Functions

Declare a function
function myFunc(p1, p2) {
    statements;
 ­ ­ ­ return p1 + p2;
}
Use a function
x = myFunc(1, 5);
Function variable
var f = functi­on(p1, p2) {
    statements;
    return p1 + p2;
};
Use function varialbe
x = f(1, 5);

Condit­ionals

if
if (x > y) {
    statements;
}
if..else
if (x > y) {
    statements;
} else {
 ­ ­ ­ ­sta­tem­ents;
}
if..else if
if (x > y) {
    statements;
} else if (x > z) {
    statements;
} else {
 ­ ­ ­ ­sta­tem­ents;
}
switch..case
switch(x) {
    case 1:
        statements;
        break;
    case 2:
        statements;
        break;
    default:
        statements;
}

Loops

while
var x = 0;
while (x < y) {
    statements;
    ++x;
}
for
for (var x = 0; x < y; ++x) {
    statements;
}
continue
Stop current iteration, continue with next one
break
Stop loop immedi­ately
for/in
var x = [ "­abc­", "­efg­", "­hij­" ];
for (i in x) {
    statements; // i = 0,1,2...
}
for/of
var x = [ "­abc­", "­efg­", "­hij­" ];
for (i of x) {
    statements; // i = "abc","efg",..
}

Arrays

var a = [8, "­hi", 6]
Declare and assign
var a = []
Declare empty array
a[0]
Extract the first element
a[0] = "­xx"
Set the first element
a.length
Length of array
a.push(17)
Add element to array
a.pop()
Remove the last element
a.splice(
 s, r,
 e1, e2..)
From index s, remove r elements, then add e1, e2...
a.forE­ach(f)
Run function f(e) for each element in array

Objects

Literal object
var x = {
  name: "cool",
  size: 10,
  sayHi = function() {
    console.log(this.name);
  }
}
Constr­uctor
function MyObj(nm) {
  this.name = nm;
  this.size = 10;
  this.sayHi = function() {
    console.log(this.name);
  }
}
Create new object
var x = new MyObj(­"­coo­l");
Use object
console.log(x.size);
x.sayHi();
