Ahaan, No time waste let's directly check those questions.
Q1- What is a callback?
Callback functions are passed as arguments of other functions and they are normally executed at the end of the parent function.
For an example check this
Q2- What is CORS?
Cross-Origin Resource Sharing or CORS is a mechanism that uses additional HTTP headers to grant a browser permission to access resources from a server at an origin different from the website
origin.
An example of a cross-origin request is a web application served from http://myowndomain.com
that uses AJAX to make a request for http://yourbaddomain.com
.
Q3- Evaluate 0.1 + 0.2 === 0.3 ?
It evaluates to false
because JavaScript uses the IEEE 754 standard for Math and it makes use of 64-bit floating numbers. This causes precision errors when doing decimal calculations, in short, due to computers working in Base 2 while decimal is Base 10.
0.1 + 0.2
//OUTPUT
//0.30000000000000004
Q4- What is the difference between lexical scoping and dynamic scoping ?
Lexical scoping or Static scoping refers to when the location of a function's definition determines which variables you have access to. On the other hand, dynamic scoping uses the location of the function's invocation to determine which variables are available.
For better source code we often use Lexical scoping.
Q5- What is the difference between undefined
and null
?
undefined
and null
?The major difference - null
is explicit while undefined
is implicit. Let's say we have a variable and we don't have a value associated with that, so that makes it undefined but null
is set as the value to explicitly indicate โno valueโ. undefined
is used when the nothing is "not" known, and null
is used when the nothing is known.
Q6- Does JavaScript pass by value or by reference?
Pass by value
always.However, with objects, the value is a reference to the object.
Q7- What is the output of the following code?
const a = [0, 1, 2]
const b = [0, 1, 2]
const c = "0,1,2"
console.log(a == c)
console.log(a == b)
TRUE - automatic type conversion
FALSE - Arrays are compared by reference
Q8- Are semicolons required in JavaScript?
Sometimes
Semicolons are usually optional in JavaScript but have edge cases where they are required.
If you don't use semicolons, tools like Prettier will insert semicolons for you in the places where they are required to save in a text editor to prevent errors.
Q9- What does the following code evaluate to?
typeof typeof 0
It evaluates to "string".
typeof 0
evaluates to number
and typeof "number"
evalutes to string
Enough for today
But not for JavaScript ;)
