javascript classes es8 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.
