A function in javascript is a set of statements that perform a specific task, it take inputs, do some specific computation, and produce output. The idea is to put some commonly or repeatedly done tasks together and make a function so that instead of writing the same code again and again for different inputs, we can call that function.
Syntax:
function myFun(parameter) {
statements...
};
Example: Here is the basic javascript function example in which we add 2 elements.
Javascript
function myFunction(a, b) { return a + b; } // Calling the function const result = myFunction(5, 2); console.log(result); |
Output:
7
