let js code example

Example 1: javascript var let

// var has function scope.
// let has block scope.

function func(){
  if(true){
    var A = 1;
    let B = 2;
  }
  A++; // 2 --> ok, inside function scope
  B++; // B is not defined --> not ok, outside of block scope
  return A + B; // NaN --> B is not defined
}

Example 2: var vs let js

let: //only available inside the scope it's declared, like in "for" loop, 
var: //accessed outside the loop "for"

Example 3: difference between var and let

var is function scoped and let is block scoped. Let's say you have:
function understanding_var() {
	if (1 == 1) {
    	var x = 5;
        console.log('the value of x inside the if statement is ' + x);
    }
    console.log(x);
} 
//output: the value of x inside the if statement is 5
		  5

function understanding_let() {
	if (1 == 1) {
    	let x = 5;
        console.log('the value of x inside the if statement is ' + x);
    }
    console.log(x);
} 
//output: the value of x inside the if statement is 5
		  Uncaught ReferenceError: x is not defined
          
var is defined throughout the entire function, even if it's inside the if 
statement, but the scope of let is always within the curly braces, not outside
it, even if the conditional statement is inside the function.

Example 4: let in javascript

The let statement declares a block scope local variable, optionally initializing it to a value.

let x = 1;

if (x === 1) {
  let x = 2;

  console.log(x);
  // expected output: 2
}

console.log(x);
// expected output: 1

Example 5: let javascript

The let statement declares a block-scoped local variable, 
  optionally initializing it to a value.
let x=1;

Example 6: vars with let in it javascript

let /*Var name*/ = /*what is equals*/
