JavaScript - Everything that you need to know as a beginner

Where to put javascript can be debatable but we will not take this in a long and boring way. Everything has a meaning, learn where you can put js code in head and in what situation you will change it to bottom of body

One of the most annoying thing that javascript does is the annoying pop ups. Although it is a great way to get output result but we have some more options to explore around

Finally it's time to get into javascript and language basics. Every programming language has some rules and syntax that we will understand in this movie

Comments are a great way to make sure that our code is readable to us and others as well. But let's be honest, we don't use much of the comments for that. One way of using the comments is to use it for unit testing.

Variables are something where you will be storing a lot of types of data. Declaring a variable is easy and little sloppy in javascript. We will learn the best practice to declare a variable and use them in our code.

Once we have a variable the obvious next step is to do some calculation and manipulation with them. Let's explore what are the different types of calculation that we can do in javascript.

there are a variety of types of data and computer treats them all very differently. For example 2 is different from 2.0. Let's explore the datatypes in detail in javascript.

One the major role of a code is to test out various condition and act according to them. Writing a straight forward code is not an intelligent coding. We will learn to write conditional code in this movie

When we need to test out multiple condition, using dozens of nested if and else is not a right choice. Specially when we have better options available with us. Switch and case allow us to test for multiple conditions and code will be still much more readable as compared to nested if and else

Looping is the most fundamental things of all programming. On top of that FOR is the most common loop that you will find in all programming language. Lets explore the syntax of this loop as well as for in loop

Another cousin of FOR loop is the while and DO While loop. Although they serve almost the same purpose and keep in mind that "Almost". Watch this movie closely to understand the difference between the two.

having a loop in program can sometime be painful. Some after case will arise where you want to terminate the loop or jump over one execution of the loop. This movie is designed to solve the same problem.

Functions is block of code that is only executed when it is called. We can wrap up our code chunk and can call it as many times as we wish and without writing it again and again.

variable becomes a little tricky after the introduction of functions. Variables declared inside the functions are treated little differently as compared to variables declared outside the function.

Object is another complex data type used in the javascript and it would not be wrong to say that it is the most powerful one.

One of the most fundamental role of javascript is to get embedded with variety of events like mouse movements, mouse clicking, keyboard events and all. We will learn to bind the javascript code with such events in this movie.

Exceptions in code will surly happen and great news is that we can handle those exceptions and can treat them according to us. So that rest of the code don't get freeze up.

There are various built in methods for strings in the javascript. Lets explore what are the methods available for the strings.

Javascript is one of the sloppy language but it can be very strict too. Although most programmers don't like to use it in strict mode, still you should have an idea about how to make things strict when in need.

Regular expression is the most fundamental method to search for a pattern in any given text. This is going to be an introduction on How to use your RegEx skills in javascript.

It might look like that you know a lot about functions from last movie but functions can go in very depth. Lets start form the basic declaration of the function.

Time to declare our function. Functions can be declared in variety of ways and surprisingly all of them are correct but in different situation.

Functions can only be executed when they are called. Feel free to call them as many times as you need them. Functions are a great way to write modular code.

Using functions as an object can be little tricky for the new users but it will give you a lot of freedom and liberty.

creating an object using function is an easy task in javascript but gives us a lot of power and freedom to move along. This also is very helpful for moving further in advance level in javascript

All JavaScript objects inherit the properties and methods from their prototype.

Objects created using an object literal, or with new Object(), inherit from a prototype called Object.prototype.

Objects created with new Date() inherit the Date.prototype.

Multiplying arguments value looks easy but we will learn it by doing a classic mistake in our code. Mistakes always helps us to learn more from our code.

DOM or Document Object Model is the base of any web page. Understand the DOM will help you to understand, create and edit the existing web page.

once the DOM is clear, next thing that you want to learn to access the particular element of the page. This will give you more power while writing the javascript codes.

Creating new nodes means, creating new elements in the page and filling the content in those pages. Let's learn how we can write in those elements

Grabbing, validating and processing forms is the essential part of javascript code. In this movie we will learn to perform the actions on the form.

changing the style of the page is another important aspect of the javascript. Moving the images or changing the paragraph alignment are some common examples that you can do with javascript.

Binding javascript codes on some event is the actual task. events are already happening in the page, all we need to do is to attach those events with our codes.

writing just our code is not going to be enough, we need to have knowledge on where to find other resources. These resources are the hard work mixed with years of experience, given to you to use them.

Ajax works on the server and in order to work with server we need to install one. Let's learn to install the server and we will choose the cross platform server for this.

In order to understand the right way to do things we need to first understand the things and should have a knowledge about the wrong ways of things.

This video will show you the right way to do Asynchronous request using AJAX. Although this is not a full primer of Ajax but good enough to get you started.

Main role of ajax is to load XML documents from the web server and in oder to do so, we have all built in methods given to us. This saves a lot of time and let's explore the video for the same.

Let's learn how we can convert the existing code into functions and can use them for our purpose. Further we will explore the methods to bind the functions with the events.

it was great to see you in the course. See you out there in the comment section
