{} is object literal syntax.
let say
const circle = {};
Above circle is returning an object.
Object in Javascript is essentially collection of key-value pair.
const circle = {
radius: 1,
location: {
x: 1,
y: 1
},
draw: function() {
console.log('draw');
}
};
This circle object have 3 members: radius, location and draw
If a member is
- function then it refers as
method(), sodrawis method. - Other members are called as
properties.
Now, you can access the member using the . notation like:
circle.draw() and it will output, draw in console.
So, this is most commonly used method of defining an object.
You, can also define an object using factories and constructors.
How factories and constructors works and what is the other way of accessing the object will be explained in next blog.
