 /*This are questions where you need to find output and explain the output of snippet.

Please run each snippet seperately to understand it better

//1)
(async () => {
try {
var x = 21;
var test = function () {
console.log(x);
let x = 20;
};
test();
} catch (e) {
console.log(e)
}


//output: ReferenceError: Cannot access 'x' before initialization
//As we define let and its scope is block and hositing of let is in temporary dead zone that we can't access before initialization.

})();





//2) What will the output with explanation:
(async () => {


setTimeout(() => {
console.log("In zero timeout")
}, 0)

const c = "hi";
process.nextTick(() => {
console.log("In process nexttick ")

})

var value = await new Promise((resolve, reject) => {

resolve("resolve")

})
setImmediate(() => {
// run something
console.log("set immediate")

});
console.log(value)

for (let i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
console.log(i)
}

for (let i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
setTimeout(() => {

console.log(i, "")

}, 0)
}
console.log(c)
/*
1)In process nexttick=> process.nextTick will
2)resolve-> Beacuse we are using await to get the result so after await is executed other things will be executed.
3)0 to 9 values -> as it is for loop and will work synchronous
4)hi->
5)In zero timeout -> Though it is first line of code with 0 settimeout but still it will executed by DOM apis and its async operation.
6)0 to 9 ->Again settimeout in for loop it will be aync
Note:set immediate we can't exactly tell when will it run as depends upon which phaze event loop is running.
It runs in check phaze with respect to nodejs event loop.
Though within an i/o cycle we can gurantee that it will run before setTimeout .
Read this:https://nodejs.org/en/docs/guides/event-loop-timers-and-nexttick ->setImmediate() vs setTimeout()
What will be output
timeout_vs_immediate.js
(async () => {
const fs = require('fs');
fs.readFile(__filename, () => {
setTimeout(() => {
console.log('timeout');
}, 0);
setImmediate(() => {
console.log('immediate');
});
});
The main advantage to using setImmediate() over setTimeout() is setImmediate()
will always be executed before any timers if scheduled within an I/O cycle,
independently of how many timers are present.
If we run the following script which is not within an I/O cycle (i.e. the main module),
the order in which the two timers are executed is non-deterministic, as it is bound by the performance of the process:
For ex:
setTimeout(() => {
console.log('timeout');
}, 0);
setImmediate(() => {
console.log('immediate');
});
*/



})();


//4) What will be output:
(async () => {
function display1() {
return {
hello: "world"
};
}
function display2() {
return
{
hello: "world2"
};
}

console.log(display1())//Hello :world

console.log(display2())
/*undefined as code is not reachable.
The "rule" is automatic semicolon insertion.
return is a valid statement all on its own, so it is treated as a complete statement. The code starting on the next line is also syntactically valid (although it's not interpreted as an object at all in this case, but rather a code block containing a label and a single "statement" that consists of a string literal). So automatic semicolon insertion kicks in here and the two are treated as separate statements.
The code that starts on the line after the return is simply ignored.*/

})();



//5) What will be output:
(async () => {

var p=t=10;
console.log(p,t)//output will be p and t will be 10;
})()
console.log(t)//this will be 10 outside scope means global scope.Means t will be global variable but not p.
/*
There is also a downside in multiple assignment,
in that the secondary variables become globals,
and you don't want to leak into the global namespace.

Coding Interview Questions Set 1

From this article, I will be sharing with you all a series of articles on coding interview questions. So please stay connected for the latest set of questions. It will be a good brainstorming exercise and will also prepare you for coding interviews and will definitely boost your confidence. So let's start, 1)Reverse of a string with only O(1) extra memory. Solution: var reverse = function(string) {     let result = ''     for(let i= string.length -1; i >= 0; i--){         result += string[i];     }     return result; }; 2)Fizz Buzz: Write a program that will accept a number n and will output number till n but for multiples of three it should output “Fizz” instead of the number and for the multiples of five output “Buzz”. For numbers which are multiples of both three and five output “FizzBuzz”. Solution: var fizzBuzz= function(n) {     const arr=[]     for(i=1; i<=n; i++){ ...

JavaScript: Debouncing | Flipkart UI Interview Question.

To understand this programming practice will go with a quick example. We all do online shopping and we do search for products on Flipkart on the search bar. So when we type on search bar i.e on every keypress we are actually giving API requests to the server, which in response gives us suggestions. Actually, it's a time-consuming task and may degrade the performance of the webpage. So to improve the performance we use debounce function which actually acts as a controller which reduces the API request to the server on keypress event. In simple terms, we are giving API request only after a certain amount of time between two keypress events. A debounce is a higher-order function. Higher-order function: A function that returns another function. Let's dive deep: HTML Code: <input type="text" onkeyup="searchProducts()"/> Consider this as a search bar for Flipkart. On any keypress, we are calling searchProducts() function. Javascri...

Node.js: Bundling your Node.js application to single executable for Windows.

In this article, we will see how to bundle Node.js application to a single executable for Windows. What's the need? Well recently, I had taken a work where I needed to convert pdf's(Of similar format) to excel sheet. So I was reading the pdf's from a folder in desktop and I was storing the output excel sheet into a separate folder on the desktop. I used Node.js for the program. Now the client wanted it to install the program on 25 windows machine and his budget was really low. So it was also not possible for me to install node.js for 25 machines and then install the required dependency for each one. One of the solution: While I was searching for an easy solution I found this amazing npm module pkg . This module can make your node.js app work like plug and play type. No need to install Node.js on the client machine or any other dependency.  It helps to make a commercial or trial version of your node.js application without exposing the source code. I found ...
