
 | |
| You need ```.map()``` to generate a line for every object in the array.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```javascript
 | |
| this.state.toDoList.map(i => <li>{i}</li>);
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Solution:
 | |
| 
 | |
| Once you add the map function, you will notice that it will generate a ```<li>``` for every item you put in the list.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```jsx
 | |
| const textAreaStyles = {
 | |
|   width: 235,
 | |
|   margin: 5
 | |
| };
 | |
| 
 | |
| class MyToDoList extends React.Component {
 | |
|   constructor(props) {
 | |
|     super(props);
 | |
|     // change code below this line
 | |
|     this.state = {
 | |
|       userInput: '',
 | |
|       toDoList: []
 | |
|     }
 | |
|     // change code above this line
 | |
|     this.handleSubmit = this.handleSubmit.bind(this);
 | |
|     this.handleChange = this.handleChange.bind(this);
 | |
|   }
 | |
|   handleSubmit() {
 | |
|     const itemsArray = this.state.userInput.split(',');
 | |
|     this.setState({
 | |
|       toDoList: itemsArray
 | |
|     });
 | |
|   }
 | |
|   handleChange(e) {
 | |
|     this.setState({
 | |
|       userInput: e.target.value
 | |
|     });
 | |
|   }
 | |
|   render() {
 | |
|     const items = this.state.toDoList.map(i => <li>{i}</li>); // change code here
 | |
|     return (
 | |
|       <div>
 | |
|         <textarea
 | |
|           onChange={this.handleChange}
 | |
|           value={this.state.userInput}
 | |
|           style={textAreaStyles}
 | |
|           placeholder="Separate Items With Commas" /><br />
 | |
|         <button onClick={this.handleSubmit}>Create List</button>
 | |
|         <h1>My "To Do" List:</h1>
 | |
|         <ul>
 | |
|           {items}
 | |
|         </ul>
 | |
|       </div>
 | |
|     );
 | |
|   }
 | |
| };
 | |
| ```
