CSPP552: Web Programming, JavaScript part 6

Functions

• Defined like this:
  

  function foo(bar, baz) {
      var junk;
      ..
      junk = do_stuff(bar, baz);
      ..
      return junk;
  }
  

• Nested functions supported in JavaScript 1.2
  • Are you really going to use them?
• Functions are also used as object constructors (!)

  function schmoo(stuff, junk) {
     this.foo = stuff;
     this.bar = junk;
  }
  
  var n = new schmoo("this is", "ridiculous");
