    JavaScript reference JavaScript
    This part of the JavaScript section on MDN serves as a repository of facts about the JavaScript language. Read more about this reference.
    About this reference JavaScript
    The JavaScript reference serves as a repository of facts about the JavaScript language. The entire language is described here in detail. As you write JavaScript code, you'll refer to these pages often (thus the title "JavaScript reference"). If you're learning JavaScript, or need help understanding some of its capabilities or features, check out the JavaScript guide.
    Deprecated and obsolete features Deprecated, JavaScript, Obsolete
    This page lists features of JavaScript that are deprecated (that is, still available but planned for removal) and obsolete (that is, no longer usable).
    Expressions and operators JavaScript, Operators
    This chapter documents all the JavaScript language operators, expressions and keywords.
    Arithmetic operators JavaScript, Operator
    Arithmetic operators take numerical values (either literals or variables) as their operands and return a single numerical value. The standard arithmetic operators are addition (+), subtraction (-), multiplication (*), and division (/).
    Array comprehensions ECMAScript6, JavaScript, Operator
    The array comprehension syntax is a JavaScript expression which allows you to quickly assemble a new array based on an existing one. Comprehensions exist in many programming languages and the upcoming ECMAScript 6 standard defines array comprehensions for JavaScript.
    Assignment operators JavaScript, Operator
    An assignment operator assigns a value to its left operand based on the value of its right operand.
    Bitwise operators JavaScript, Operator
    Bitwise operators treat their operands as a sequence of 32 bits (zeros and ones), rather than as decimal, hexadecimal, or octal numbers. For example, the decimal number nine has a binary representation of 1001. Bitwise operators perform their operations on such binary representations, but they return standard JavaScript numerical values.
    Comma operator JavaScript, Operator
    The comma operator evaluates each of its operands (from left to right) and returns the value of the last operand.
    Comparison operators JavaScript, Operator
    JavaScript has both strict and type–converting comparisons. A strict comparison (e.g., ===) is only true if the operands are of the same type. The more commonly used abstract comparison (e.g. ==) converts the operands to the same Type before making the comparison. For relational abstract comparisons (e.g., <=), the operands are first converted to primitives, then to the same type, before comparison.
    Conditional (ternary) Operator JavaScript, Operator
    The conditional (ternary) operator is the only JavaScript operator that takes three operands. This operator is frequently used as a shortcut for the if statement.

    The grouping operator ( ) controls the precedence of evaluation in expressions.
    Logical Operators JavaScript, Operator
    Logical operators are typically used with Boolean (logical) values. When they are, they return a Boolean value. However, the && and || operators actually return the value of one of the specified operands, so if these operators are used with non-Boolean values, they may return a non-Boolean value.
    Operator precedence Operator, operator details, operator precedence
    Operator precedence determines the order in which operators are evaluated. Operators with higher precedence are evaluated first.
    Property Accessors JavaScript, Operator
    Property accessors provide access to an object's properties by using the dot notation or the bracket notation.
    Spread operator Experimental, JavaScript, Operator

    typeof JavaScript, Operator, Unary
    The typeof operator returns a string indicating the type of the unevaluated operand.
    void operator JavaScript, Operator, Unary
    The void operator evaluates the given expression and then returns undefined.
    yield ECMAScript6, Experimental, Expérimental, Generators, Iterators, JavaScript, JavaScript Reference, NeedsExample, Operator
    The yield keyword is used to pause and resume a generator function.
    Functions and function scope Function, Guide, NeedsHelp, function scope
    Generally speaking, a function is a "subprogram" that can be called by code external (or internal in the case of recursion) to the function. Like the program itself, a function is composed of a sequence of statements called the function body. Values can be passed to a function, and the function can return a value.

    Strict mode ECMAScript5, JavaScript 1.8.5, Strict Mode
    ECMAScript 5's strict mode is a way to opt in to a restricted variant of JavaScript. Strict mode isn't just a subset: it intentionally has different semantics from normal code. Browsers not supporting strict mode will run strict mode code with different behavior from browsers that do, so don't rely on strict mode without feature-testing for support for the relevant aspects of strict mode. Strict mode code and non-strict mode code can coexist, so scripts can opt into strict mode incrementally.
    Transitioning to strict mode Advanced, Guide, JavaScript
    ECMAScript 5 introduced strict mode which is now implemented in all major browsers (including IE10). While making web browsers interpret code as strict is easy (just add "use strict"; at the top of your source code), transitioning an existing code base to strict mode requires a bit more work.

    Template strings are string literals allowing embedded expressions. You can use multi-line strings and string interpolation features with them.
    JavaScript shells Extensions, JavaScript, Tools
    A JavaScript shell allows you to quickly test snippets of JavaScript code without having to reload a web page. They are extremely useful for developing and debugging code.
    JavaScript technologies overview Beginner, DOM, JavaScript
    While HTML is used to define the structure and content of a web page and CSS encodes the style of how the formatted content should be graphically displayed, JavaScript is used to add interactivity to a web page or create rich web applications.
    JavaScript typed arrays Guide, JavaScript
    As web applications become more and more powerful, adding features such as audio and video manipulation, access to raw data using WebSockets, and so forth, it has become clear that there are times when it would be helpful for JavaScript code to be able to quickly and easily manipulate raw binary data. In the past, this had to be simulated by treating the raw data as a string and using the charCodeAt() method to read the bytes from the data buffer.
    Memory Management JavaScript
    Low-level languages, like C, have low-level memory management primitives like malloc() and free(). On the other hand, JavaScript values are allocated when things (objects, strings, etc.) are created and "automatically" free'd when they are not used anymore. The latter process is called garbage collection. This "automatically" is a source of confusion and gives JavaScript (and high-level languages) developers the impression they can decide not to care about memory management. This is a mistake.

    Old Proxy API API, Guide, JavaScript, Non Standard, SpiderMonkey, junk
    Proxies are objects for which the programmer has to define the semantics in JavaScript. The default object semantics are implemented in the JavaScript engine, often written in lower-level languages like C++. Proxies let the programmer define most of the behavior of an object in JavaScript. They are said to provide a meta-programming API.
