Hi. I've tried to some up javascript cheatsheet in one article. Hope you like it.

JavaScript Basics

Set of JavaScript basic syntax to add, execute and write basic programming paradigms in Javascript

On Page Script

Adding internal JavaScript to HTML

<script type="module"> //JS code goes here </script>

External JS File

Adding external JavaScript to HTML

<script src="filename.js"></script>

Functions

JavaScript Function syntax

function nameOfFunction () {
// function body 
}

DOM Element

Changing content of a DOM Element

document.getElementById("elementID").innerHTML = "Hello 
World!";

Output

This will print the value of a in JavaScript console

console.log(a);

Conditional Statements

Conditional statements are used to perform operations based on some conditions.

If Statement

The block of code to be executed, when the condition specified is true.

if (condition) {
// block of code to be executed if the condition is true
}

If-else Statement

If the condition for the if block is false, then the else block will be executed.

if (condition) {
// block of code to be executed if the condition is true
} else {
// block of code to be executed if the condition is false
}

Else-if Statement

A basic if-else ladder

if (condition1) {
// block of code to be executed if condition1 is true
} else if (condition2) {
// block of code to be executed if the condition1 is false and condition2 is true
} else {
// block of code to be executed if the condition1 is false and condition2 is false
}

Switch Statement

Switch case statement in JavaScript

switch(expression) {
case x:
// code block
break;
case y:
// code block
break;
default:
// code block
}

Iterative Statements (Loops)

Iterative statement facilitates programmer to execute any block of code lines repeatedly and can be controlled as per conditions added by the programmer.

For Loop

For loop syntax in javascript

for (statement 1; statement 2; statement 3) {
// code block to be executed
}

While Loop

Runs the code till the specified condition is true

while (condition) {
// code block to be executed
}

Do While Loop

A do while loop is executed at least once despite the condition being true or false

do {
// run this code in block
i++;
} while (condition);

Strings

The string is a sequence of characters that is used for storing and managing text data.

charAt method

str.search('term')

split method

Splits a string into an array consisting of substrings.

str.split('\n')

substring method

Returns a substring of a string containing characters from the specified indices.

str.substring(0,5)

Arrays

The array is a collection of data items of the same type. In simple terms, it is a variable that contains multiple values.

variable

Containers for storing data.

var fruit = ["element1", "element2", "element3"];

concat method

Joins two or more arrays together.

concat()

indexOf method

Returns the index of the specified item from the array.

indexOf()

join method

Converts the array elements to a string.

join()

pop method

Deletes the last element of the array.

pop()

reverse method

This method reverses the order of the array elements.

reverse()

sort method

Sorts the array elements in a specified manner.

sort()

toString method

Converts the array elements to a string.

toString()

valueOf method

returns the relevant Number Object holding the value of the argument passed

valueOf()

Number Methods

JS math and number objects provide several constant and methods to perform mathematical operations.

toExponential method

Converts a number to its exponential form.

toExponential()

toPrecision method

Formats a number into a specified length.

toPrecision()

toString method

Converts an object to a string

toString()

valueOf method

Returns the primitive value of a number.

valueOf()

Maths Methods

ceil method
Rounds a number upwards to the nearest integer, and returns the result

ceil(x)

exp method

Returns the value of E^x.

exp(x)

log method

Returns the logarithmic value of x.

log(x)

pow method

Returns the value of x to the power y.

pow(x,y)

random method

Returns a random number between 0 and 1.

random()

sqrt method

Returns the square root of a number x

sqrt(x)

Dates

Date object is used to get the year, month and day. It has methods to get and set day, month, year, hour, minute, and seconds.

Pulling Seconds from the Date object
Returns the seconds from the date object

getSeconds()

Pulling Time from the Date object

Mouse Events

Any change in the state of an object is referred to as an Event. With the help of JS, you can handle events, i.e., how any specific HTML tag will work when the user does something.

click

Fired when an element is clicked

element.addEventListener('click', ()=>{
// Code to be executed when the event is fired
});

oncontextmenu

Fired when an element is right-clicked

element.addEventListener('contextmenu', ()=>{
// Code to be executed when the event is fired
});

dblclick

Fired when an element is double-clicked

element.addEventListener('dblclick', ()=>{
// Code to be executed when the event is fired
});

mouseenter

Fired when an element is entered by the mouse arrow

element.addEventListener('mouseenter', ()=>{
// Code to be executed when the event is fired
});

mouseleave

Fired when an element is exited by the mouse arrow

element.addEventListener('mouseleave', ()=>{
// Code to be executed when the event is fired
});

mousemove

Fired when the mouse is moved inside the element

element.addEventListener('mousemove', ()=>{
// Code to be executed when the event is fired
});

Keyboard Events

keydown

Fired when the user is pressing a key on the keyboard

element.addEventListener('keydown', ()=>{
// Code to be executed when the event is fired
});

keypress

Fired when the user presses the key on the keyboard

element.addEventListener('keypress', ()=>{
// Code to be executed when the event is fired
});

keyup

Fired when the user releases a key on the keyboard

element.addEventListener('keyup', ()=>{
// Code to be executed when the event is fired
});

Errors

Errors are thrown by the compiler or interpreter whenever they find any fault in the code, and it can be of any type like syntax error, run-time error, logical error, etc. JS provides some functions to handle the errors.

try and catch

Try the code block and execute catch when err is thrown

try {
Block of code to try
}
catch(err) {
Block of code to handle errors
}

Window Methods

Methods that are available from the window object

alert method

Used to alert something on the screen

alert()

blur method

The blur() method removes focus from the current window.

blur()

setInterval

Keeps executing code at a certain interval

setInterval(() => {
// Code to be executed
}, 1000);

setTimeout

Executes the code after a certain interval of time

setTimeout(() => {
// Code to be executed
}, 1000);

close

The Window. close() method closes the current window

window.close()

confirm

The window.confirm() instructs the browser to display a dialog with an optional message, and to wait until the user either confirms or cancels

window.confirm('Are you sure?')

open
Opens a new window

window.open("https://www.anmolraj.com");

prompt

Prompts the user with a text and takes a value. Second parameter is the default value

var name = prompt("What is your name?", "Anmol");

scrollBy

window.scrollBy(100, 0); // Scroll 100px to the right

scrollTo

Scrolls the document to the specified coordinates.

window.scrollTo(500, 0); // Scroll to horizontal position 500

clearInterval

Clears the setInterval. var is the value returned by setInterval call

clearInterval(var)

clearTimeout

Clears the setTimeout. var is the value returned by setTimeout call

clearTimeout(var)

stop

Stops the further resource loading

stop()

Query/Get Elements

The browser creates a DOM (Document Object Model) whenever a web page is loaded, and with the help of HTML DOM, one can access and modify all the elements of the HTML document.

querySelector
Selector to select first matching element

document.querySelector('css-selectors')

querySelectorAll

A selector to select all matching elements

document.querySelectorAll('css-selectors', ...)

getElementsByTagName
