JavaScript Master Notes

Comprehensive Notes Covering Basic and Advanced JavaScript

Part 1: Basic JavaScript


Lecture 1: Introduction to JavaScript
JavaScript is a high-level, interpreted programming language that adds interactivity to web pages. It
runs in the browser and allows developers to manipulate HTML and CSS dynamically.

Example:
[Link]('Hello, JavaScript!');

History:
Developed by Brendan Eich in 1995, JavaScript was initially called Mocha, then LiveScript, before
becoming JavaScript. It’s now standardized under the ECMAScript specification.

Lecture 3: Variables and Data Types


Variables are containers for storing data values. In JavaScript, we declare them using var, let, or
const.

Example:
let name = 'Alice';
const PI = 3.14;
var age = 25;

Data types include: Number, String, Boolean, Undefined, Null, Object, and Symbol.
Part 2: Advanced JavaScript
Execution Context & Hoisting
When JavaScript code runs, it creates an Execution Context which determines how variables and
functions are accessed.
There are two phases:
1. Creation Phase – memory is allocated for variables and functions.
2. Execution Phase – code runs line-by-line.

Example:
[Link](a); // undefined
var a = 10;

Here, 'a' is hoisted to the top, but its value is assigned later.

Async / Await Example:


async function fetchData() {
let data = await fetch('[Link]
let json = await [Link]();
[Link](json);
}
fetchData();

Async/await makes asynchronous code look synchronous, improving readability.
