How Object.entries work internally in JavaScript
In JavaScript, the Object.entries method returns an array of object’s own enumerable properties. It returns properties as a [key, value] pair, where the key is a string. You can read enumerable properties as an array of key-value pairs using the Object.entries method as shown below, let Product = { Title: 'Book', Price: 120, Author: undefined, inStock: true } console.log(Object.entries(Product)); Since it returns … Continue reading How Object.entries work internally in JavaScript
Working with objects in a JavaScript Arrow Function
The JavaScript Arrow function is a shorter way of writing a function expression. Let us say you have a function expression as below, var add = function (num1, num2) { return num1 + num2; } The above function can refactor for a shorter syntax using the arrow function as below, var add = (num1, num2) => num1 + num2; So, as you see, the arrow function provides a convenient and short syntax … Continue reading Working with objects in a JavaScript Arrow Function
Why use new.target inside a function in JavaScript – Simplified
There are four invocation patterns in JavaScript, which means you can call a function in four possible ways.
