Eupheus Web Developer Interview Questions, Process, and Tips

Hoisting is a JavaScript mechanism where variables and function declarations are moved to the top of their scope.

• Variables declared with var are hoisted to the top of their scope

• Function declarations are also hoisted to the top of their scope

• Function expressions are not hoisted

• Hoisting can lead to unexpected behavior and bugs

• Example: console.log(x); var x = 5; // Output: undefined

Callback hell is a situation where multiple nested callbacks make the code difficult to read and maintain.

• It occurs when callbacks are nested within other callbacks.

• It can lead to code that is difficult to read and maintain.

• It can be avoided by using promises or async/await.

• Example: fs.readFile('file.txt', function(err, data) { fs.writeFile('file2.txt', data, function(err) { console.log('File written!'); }); });

let, var, and const are JavaScript keywords used for declaring variables with different scopes and mutability.

• var is function-scoped and can be redeclared and reassigned

• let is block-scoped and can be reassigned but not redeclared

• const is block-scoped and cannot be reassigned or redeclared

• Use const for values that won't change, let for values that will, and var for legacy code or global variables

The difference between == and === is that == compares values while === compares both values and types.

• The == operator performs type coercion before comparing values.

• The === operator does not perform type coercion and compares both values and types.

• Using === is generally considered safer and more reliable.

• Example: 5 == '5' returns true, but 5 === '5' returns false.

Async, await, and promises are JavaScript features used for handling asynchronous operations.

• Promises are objects that represent the eventual completion or failure of an asynchronous operation.

• Async/await is a syntax for writing asynchronous code that looks like synchronous code.

• Async functions always return a promise.

• Await can only be used inside an async function and it waits for the promise to resolve or reject befo...read more

The $ sign in JQuery is a shorthand for the JQuery function.

• The $ sign is used to select elements in JQuery.

• It can also be used to create new elements.

• It is a shorthand for the JQuery function.

• Example: $('p') selects all the paragraphs on a page.
