Angular 2 declaring dynamic property inside component

Question

I want to declare some properties inside the component like so

export class HeroComponent implements OnInit {

    hero1:
    hero2:
    hero3:
    hero4:
    ...
    hero999:

}

Is there a better way to declare these properties instead of writing them all out?

Answer 1

export class HeroComponent implements OnInit {
  heroes: any[] = [];

  constructor() {
    for(var i = 1; i < 1000; i++) {
      this.heroes.push('hero'+i);
    }
  }
}
