Overview of JavaScript

JavaScript is a high-level, interpreted programming language primarily used to create interactive effects within web browsers. It is a versatile language used in web development, server-side development, game development, and more. JavaScript’s popularity makes it a valuable language for both beginners and experienced developers. Learn more at W3Schools.

Key Features of JavaScript:

Basic Syntax

JavaScript uses curly braces {} to define blocks of code, and semicolons ; are often used to end statements. Here’s a simple example:

if (true) {
        console.log("This is a block of code.");
    }

JavaScript Examples:

Here are some basic examples of JavaScript code:

1. Hello World

console.log("Hello, World!");

2. Simple Calculator


    // This function adds two numbers
    function add(a, b) {
        return a + b;
    }
    
    // Example usage
    const result = add(5, 3);
    console.log("The sum is:", result);
        

3. Factorial Calculation


    // Function to calculate factorial
    function factorial(n) {
        if (n === 0) {
            return 1;
        } else {
            return n * factorial(n - 1);
        }
    }
    
    // Example usage
    console.log(factorial(5)); // Output: 120
        

Data Types in JavaScript

JavaScript supports various data types, including:

Control Flow

JavaScript uses control flow statements such as if, for, and while to control the execution of code:

for (let i = 0; i < 5; i++) {
        console.log(i);
    }

Functions in JavaScript

Functions are defined using the function keyword or with arrow function syntax:

function greet(name) {
        return `Hello, ${name}!`;
    }
    
    console.log(greet("Alice")); // Output: Hello, Alice!
        

Common Libraries and Frameworks

Some popular libraries and frameworks include:
