# JavaScript Functions
Functions

https://quickref.me/javascript 4/24
10/01/2025, 00:02 JavaScript Cheat Sheet & Quick Reference

// Defining the function:


function sum(num1, num2) {
return num1 + num2;
}

// Calling the function:


sum(3 6); // 9

Anonymous Functions

// Named function
function rocketToMars() {
return 'BOOM!';
}

// Anonymous function
const rocketToMars = function() {
return 'BOOM!';
}

Arrow Functions (ES6)

With two arguments

const sum = (param1, param2) => {


return param1 + param2;
};
console.log(sum(2,5)); // => 7

With no arguments

const printHello = () => {


console.log('hello');
};
printHello(); // => hello

With a single argument

const checkWeight = weight => {


console.log(`Weight : ${weight}`);
};
checkWeight(25); // => Weight : 25

Concise arrow functions

const multiply = (a, b) => a * b;


// => 60
console.log(multiply(2, 30));

Arrow function available starting ES2015

return Keyword

// With return
function sum(num1, num2) {
return num1 + num2;
}

// The function doesn't output the sum


function sum(num1, num2) {
num1 + num2;
}

Calling Functions

https://quickref.me/javascript 5/24
10/01/2025, 00:02 JavaScript Cheat Sheet & Quick Reference

// Defining the function


function sum(num1, num2) {
return num1 + num2;
}

// Calling the function


sum(2, 4); // 6

Function Expressions

const dog = function() {


return 'Woof!';
}

Function Parameters

// The parameter is name


function sayHello(name) {
return `Hello, ${name}!`;
}

Function Declaration

function add(num1, num2) {


return num1 + num2;
}

# JavaScript Scope
Scope

function myFunction() {

var pizzaName = "Margarita";


// Code here can use pizzaName

// Code here can't use pizzaName

Block Scoped Variables

const isLoggedIn = true;

if (isLoggedIn == true) {
const statusMessage = 'Logged in.';
}

// Uncaught ReferenceError...
console.log(statusMessage);

Global Variables

// Variable declared globally


const color = 'blue';

https://quickref.me/javascript 6/24
10/01/2025, 00:02 JavaScript Cheat Sheet & Quick Reference
function printColor() {
console.log(color);
}

printColor(); // => blue

let vs var

for (let i = 0; i < 3; i++) {


// This is the Max Scope for 'let'
// i accessible ✔️
}
// i not accessible ❌

for (var i = 0; i < 3; i++) {


// i accessible ✔️
}
// i accessible ✔️

var is scoped to the nearest function block, and let is scoped to the nearest enclosing block.

Loops with closures

// Prints 3 thrice, not what we meant.


for (var i = 0; i < 3; i++) {
setTimeout(_ => console.log(i), 10);
}

// Prints 0, 1 and 2, as expected.


for (let j = 0; j < 3; j++) {
setTimeout(_ => console.log(j), 10);
}

The variable has its own copy using let, and the variable has shared copy using var.

# JavaScript Arrays
Arrays

const fruits = ["apple", "orange", "banana"];

// Different data types


const data = [1, 'chicken', false];

Property .length

const numbers = [1, 2, 3, 4];

numbers.length // 4

Index

// Accessing an array element


const myArray = [100, 200, 300];

https://quickref.me/javascript 7/24
10/01/2025, 00:02 JavaScript Cheat Sheet & Quick Reference
console.log(myArray[0]); // 100

Mutable chart

add remove start end

push ✔ ✔

pop ✔ ✔

unshift ✔ ✔

shift ✔ ✔

Method .push()

// Adding a single element:


const cart = ['apple', 'orange'];
cart.push('pear');

// Adding multiple elements:


const numbers = [1, 2];
numbers.push(3, 4, 5);

Add items to the end and returns the new array length.

Method .pop()

const fruits = ["apple", "orange", "banana"];

const fruit = fruits.pop(); // 'banana'


console.log(fruits); // ["apple", "orange"]

Remove an item from the end and returns the removed item.

Method .shift()

let cats = ['Bob', 'Willy', 'Mini'];

cats.shift(); // ['Willy', 'Mini']

Remove an item from the beginning and returns the removed item.

Method .unshift()

let cats = ['Bob'];

// => ['Willy', 'Bob']


cats.unshift('Willy');

// => ['Puff', 'George', 'Willy', 'Bob']


cats.unshift('Puff', 'George');

Add items to the beginning and returns the new array length.

Method .concat()

const numbers = [3, 2, 1]


const newFirstNumber = 4

// => [ 4, 3, 2, 1 ]
[newFirstNumber].concat(numbers)

https://quickref.me/javascript 8/24
10/01/2025, 00:02 JavaScript Cheat Sheet & Quick Reference
// => [ 3, 2, 1, 4 ]
numbers.concat(newFirstNumber)

if you want to avoid mutating your original array you can use concat

for (let j = 0; j < 3; j += 1) {
console.log(`${i}-${j}`);
}
}

for...in loop

const fruits = ["apple", "orange", "banana"];

for (let index in fruits) {


console.log(index);
}
// => 0
// => 1
// => 2

for...of loop

const fruits = ["apple", "orange", "banana"];

for (let fruit of fruits) {


console.log(fruit);
}
// => apple
// => orange
// => banana

# JavaScript Iterators
Functions Assigned to Variables

let plusFive = (number) => {


return number + 5;
};
// f is assigned the value of plusFive
let f = plusFive;

plusFive(3); // 8
// Since f has a function value, it can be invoked.
f(9); // 14

let printMsg = (evenFunc, num) => {
const isNumEven = evenFunc(num);
console.log(`${num} is an even number: ${isNumEven}.`)
}

// Pass in isEven as the callback function


printMsg(isEven, 4);
// => The number 4 is an even number: True.

Array Method .reduce()

const numbers = [1, 2, 3, 4];

const sum = numbers.reduce((accumulator, curVal) => {


return accumulator + curVal;
});

console.log(sum); // 10

# JavaScript Promises
Promise states

if (res) {
resolve('Resolved!');

promise.then((res) => console.log(res), (err) => console.error(err));

Executor function

const promise = new Promise(executorFn);

setTimeout()

const loginAlert = () =>{


console.log('Login');
};

setTimeout(loginAlert, 6000);

.then() method

});

Promise.all([pro1, pro2, pro3]).then(function(values) {


console.log(values);
});
// expected => Array [5, 44, "foo"]

Async Await Promises

function helloWorld() {
return new Promise(resolve => {
setTimeout(() => {
resolve('Hello World!');
}, 2000);
});
}

async function msg() {


const msg = await helloWorld();
console.log('Message:', msg);
}

msg(); // Message: Hello World! <-- after 2 seconds

Error Handling

let json = '{ "age": 30 }'; // incomplete data

try {
let user = JSON.parse(json); // <-- no errors
console.log( user.name ); // no name!
} catch (e) {
console.error( "Invalid JSON data!" );
}

Aysnc await operator

function helloWorld() {
return new Promise(resolve => {
setTimeout(() => {
resolve('Hello World!');
}, 2000);
