how to access a class from within a function in that class in javascript code example
Example 1: javascript class
// Improved formatting of Spotted Tailed Quoll's answer
class Person {
constructor(name, age) {
this.name = name;
this.age = age;
}
introduction() {
return `My name is ${name} and I am ${age} years old!`;
}
}
let john = new Person("John Smith", 18);
console.log(john.introduction());
Example 2: javascript classes
//use classes by initiating one like so:
class MyClass {
constructor(FirstProperty, SecondProperty, etcetera) {
//The constructor function is called with the new class
//instance's parameters, so this will be called like so:
//var classExample = new MyClass("FirstProperty's Value", ...)
this.firstProperty = FirstProperty;
this.secondProperty = SecondProperty;
}
//creat methods just like functions:
method(Parameters) {
//Code Here
}
//getters are properties that are calculated when called, versus fixed
//variables, but still have no parenthesis when used
get getBothValues()
{
return [firstProperty, secondProperty];
}
}
//Note: this is all syntax sugar reducing the boilerplate versus a
// function-defined object.
