Here is a list of things I learned/googled that I don’t want to forget:
An instance is an object that has been created and exists in memory
Operators are symbols that are used to perform operations
Methods are actions that you can perform
Codeacademy uses ‘append’ a lot, which I never say. Googled it to check…means add onto the end!
You can find properties and methods of different objects in the JavaScript documentation e.g. the Math object https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Math
Generate a random number between 0–100
console.log(Math.random() *100);
…and then round it to the nearest whole
console.log(Math.floor(Math.random() *100));
I used the documentation to find this next bit, woo!
console.log(Math.ceil(43.8));
This returns the smallest integer greater than or equal to a decimal num.
You can write single line comments with //blah blah
You can write multiple line comments with /* blah blah
blah blah
blah blah */
There are 7 fundamental data types in JavaScript: strings, numbers, booleans, null, undefined, symbol, and object.
