Study Notes
Logical Operators
- The expression
(a && b)
will be true if botha
andb
are true; ifa = 10
andb = 20
, the expression will be true. - The Logical OR operator (
||
) becomes true if at least one of the operands is true. - The Logical NOT operator (
!
) negates the operand, converting true to false and vice versa.
Variables and Operators
- If
a > b
, the result of(a || b)
will bea
. - The assignment operator
*
is not used for simple assignment; it is used for multiplication. - The
-=
operator subtracts the value ofA
fromC
, so ifC = 15
andA = 7
,C
will be8
.
JavaScript Basics
-
alert('Hello, World!')
displays a message box with the text "Hello, World!". -
prompt()
is used to prompt the user for input in JavaScript. - Evaluating the expression
5 + 3 * 2
in a JavaScript console gives11
. - The method name mentioned in the text is not specified.
- Pressing
Ctrl + Shift + I
opens the developer tools in Chrome.
Conditional Operator and typeof
Operator
- The conditional operator in JavaScript is a ternary operator that returns one of two values based on a condition.
- The
typeof
operator returns the type of its operand, such as number, string, boolean, object, function, undefined, or null. - If the operand of the
typeof
operator is a boolean value, it returns "boolean". - If the operand of the
typeof
operator is an object, it returns "object". - The
document.write('b is of type = ', typeof a);
statement prints "b is of type = " followed by the type ofa
.
Programming Paradigms
- JavaScript usually runs on the client-side.
- A key benefit of running JavaScript on the client-side is that it reduces the load on the server.
- Imperative programming differs from declarative programming in that imperative programming focuses on steps to accomplish a task, whereas declarative programming focuses on the desired outcome.
- Imperative programs read to the computer as a series of commands.
- JavaScript falls under imperative programming.
Miscellaneous
- Besides number, string, boolean, object, function, undefined, and null, the
typeof
operator can evaluate to "symbol" or "bigint". - In the 'Do It Yourself' section, the loop counts up to
10
