JavaScript Variables

JavaScript Variables can be declared in 4 ways:


●​ Automatically
●​ Using var
●​ Using let
●​ Using const

Example:

x = 5;
var i = 10;
let y = 6;
const o = 8;

z = x + y;

When to Use var, let, or const?


1.​ Always declare variables
2.​ Always use const if the value should not be changed
3.​ Always use const if the type should not be changed (Arrays and Objects)
4.​ Only use let if you can't use const
5.​ Only use var if you MUST support old browsers.

Block Scope:
●​ Variables declared inside a { } block cannot be accessed from outside the block.

Global Scope:
●​ Variables declared with the var always have Global Scope.
●​ Variables declared with the var keyword can NOT have block scope.

Initializing arrays in JavaScript

const fruits = ['apple', 'orange', 'mango', 'grapes', 'pineapple'];

Initializing an object in JavaScript

const fruit = {
name: 'apple',
color: 'red',
taste: 'sweet',
};
JavaScript Conditional Statement Syntax

if (condition1) {
// block of code to be executed if condition1 is true
} else if (condition2) {
// block of code to be executed if the condition1 is false and
condition2 is true
} else {
// block of code to be executed if the condition1 is false and
condition2 is false
}

Example:

x = 5;

if (x == 5) {
text = 'Hep Hep';
} else {
text = 'Hooray';
} //output Hep Hep

JavaScript Switch Statement Syntax

x = 6;

switch (x) {
case 5:
text = 'Hep Hep';
break;
case 6:
text = 'Hooray';
break;
default:
text = 'Hello World';
} //output Hooray

JavaScript For Loop Syntax

const fruits = ['apple', 'orange', 'mango', 'grapes', 'pineapple'];


for (let i = 0; i < fruits.length; i++) {
text += fruits[i] + ', ';
}
// Output: apple, orange, mango, grapes, pineapple,
JavaScript For Of Loop
The JavaScript for of statement loops through the values of an iterable object.
Syntax:

for (variable of iterable) {


// code block to be executed
}

Example:

const fruits = ['apple', 'orange', 'mango', 'grapes', 'pineapple'];


for (fruit of fruits) {
text += fruits[i] + ', ';
}
// Output: apple, orange, mango, grapes, pineapple,

JavaScript For In Loop


The JavaScript for in statement loops through the properties of an Object
Syntax:

for (key in object) {


// code block to be executed
}

Example:

const fruit = {
name: 'apple',
color: 'red',
taste: 'sweet',
};
​ for (key in fruit) {
text += key + ': ' + fruit[key] + ', ';
}
