Topic Explanations with Examples:
Introduction to JavaScript:
Explanation: JavaScript is a high-level, interpreted programming language primarily
used for client-side web development. It enables dynamic content and interactivity
in web pages.
Basic Syntax:
Explanation: JavaScript syntax includes variables, data types, operators, and control
structures.
let x = 5;
if (x > 0) {
[Link]("Positive");
} else {
[Link]("Non-positive");
Functions:
Explanation: Functions are blocks of reusable code. They can take parameters and
return values.
CODE :
function greet(name) {
return "Hello, " + name + "!";
[Link](greet("John"));
Arrays and Objects:
Explanation: Arrays and objects are data structures used to store collections of
values.
CODE :
let numbers = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5];
let person = { name: "John", age: 30 };
DOM Manipulation:
Explanation: The DOM represents the structure of HTML documents. JavaScript
can manipulate it to change content, style, and behavior.
CODE :
[Link]("myButton").addEventListener("click", function() {
[Link]("myDiv").innerHTML = "Button clicked!";
});
Asynchronous JavaScript:
Explanation: Asynchronous operations allow non-blocking execution, commonly
used for fetching data from servers or handling user interactions.
Example using Promise:
CODE :
function fetchData() {
return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
setTimeout(() => {
resolve("Data fetched successfully");
}, 2000);
});
}
fetchData().then(data => {
[Link](data);
});
Error Handling:
Explanation: Error handling in JavaScript involves catching and handling exceptions
to prevent program crashes.
CODE :
try { // Code that may throw an error
throw new Error("Something went wrong");
} catch (error) {
[Link]([Link]);
ES6 Features:
Explanation: ES6 introduced new features like let and const for variable declaration,
arrow functions, template literals, etc.
Example using arrow function:
CODE :
const square = (x) => x * x;
[Link](square(5)); // Output: 25
Modules:
Explanation: ES6 modules allow splitting code into reusable modules.
CODE :
export function greet(name) {
return "Hello, " + name + "!";
}
// [Link]
import { greet } from './[Link]';
[Link](greet("Alice")); // Output: Hello, Alice!
Browser APIs:
Explanation: Browser APIs provide additional functionality to JavaScript for
interacting with the browser environment.
Example using Local Storage:
CODE :
[Link]("username", "John");
[Link]([Link]("username")); // Output: John
Regular Expressions:
Explanation: Regular expressions are patterns used to match character
combinations in strings.
CODE :
const regex = /[0-9]+/;
[Link]([Link]("abc123")); // Output: true
Strict Mode:
Explanation: Strict mode enforces stricter parsing and error handling, helping to
write cleaner and more secure
x = 3.14; // Throws an error in strict mode
Iterators and Generators:
Explanation: Iterators are objects that provide a way to iterate over data
collections. Generators are functions that enable easy iteration with custom-
defined sequences.
Example using Iterators:
let arr = [1, 2, 3];
let iterator = arr[[Link]]();
[Link]([Link]()); // Output: { value: 1, done: false }
[Link]([Link]()); // Output: { value: 2, done: false }
[Link]([Link]()); // Output: { value: 3, done: false }
[Link]([Link]()); // Output: { value: undefined, done: true }
Example using Generators:
function* generator() {
yield 1;
yield 2;
yield 3;
let gen = generator();
[Link]([Link]()); // Output: { value: 1, done: false }
[Link]([Link]()); // Output: { value: 2, done: false }
[Link]([Link]()); // Output: { value: 3, done: false }
[Link]([Link]()); // Output: { value: undefined, done: true }
Higher-order Functions:
Explanation: Higher-order functions are functions that can take other
functions as arguments or return them as results.
Example:
function higherOrderFunction(callback) {
callback();
function callbackFunction() {
[Link]("Callback function called");
higherOrderFunction(callbackFunction); // Output: Callback function called
Promises:
Explanation: Promises represent a value that may be available now, in the
future, or never. They are used for handling asynchronous operations.
Example:
let promise = new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
setTimeout(() => {
resolve("Promise resolved");
}, 2000);
});
[Link](result => {
[Link](result); // Output: Promise resolved
});
Async/Await:
Explanation: Async/await is a syntax for handling asynchronous operations in
a more synchronous-like manner, introduced in ES8 (ES2017).
Example:
async function fetchData() {
let promise = new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
setTimeout(() => {
resolve("Data fetched successfully");
}, 2000);
});
let result = await promise;
[Link](result); // Output: Data fetched successfully
fetchData();
Closures:
Explanation: Closures are functions that have access to variables from their
outer scope even after the outer function has finished executing.
Example:
function outerFunction() {
let outerVariable = "I'm outer";
function innerFunction() {
[Link](outerVariable);
return innerFunction;
let closure = outerFunction();
closure(); // Output: I'm outer
Event Loop:
Explanation: The event loop is JavaScript's mechanism for handling
asynchronous operations. It allows non-blocking I/O operations to be
performed despite JavaScript being single-threaded.
Example:
[Link]("Start");
setTimeout(() => {
[Link]("Timeout");
}, 0);
[Link]().then(() => {
[Link]("Promise");
});
[Link]("End");
Output:
Start
End
Promise
Timeout
