Variables in standard JavaScript have no type attached, so any value (each value has a type) can be stored in any variable. Starting with ES6 , the 6th version of the language, variables could be declared with var for function scoped variables, and let or const which are for block level variables.
Since ES 2015, transpiling JavaScript has become very common. Transpilation is a source-to-source compilation in which newer versions of JavaScript are used, and a transpiler rewrites the source code so that it is supported by older browsers. Usually, transpilers transpile down to ES3 to maintain compatibility with all versions of browsers.
In object-oriented languages, an iterator, even if implicit, is often used as the means of traversal. The foreach statement in some languages has some defined order, processing each item in the collection from the first to the last. The foreach statement in many other languages, especially array programming languages, does not have any ...
The identity matcher toBe checks if two things are the same object. The condition matchers toBeTruthy, toBeFalsy evaluate if something is true or false and toBeDefined, toBeUndefined check if something is defined or undefined. As the name suggests toBeNull checks if something is null and toBeNaN checks if something is not a number . Precision ...
This version introduces the Object.groupBy and Map.groupBy static methods, Promise.withResolvers, and the /v unicode flag for regular expressions. The Object.groupBy and Map.groupBy methods groups an iterable using the return value of a provided callback function.
In July 2005, George Jempty suggested an optional variable assignment be prepended to JSON. [19] [20] The original proposal for JSONP, where the padding is a callback function, appears to have been made by Bob Ippolito in December 2005 [21] and is now used by many Web 2.0 applications such as Dojo Toolkit and Google Web Toolkit.
Mock objects have the same interface as the real objects they mimic, allowing a client object to remain unaware of whether it is using a real object or a mock object. Many available mock object frameworks allow the programmer to specify which methods will be invoked on a mock object, in what order, what parameters will be passed to them, and what values will be returned.
In object-oriented computer programming, a null object is an object with no referenced value or with defined neutral (null) behavior.The null object design pattern, which describes the uses of such objects and their behavior (or lack thereof), was first published as "Void Value" [1] and later in the Pattern Languages of Program Design book series as "Null Object".
