Take a look at the following code:
1 let x = 1;
2 function f1()
3 {
4 let x = 2;
5 console.log(x);
6 }
7 console.log(x);
Explain why line 4 and line 6 output different numbers.
variable scope different. The variable x on the line 4 is LOCAL variable in function f1() so console.log(x) on the line 5 will output 2. The variable x on the line is GLOBAL variable so console.log(x) on the line 7 will output 1.
Take a look at the following code:
let x = 10
function f1()
{
console.log(x)
let y = 20
}
console.log(f1())
console.log(y)
What will be the output of this code. Explain your answer in 50 words or less.
console.log(f1()) output 10. console.log(y) output undefined because the y variable is in the function f1() so console.log(y) can't access it from outside of the function.
Take a look at the following code:
const x = 9;
function f1(val) {
val = val + 1;
return val;
}
f1(x);
console.log(x);
const y = { x: 9 };
function f2(val) {
val.x = val.x + 1;
return val;
}
f2(y);
console.log(y);
What will be the output of this code. Explain your answer in 50 words or less.
x=9,y={x:10} because x is global variable and f1's increment only in f1 so x still output 9. y is same from x but y is object that pass by reference so it will be {x:10}
