 }
 
for/of
 
var x = [ "­abc­", "­efg­", "­hij­" ];

e1, e2...
 
a.forE­ach(f)
Run function f(e) for each element in array

Objects

Literal object
 
var x = {

    console.log(this.name);
  }
}
Constr­uctor
 
function MyObj(nm) {
  this.name = nm;
  this.size = 10;
  this.sayHi = function() {
    console.log(this.name);
