I am new to javascript language. The format is given on web, I tried but it giving the undefined result.
var name = {
a : 'a',
b:'b',c:'c'
};
console.log(name.a);// undefined
console.log(name);// '[object object]'
The output is undefined ? why
You have a conflict with window.name. If you use name in a global context, the value is stringified. The solution is to use the variable only within a function context instead, or anywhere outside of global scope:
var f = function(){
var name = {
a : "a",
b : "b",
c : "c"
};
console.log(name.a);
console.log(name);
}
f();
name is a reserved predefined word in javascript
Quote:
you'd better avoid the following identifiers as names of JavaScript variables. These are predefined names of implementation-dependent JavaScript objects, methods, or properties (and, arguably, some should have been reserved words):
