  • What is the difference between a function expression vs declaration in JavaScript?

     

     
     

    This question already has an answer here:

    What is the difference between the following lines of code?

    //Function declaration
    function foo() { return 5; }
    
    //Anonymous function expression
    var foo = function() { return 5; }
    
    //Named function expression
    var foo = function foo() { return 5; }
    

      

    • What is a named/anonymous function expression?
    • What is a declared function?
    • How do browsers deal with these constructs differently?

    They're actually really similar. How you call them is exactly the same, but the difference lies in how the browser loads them into the execution context.

    function declarations loads before any code is executed.

    While function expressions loads only when the interpreter reaches that line of code.

    So if you try to call a function expression before it's loaded, you'll get an error

    But if you call a function declaration, it'll always work. Because no code can be called until all declarations are loaded.

    ex. Function Expression

    alert(foo()); // ERROR! foo wasn't loaded yet
    var foo = function() { return 5; } 
    

      

    ex. Function Declaration

    alert(foo()); // Alerts 5. Declarations are loaded before any code can run.
    function foo() { return 5; } 
    

      

    As for the second part of your questions.

    var foo = function foo() { return 5; }
    

      

     is really the same as the other two. It's just that this line of code used to cause an error in safari, though it no longer does.
