    Charlie Masterson

    Charlie Masterson is a computer programmer and instructor who has developed several applications and computer programs. As a computer science student, he got interested in programming early but got frustrated learning the highly complex subject matter. Charlie wanted a teaching method that he could easily learn from and develop his programming skills. He soon discovered a teaching series that made him learn faster and better. Applying the same approach, Charlie successfully learned different programming languages and is now teaching the subject matter through writing books. With the books that he writes on computer programming, he hopes to provide great value and help readers interested to learn computer-related topics.

      JavaScript - Charlie Masterson

      Introduction

      I want to thank you and congratulate you for owning my book, "JavaScript: Advanced Guide to Programming Code with JavaScript".

      This book contains a whole set of proven steps and strategies to help you learn more advanced JavaScript code. I must stress the word Advanced here – this book is not for you if you have not learnt the basics of JavaScript; it is aimed at those with prior knowledge and experience who want to further their knowledge and become better JavaScript programmers.

      You can go a long way in JavaScript just by using the basics but if you want to make the most of the power that JavaScript has to offer you need to learn a few more advanced concepts and techniques. These are designed to help you write code that is more expressive and can be reused. These are patterns that define a few features that you might not find in other computer programming languages and that is what makes this such a unique and powerful language.

      If this is your first computer programming language, you will more than likely find some of the patterns a little on the strange side but, with the explanations and the examples I have included, as well as me exercises for you to do (With the answers!), you will soon become familiar with it. You will find some of the chapters in this book are quite short while others are somewhat longer. I have tried to keep everything as concise as possible to make it easier for you to take it all in. You won’t find any long introductions in each chapter either; you should be at a level now where I can jump straight in and explain as I go along!

      Thank you again for reading my book; I truly hope that you find it useful and I wish you luck as you work your way through these advanced JavaScript techniques.

      Chapter 1:

      Optional Function Arguments

      When a function is declared in JavaScript, the function expects would usually have an argument list in it:

      Example:

      CODE:

      function sumValues(val1, val2, val3) {

      return val1 + val2 + val3;

      }

      Unfortunately, this won’t guarantee that your function is going to be called, every time, with three arguments. It is OK for the function to be passed with less or more than three:

      Example:

      var result1 = sumValues(3, 5, 6, 2, 7);

      var result2 = sumValues(12, 20);

      Both of these calls are going to result in some very surprising results from the perspective of the caller.

      In the first example, as we are only expecting three arguments, 2 and 7, which are the extra values, are going to be ignored. This isn’t good because the value that is returned won’t be what was expected by the calling code.

      The second example really isn’t any better; in fact, it’s worse. In this example, we only passed two arguments so what happened to val3? The value of val3 will be undefined and the result of
