An object property can be accessed in two ways. One is .property and the other is [property].

Syntax-2

Object["property"];

For better understanding, lets' look at the following example.

   age:50,
   designation:"content developer"
};
document.write(person.firstname + " " + "is in a role of" + " " + person.designation);
</script>
</body>
</html>

Output
