JavaScript Programming Fundamentals

Overview

This section of the course will introduce you to programming concepts in JavaScript. Many of these concepts will apply not only to JavaScript, but to many other languages as well. Things like loops, conditionals, and variables can be found in most programming lanuages.

Here is a summary of some of the topics in this lecture:

(1) Commenting Your Code

In this lecture, we will discuss why commenting your code is a good idea, and different ways you can comment it.

(2) Object Oriented Programming

JavaScript is an object oriented programming language. In this lecture we will discuss just what that is, and how it works

(3) Your First Scripts

Finally! Some real programming! With this lecture will will actually write a script, as opposed to just talking about it. We will discuss dot syntax, objects and methods, and events.

(4) Variables

Variables are not only useful, but very necessary. We will discuss what variables are, and how you can use them effectively.

(5) Strings

Text strings are yet another thing that can end up being very useful in JavaScript. This lecture will talk about strings and the different ways to manipulate them.

(6) Operators and Assignments

In this lecture we will discuss some of the operators used in JavaScript, as well as what an assignment is.

(7) Interactivity

Conditionals are what make JavaScript (and any other programming language) very powerful and interactive. We will discuss the common if/then/else statements that make up conditionals.

(8) Re-using Code - Functions

Functions are the key to making your scripts re-usable. Besides being very useful, they can save you a lot of typing.

(9) Arrays

Now we're getting into the heavy stuff. Arrays are sometimes difficult to comprehend, but this lecture will have you writing your own one and two dimensional arrays like a pro.
