Binding, Functions and Control Flow - Reading Assignment

Javascript Programming
#1507
  1. What is an expression?
    • A unit of code that represents a value. This can be numbers, strings, Boolean expressions and more.
  2. What is a binding?
    • Binding is when a program hold a value so it can be used again. These are also called variables. In Javascript, the keywords “let,” “var,” and “const” indicate that a statement is going to define a binding. The equal sign (=) defines the value assigned to a variable and can also be used to change the value.
  3. What is an environment?
    • Collection of bindings and their values that exist at a given time
    • JavaScript contains bindings that are a part of its language standard
  4. What is a function?
    • A piece of program wrapped in a value
    • Can be applied in order to run a wrapped program
    • A set of statements that performs a task or calculates a value
  5. Give an example of a function.
    • An example of a function can be a code written to only accept odd numbers and then prints an odd number to the console.
    • Calculators perform many functions.
  6. What is a side effect?
    • any application state change that is observable outside the called function other than its return value
    • Statements that perform some sort of change
  7. Give an example of a function that produces a side effect and another function that produces a value.
    • An example of a function that produces a side effect is a function that only accepts odd number, and an “if statement” can be applied if there is an even number which outputs “this is not an odd number” to the console.
    • One that produces a value is if the number is odd and is accepted.
  8. What is control flow?
    • Top to bottom execution
    • Order in which statements are executed
  9. What is conditional execution?
    • Branching execution of a program based on situation
    • we want some code to be executed if, and only if, a certain condition holds.
  10. What kind of keyword do you need to use to invoke conditional execution?
    If, else

[quote=“ivan, post:1, topic:3069”]

  • What is an expression? Any fragment of code that produces a value
  • What is a binding? it is a second kind of statement. (keyword). the word let binds a chosen word to a value or string. A binding grabs a value.
  • What is an environment? Collection of bindings and their values at a given time.
  • What is a function? A piece of program wrapped in a value - like how a prompt causes a prompt box to display or execute
  • Give an example of a function.
  • What is a side effect? a result initiated due to a function
  • Give an example of a function that produces a side effect and another function that produces a value. “prompt” causes the prompt box to display when executed
  • What is control flow? when a program has greater than one statement - the flow of which the code is read - like top to bottom - left to right
  • What is conditional execution? like a branching road - code that executes if and only if certain conditions are met - uses the function
  • What kind of keyword do you need to use to invoke conditional execution? “if”

  1. What is an expression?

1- It is a fragment code that produces a value.

  1. What is a binding?

2- A binding “binds” (sorry for the internal accusative) a name to a value, so the name holds a value and it is connected to it.

  1. What is an environment?

3- It is the corpus of existing bindings and values at a given time.

  1. What is a function?

4- It is a piece of a program wrapped in a function.

  1. Give an example of a function.

5- console.log is a function.

  1. What is a side effect?

6- A side effect is an operation that affects or changes what cames after it.

  1. Give an example of a function that produces a side effect and another function that produces a value.

7- prompt(“Enter ID:”);

console.log(45+44);

  1. What is control flow?

8- It is the order in which the individual statement are to be executed or concatenated

  1. What is conditional execution?

9- A conditional execution happens when a program offers two (or more) branches, and the program takes the proper action based on the current situation.

  1. What kind of keyword do you need to use to invoke conditional execution?

10- The conditional, if .

  5. prompt(“Hello”);
  6. Showing a dialog box or writing text to the screen.
  7. console.log(Math.max(2,4)); -> produces a value
    prompt(“Hello”) -> produces a side effect

  1. What is an expression?
    A fragmented code that produces a Value.

  2. What is a binding?
    Creating a new function that will call the original function but with some of the arguments already fixed.

  3. What is an environment?
    The collection of variables and their values that exist at a given time.

  4. What is a function?
    A function is a piece of program wrapped in a value.

  5. Give an example of a function.
    alert(“Good Morning”); In a web environment, the variable “alert” its purpose is to provide box with a message.

  6. What is a side effect?
    A Statement that stands on its own in which amounts to something only if it affects the world. It could display something on the screen that counts as changing the world or change the internal state of said machine in a way it will affect the statements that come after it.

  7. Give an example of a function that produces a side effect and another function that produces a value.
    alert (" Good morning !") ;

var x = 30;
console . log (" the value of x is " , x ) ;
// → the value of x is 30

  1. What is control flow?
    When the statements are executed, predictably, from top to bottom

  2. What is conditional execution?
    where we choose between two different routes based on a Boolean value. Conditional execution is written with the “if” keyword in JavaScript. In the simple case, we just want some code to be executed if, and only if, a certain condition holds.

  3. What kind of keyword do you need to use to invoke conditional execution?
    keyword if.

  1. anything that produces a value is an expression
  2. binding holds a value that can be referred to / called out in a computation/calculation
  3. a collection of values and bindings
  4. function is a subprogram within the program and it’s designed to perform a particular task
  5. alert(“Hi”);
  6. the program could change the internal state of the machine in a way that will affect the statements that come after it. These changes are called side effects.
  7. value = console.log(1+2);
    side effect = prompt(“Enter a new value”)
  8. control flow is direction of the code execution (top to bottom as default)
  9. conditional execution happens when the control flow is depending on a condition to be true or false (or a value to be smaller/greater/equal to a set amount). depending on the answer, the program will execute the rest of the code differently
  10. if and else

  1. What is an expression?
    It is something that is written that creates a value. It is kind of like a sentence an expression can have expressions inside of expressions. It’s a fragment of code that creates a value.
  2. What is a binding?
    It is when you give something a value. Variables and constants are bindings. A constant is a variable for the life of the binding. For example let foxes = wolves, or let ten = ten, would be an example of a binding. However, when naming bindings, they cannot start with a digit.
  3. What is an environment?
    The environment is the culmination of all the current bindings in the program.
  4. What is a function?
    A function is a piece of a program wrapped in a value.
  5. Give an example of a function.
    function countitems(bread,milk,cheese,yogurt) {
    return bread2+milk1.5+cheese4+yogurt1.2
    }
  6. What is a side effect?
    A side effect is a statement that affects future statements.
  7. Give an example of a function that produces a side effect and another function that produces a value.
    A dialogue box or printing to the screen.
    console.log(Math.max(3, 8));
    // → 8
  8. What is control flow?
    It’s how you write the program. It kind of means that you write it like a story from the beginning to the end. This would be in terms of the actions that you are asking the program to perform.
  9. What is conditional execution?
    Basically, if something happens that you want to have the program act on, yet it will not act on something unless the thing you want to happen does. Most often this would start with an “if” statement. An example would be allowing a string or a numeric value any only allowing one of these to drive how the program reacts.
  10. What kind of keyword do you need to use to invoke conditional execution?
    “if” and/or “else,” depending on what you are trying to do with conditional execution.

  3. An environment is the collection of bindings and values that exist at a given time.
  4. A function is a piece of program wrapped in a value. Those are then applied to run the wrapped program.
  5. prompt(Enter Passcode);
  6. A side effect can showing a dialog box or writing text or may be an unintentional change to the other statements in the program.
  7. Pulling up a dialog box is a side effect, and using the console as a calculator would be a function that produces a value.
  8. The control flow is how the statements are executed as if they were a story from top to bottom.
  9. The conditional execution is the branching (or straight) possible paths the code can execute.
  10. To invoke conditional execution you use the keywords: “if” and “else”.

  1. What is an expression?
    A fragment of code, every value that os written is an expression, for example: 3; !true;

  2. What is a binding?
    Also know as “let” and “var” in the javascript.
    Its means that you define a sentence thrue binding,
    its fallowed by the name of the binding and if i want, i can give it a value, by an = operator and expression.

  3. What is an environment?
    The collection of bindings and their values that exist at a given time is called
    the environment.

Its means when you start a program, it always contains bindings that ar part of the language standard.

  1. What is a function?
    A function is a piece of program wrapped in a value. Such values can be applied in order to run the wrapped program. like the “prompt” function

  2. Give an example of a function.
    Alert, prompt.

  3. What is a side effect?
    Showing a dialog box or writing text ti the screen is a side effect.

  4. Give an example of a function that produces a side effect and another function that produces a value
    prompt (“hello”)
    and
    console.log(Math.max (10, 30))
    // 10

  5. What is control flow?
    When your program contains more than one statement, from top to bottom.

  6. What is conditional execution?
    Not all programs are straight roads. We may, for example, want to create
    a branching road, where the program takes the proper branch based on the
    situation at hand. This is called conditional execution.
