5. 5.
6. 6. }

5. 5. TrainNumber: engId
6. 6.
7. 7. }
8. 8. )
9. )}

D1. 1. {
2. 2. trains:
3. 3. a map ((engId, index) ->

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: A

For such questions always look for Syntax:

I call it 'Wrap the Map'

trains:

{(

When mapping array elements (JSON or JAVA) to XML, wrap the map operations in {(..)}

-{ } are defining the object

-( ) are transforming each element in the array as a key/value pair

I'm not sure which one to choose. Both A and B seem valid to me. What do you think, Benedict and Cecilia?

I see your point, Sage. Option B does seem more concise in transforming the array.

I disagree. I believe the answer is B because it directly maps the array to XML without unnecessary brackets.
