Anonymous Functions
Anonymous, as the name suggests, allows creating a function without any names identifier. It can be used as an argument to other functions. This is how JavaScript anonymous functions can be used −
var myfunc = function() { alert(‘This is anonymous'); }
Another example can be the following −
setTimeout(function() { alert('Demo'); }, 3000);
Inline Functions
An inline function is a javascript function, which is assigned to a variable created at runtime. You can difference Inline Functions easily with Anonymous since an inline function is assigned to a variable and can be easily reused.
This is how JavaScript inline functions can be used −
var myfunc = function() { alert ('inline') }; $('a').click(myfunc);
