Which concepts of javascript do you consider as advanced?

Day 4 : What is memoization in javascript ?

Nikunj R. Prajapati — Thu, 09 Jun 2022 17:58:25 +0000

Memoization is a cache technique that makes application performance faster by storing the results of expensive function calls.
In simple terms it's storing in memory, let's understand it this way,

Example

function someIntensiveDBTask(dependsOnThis){

// Lot's of calculations here, will return same output for same input

}

So in that kind of scenario we can implement Memoization, Let's understand it.

const memo = []
function someIntensiveDBTask(dependsOnThis){

if(memo[dependsOnThis]) return memo[dependsOnThis];

// else part
// Do some calculations...
// ..
// ..
// ..

// we are caching result before returning here and storing it in memo so next time we can use it directly.

memo[dependsOnThis] = result; 

return result

}

Memoization is a way to lower a function’s time cost in exchange for space cost.

Day 3 : What Is IIFE in Javascript ?

Nikunj R. Prajapati — Wed, 08 Jun 2022 17:21:15 +0000

Immediately Invoked Function Expression

IIFE
(function () {
  /* ... */
})();

Arrow function
(() => {
  /* ... */
})();

Async
(async () => {
  /* ... */
})();

This also called as self executing anonymous function

Let's understand this in 2 parts

(

// This prevents accessing variables within the IIFE idiom as well as polluting the global scope.

let a = 10; // will be discarded after the function is executed.

)() =>  immediately invoked function

Example


// "counter" is a function that returns an object with properties, which in this case are functions.
let counter = (function () {
    let i = 0;

    return {
        get: function () {
            return i;
        },
        set: function (val) {
            i = val;
            return `value ${i} set successfully` 
        },
        increment: function () {
            return ++i;
        }
    };
})();

// Just to log data
const log = (f) => console.log(f);

// These calls access the function properties returned by "counter".
log(counter.get())       // 0
log(counter.set(3))      // "value 3 set successfully"
log(counter.increment()) // 4
log(counter.increment()) // 5

log(counter.i) // accessing private variables undefined.

Day 2 : What is pure function in JS ?

Nikunj R. Prajapati — Tue, 07 Jun 2022 16:45:30 +0000

A pure function is a function which

Given the same input, always returns the same output.
Produces no side effects.
Pure functions must not mutate external state.

A function is only pure if, given the same input, it will always produce the same output.

Example :

PURE FUNCTION
function isValid(age){
  return age >= 18;
}

This function will always return true or false based on age.

EXAMPLE OF UNPURE FUNCTION

Pure functions must not mutate external state.

items = [];
const addItems = (item) => {
  items.push({
    item
  }); 
};

addItems() is not a pure function because it mutates the external state by pushing values to that items array.

Day 1 : Objects in javascript

Nikunj R. Prajapati — Mon, 06 Jun 2022 18:05:18 +0000

What is object ?

An object is a collection of properties, and a property is an association between a name (or key) and a value.

const myCar = {
  make: 'Ford',
  model: 'Mustang',
  year: 1969
};

Different ways to create object in javascript

// 1
const obj = new Object();

// 2
const obj = Object.create(null);

// 3 => Most common way
const series = {
     name: "Game of thrones",
     season: 8,
     case: getCast() // can use function as well
};

// 4 => function constructor 
function cast(name) {
  this.name = name;
  this.id = 2;
  this.item = [1,2,3,4
}
var object = new Person("Jon snow");

And Many more..

Tricks and tips

To check in object if particular key is exist or not

obj.hasOwnProperty(key) // returns true if key exists otherwise false.

To get all properties from an object

const cast = {
  name: 'jon snow',
  age: 22,
  active: false
};

console.log(Object.keys(cast));
// expected output: Array ["name", "age", "active"]

Best practices

Object creation 
// bad
const item = new Object();

// good
const item = {};

function getKey(k) {
  return `a key named ${k}`;
}

Use computed property names when creating objects with dynamic property names.
// bad
const obj = {
  id: 5,
  name: 'San Francisco',
};
obj[getKey('enabled')] = true;

// good
const obj = {
  id: 5,
  name: 'San Francisco',

};


Use object method & property shorthand.
// bad
const atom = {
  value: 1,

  addValue: function (value) {
    return atom.value + value;
  },
  name: name
};

// good
const atom = {
  value: 1,

  addValue(value) {
    return atom.value + value;
  },
  name
};

Only quote properties that are invalid identifiers. 
// bad
const bad = {
  'foo': 3,
  'bar': 4,
  'data-blah': 5,
};

// good
const good = {
  foo: 3,
  bar: 4,
  'data-blah': 5,
};

Do not call Object.prototype methods directly, such as hasOwnProperty, propertyIsEnumerable, and isPrototypeOf. 

Why? These methods may be shadowed by properties on the object in question - consider { hasOwnProperty: false } - or, the object may be a null object (Object.create(null)).

// bad
console.log(object.hasOwnProperty(key));

// good
console.log(Object.prototype.hasOwnProperty.call(object, key));

// best
const has = Object.prototype.hasOwnProperty; // cache the lookup once, in module scope.
console.log(has.call(object, key));

/* or */
import has from 'has'; // https://www.npmjs.com/package/has
console.log(has(object, key));

Overview of My Submission

I have built a simple but useful solution using Deepgram python sdk and language tool opensource library.

This is version 0.0.1 of this tool, i have plans to upgrade & customised it in multiple ways, any suggestions are welcome please put in comment sections.

About this tool

Basic use case is for checking grammar in audio files.
This tool is simply take one audio url as input.
Then using DeepGram api it will fetch transcript from it.
Using language tool we will get all the mistakes and corrections
This tool will provide corrected transcript back.
