Study Notes
JavaScript Advanced Operators
-
Arrow Functions: Provide a concise way to write functions using the
=>syntax.- Parameters: Listed before the arrow.
-
Single-Line Expression: No
returnstatement needed (eg.,param => param * 2). -
Code Block: Enclosed in curly braces
{}with an explicitreturnstatement. -
thisBinding: Inheritthisfrom surrounding scope.
-
Destructuring: Unpacks values from arrays or object properties into distinct variables.
- Arrays: Define variables to assign values from an array.
- Objects: Define variables to assign values from object properties.
-
Rest Operator (
...): Handles unassigned elements in arrays for example[first,...rest].
-
Spread Operator (
...): Expands iterables (like arrays, strings) in contexts that expect multiple elements.-
Function Calls: Used to pass array elements as individual arguments. For example
console.log(Math.max(...nums)). -
Array Initialization: Used to create new arrays containing elements from existing arrays and other elements e.g
const moreNums = [...nums, 4, 5]. -
Object Creation: Used to create new objects by copying existing object properties and adding additional ones without altering the original object. For example
const obj2 = {...obj1, c: 3 }.
-
Function Calls: Used to pass array elements as individual arguments. For example
-
Ternary Operator: Offers a compact syntax for conditional expressions.
-
Syntax:
condition ? expressionIfTrue : expressionIfFalse
-
Syntax:
-
Nullish Coalescing Operator (
??): Provides a concise way to assign a default value if a value isnullorundefined.-
Syntax:
value ?? default - Returns the
defaultvalue ifvalueisnullorundefined, otherwise returnsvalue.
-
Syntax:
-
Caution: While useful for conciseness, overuse of these operators in complex combinations or long statements can hinder code readability. Consider the trade-off between fewer lines of code and easier maintenance.
