Introduction to JavaScript (staging)
Var 1/3
Var:
In the very first chapter of the section we learn that there are three ways to declare a variable:
let
const
var
The var
is used as an alternative to the let
keyword. We can replace let
with the var
or vice-versa but there are some exceptions.
Tarea
Declare a variable with the identifier name customers
and assign the value 1000
by using the var
keyword. Show the value on the console.
Var has No Block Scope
Variables have either local-scope or global-scope. The code which is enclosed inside the {}
is called a block of code. Variables declared with var
are accessible outside the block as well, for example.
if (10 > 5){ var test = true; } console.log(test);
But if we declare the test
variable with the let
keyword we get an error.
if (10 > 5){ let test = true; } console.log(test);
As you can see that the test
variable was accessible outside the if
statement when declared with the var
keyword, but it was not accessible when declared with the let
keyword.
Note: Scoping is an advanced topic therefore this part has no exercise because we will learn more about the scope in the upcoming chapters.
