JavaScript Basics

1. Introduction to JavaScript: JavaScript is a scripting language used to add interactivity to web

pages. It can manipulate the DOM, handle events, and perform complex logic.

Example:

```javascript

console.log('Hello, World!');

```

2. Variables: JavaScript uses var, let, and const to declare variables. let and const are block-scoped,

while var is function-scoped.

Example:

```javascript

let age = 25;

const name = 'John';

var city = 'New York';

```

3. Data Types: JavaScript supports primitive types like number, string, boolean, undefined, and null.

Complex types include arrays and objects.

Example:

```javascript

let numbers = [1, 2, 3];

let person = { name: 'Alice', age: 30 };

```

4. Functions: Functions can be written as function declarations or arrow functions.

Example:

```javascript

function greet(name) {

return 'Hello, ' + name;


}

const greetArrow = (name) => `Hello, ${name}`;

```

5. Event Handling: Events like clicks, key presses, and form submissions can be handled using

event listeners.

Example:

```javascript

document.getElementById('myButton').addEventListener('click', function() {

alert('Button clicked!');

});

```

6. DOM Manipulation: JavaScript allows you to dynamically change HTML elements on a web page.

Example:

```javascript

document.getElementById('demo').innerHTML = 'Changed Text!';

```
