Definition of Function:
✓ Some activity or set of instructions with name called function.
✓ In JavaScript, a function is a reusable block of code designed to perform a specific task. Functions are executed when they are "invoked" or called.
1. Function Declaration:
✓ Most common way to define a function using the function keyword.
Example:
Parameters: name is a placeholder for the value you pass into the function.
Arguments: "Deva" is the actual value (argument) passed during the call.
Return Statement: The return keyword stops function execution and sends a value back to the caller.
Function Expression:
A function can also be defined inside an expression and assigned to a variable.
Key Concepts:
Reusability: You can call the same function multiple times with different arguments to get different results.
Scope: Variables defined inside a function are "local" and cannot be accessed from outside that function.
Anonymous Functions: These are functions without a name, often used as "callbacks" (functions passed as arguments to other functions).
Built-in Functions: JavaScript includes pre-defined functions that you can use immediately like console.log(), alert(), and Math.sqrt(). (To be discussed)
