Study Notes
Function and Number Manipulation
- The
argumentsproperty in JavaScript is an array-like object that holds the values passed to a function, but it does not have array methods likereduce. - To use array methods on
arguments, it must be converted to an actual array using methods likeArray.from().
Caching and Error Handling
- The
getUsernameFromCache()function converts an 'id' to a number to retrieve usernames, returningnullif not found. - Invalid numeric conversions result in
NaN. Errors in functions prevent further code execution unless handled in try-catch blocks.
Number Formatting
- To format numbers to two decimal places, use
toFixed(2). This ensures proper display even if original numbers have no decimal parts.
Array Manipulation
- The spread syntax (
...) effectively expands an array into its constituent elements when merging with another array. - This is important to ensure that additional elements, such as sales users, are included in arrays without nesting them.
Boolean Evaluation
- When assessing values in an object, Boolean conversions can be achieved through multiple methods:
- Using
Boolean(), double bang!!, and ternary operators.
- Using
- Values that are
null,undefined, or empty strings are considered falsy, while others are treated as truthy.
Data Structure and Filtering
- The
map()method transforms array elements, whilefilter()creates new arrays based on conditions. - To exclude specific elements, such as those containing "500 kW", one should use
filter()prior tomap().
Strict Mode in JavaScript
- Enabling strict mode introduces restrictions, mandating variable declarations. Undeclared variables will cause errors.
User Input Filtering
- User input verification can be executed via conditional checks on numeric values, ensuring only non-zero numbers pass the check.
- Explicit coercions may lead to undesired behavior, such as inadvertently passing non-numeric values.
Array Flattening
- The
flat()method reduces multi-dimensional arrays to a single array representation based on specified depth, withInfinityflattening all levels.
Total Calculation in Arrays
- The
reduce()function is crucial for accumulating totals, requiring a callback to manage accumulated values properly. The initial value must be specified appropriately to avoid computation errors.
