Title: JavaScript: Prototype based inheritance and anonymous functions
Abstract
JavaScript is a very popular programming language used in many
web-pages. However, most of this code is very simplistic. In this talk
I'll tell more about some of the more powerful concepts used in the
JavaScript language. In particular prototype-based inheritance and
anonymous functions.
These anonymous functions are implemented by means of closures, and
I'll try to explain how these closures are implemented in JavaScript.
Near the end I will give an overview of the new features that will be
implemented in future versions of JavaScript.
