Formating of var data in jquery

I have a var in jquery which contains values like this ..

var data = [["Local", 75], ["STD", 55], ["ISD", 96], ["VOIP", 123], ["INCOMING", 34], ["INET", 104]];

Now i have another var which contains values like ..

var data2=["LOCAL,200","STD,120","ISD,200","VOIP,500","INCOMING,234","INET,104"]

So my question is how can i convert var data2 to var data because ,my application needs the data in the var data format.

Please help .

This'll do it:

var data2=["LOCAL,200","STD,120","ISD,200","VOIP,500","INCOMING,234","INET,104"]
data = data2.map(function(e){return e.split(',')});

result:

data === [["LOCAL","200"], ["STD","120"], ["ISD","200"],
          ["VOIP","500"], ["INCOMING","234"], ["INET","104"]]

Or, if the 2nd item in the "sub-arrays" has to be a integer:

data = data2.map(function(e){
    var temp = e.split(',');
    temp[1] = parseInt(temp[1], 10);
    return temp;
});

result:

data === [["LOCAL",200], ["STD",120], ["ISD",200],
          ["VOIP",500], ["INCOMING",234], ["INET",104]]

However, possibly the best solution would be to form it into a object like this:

data = data2.reduce(function(obj, current){
    var temp = current.split(',');
    obj[temp[0]] = parseInt(temp[1], 10)
    return obj;
}, {});

result:

data === {"LOCAL":200, "STD":120, "ISD":200,
          "VOIP":500, "INCOMING":234, "INET":104};
