Lynda - JavaScript : Functions torrent

What are JavaScript functions? They're the "subprograms" that power your code. You truly master the use of JavaScript once you learn how to work with functions. In this course, author Ray Villalobos explains how functions work, how they're declared, and how they're invoked, and then issues a challenge exercise that allows you to test your knowledge. In the third and final chapter, he'll show you how to set up anonymous closures and create JavaScript modules that make your code easier to reuse.

Topics include:
What are functions?
Using functions as objects
Understanding call-and-apply invocation
Using the arguments parameter
Returning values
Understanding hosting and variable scope
Chaining module method calls
