✔️ How to write JavaScript in HTML?

We need to include <script> </script> in the <body> of the HTML element.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
    <head>
        <title>This is the HTML Page</title>
    </head>

    <body>
        <p>Let's try writing JavaScript in HTML!</p>
        <p id='this'>Try This!</p>

        <script>
            alert('Hello World');
            document.write('I love WebLaunch');
            document.getElementById('this').innerHTML='Change to This!';
            
        </script>

    <body>
        <p>This is line 1</p>

innerHTML has to be tagged along with the element that you want to change using a query selector i.e. getElementById()

Basics of JavaScript

🚩

Programming is all about processing the data

🔓  Variables

( Give a name to your data! )

🚩Basics of JavaScript 
>
🚩Basics of JavaScript  🔓 Variables
var surname = 'Cheong';
let name = 'Yien';
let birthDate = 10;

console.log(surname);
console.log(name);
console.log(birthDate);

To print to variables that you have keyed in to the console you can use console.log() 

For Example:

console.log(surname);
String name = 'Jeffrey';

This method is also called static typing and is not the best practise as the type of variable is set and cannot be changed in the future.

 

  Thus, let or var is more widely use in declaring a variable as we can change the type of value stored in the variable. This is also called dynamic typing.

What about using this?

🔓 Constant

( You can't change me! )

🚩Basics of JavaScript  🔓 Constant
>

To fix the value of a variable or disable change

const birthMonth = 10;
console.log(birthMonth);
🚩Basics of JavaScript  🔓 Constant

Data types

( Different type of data! )

🔓 Primitive Types

🚩Basics of JavaScript  🔓 Primitive Types
>

  • String

  • Number

  • Boolean

  • Undefined

  • Null

let name = "My Name";
let age = 18;
let choice = true;
let lastName = undefined;
let firstName = null;

Check the type of the data using typeof in the console:

  • String

  • Number

  • Boolean

  • Undefined

  • Null

let colours = [];
let colours = ['red','orange','yellow','green','violet'];
console.log(colours);

🔑 If and Else (if....else)

Create a simple if and else statement that checks the score.

If the score is more than or equal 80, let's print 'Congratulations!' . Else, print 'It's ok, try harder next round.'

  ❗  Initialise the score first!
let score = 40;
if (score >= 80){
    console.log("Congratulations!!!");
}
else

Print out the choice that you / the user input using a switch case.

I have strawberries, mango, durian. I want the application to print out "I Love Strawberries!" if I choose A , and mango if i choose B, vice versa.

🔓 Object

Has characteristics and behaviour

A person has : 

let name = 'Cheong';
let age = 18;
let dob = '01/01/2002';

✔️ Create an Object

let person = {
    name: 'Cheong',
    age: 18,
    dob: '01/01/2002'
};
>
🚩Control Flow  🔓 Object

✔️  To print properties and values of an object

✔️ To print the properties of an object

for (let properties in person ){
    console.log(properties); 
}
for (let properties in person ){
    console.log(properties,person[properties]);
}
🚩Control Flow  🔓 Object
🚩Control Flow

🔓 Array ( Continue )

Print the items in the array using for loop:

const colours = ['red','orange','yellow','green','blue','indigo','purple'];
for (let count = 0; count < colours.length; count ++){
    console.log(colours[count]);
}

🔓 Function

Me doing lazy work hehe 🤭

A block of code designed to perform a particular task.

    //code to be executed
}
function greet (name){
    alert("Hi, " + name);
}
🚩Control Flow  🔓 Function

❗  Document Object Model

( The reason why we learn JavaScript )

Select the "Object" in the document

>

Types of operation

CRUD:

  1. Create
  2. Read
  3. Update
  4. Delete

Read ( or get ) the HTML Element

>

Ways we can do

document.getElementById

document.getElementsByTagName

document.getElementsByClassName

>

Ways we can do (Better!)

🌟document.querySelector🌟

Create new HTML Element!

document.createElement

Update HTML Element!

<element>.style.width = "500px";

Delete HTML Element!

document.removeChild
