JavaScript Comments and Variables
JavaScript Comments and Variables
In this tutorial of ” JavaScript Comments and Variables “, you will learn Comments and Variables of JavaScript. How to write comments on JavaScript program, and we learn here about Variables of JavaScript, how to make variable and assign the value of variable. We learn here comments and variables with programming examples of all the topic.
JavaScript Comments
The JavaScript comments are used to deliver the right message through text, numeric value and others. It makes programming easier to read and understand. Comments can be used to add notes, suggestions and hints to a JavaScript code.
Types of Comments in JavaScript
Mainly there are two types of comments in JavaScript, that are given below;
- Single-Line Comments
- Multi-Line Comments
Now you will read one by one both types of comments and also see the programming code of both comments.
Single-Line Comments
Single-Line comments are used in JavaScript programming to write single line comment, you can’t write more than one line in single line comment.
To make a single-line comment, add two forward slash
“//” to the beginning of the comment line. Look below the example of code to better understand.
Programming Example of Single-Line Comment;
<!DOCTYPE html> <html lang="en"> <head> <meta charset="UTF-8"> <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge">  <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">  <title>Comment</title> </head> <body> <p id="comment">Welcome to StudyMuch!</p> <button type="button" onclick="myfunc()"> CHANGE</button> <script> // This program change contents.  function myfunc(){  var text = "Hellow Everyone!"; // P change in "Hello Everyone."  document.getElementById ("comment").innerHTML=text    } </script> </body> </html> |
You can see in the above programming code the green color lien is comment, it was started in two forward slash “//”, that is called the single-line comment.
Multi-Line Comment
Multi line comments are used to write more than one-line comments, to make multiples line of comments in JavaScript, use this “/*” in starting of line and “*/” use this in ends of line.
For examples; look below image
Programming examples of Multi-Line Comments;
<!DOCTYPE html> <html lang="en"> <head> <meta charset="UTF-8"> <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge">  <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">  <title>Comment</title> </head> <body>  <p id="comment">Welcome to StudyMuch!</p>  <button type="button" onclick="myfunc()"> CHANGE</button>  <script> /*  This program  will change the contents. P will change in "Hello Everyone,  when you lick the button  */  function myfunc(){   var text = "Hellow Everyone!";   document.getElementById ("comment").innerHTML=text    }  </script> </body> </html> |
Above you can see in the programming example, all the green line are the multi-line comments. You can also use this for single line comments in JavaScript programming.
JavaScript Variables
Variable in JavaScript is simply a name of storage locations, in programming or even in algebra, we use variables to hold the values. In JavaScript, Variable are used to store data. The variable data stored could be a text, a number and both or others.
You can see below simple variables in programming example, we write variable to “var” (short form of variable) in programming code.
Programming example of variable;
<!DOCTYPE html> <html lang="en"> <head> Â <meta charset="UTF-8"> Â <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge"> Â <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0"> Â <title>Variable</title> </head> <body> <script> Â Â var firstname = "Shubham"; Â Â var lastname = "Verma"; Â Â var age = 20; Â Â //Printing the all values. Â Â document.write(firstname +""+lastname+"<br>"); Â Â document.write(age); </script> </body> </html> |
Output of Programming;
You can see above in programming example of variable, firstname, lastname and age are variables.
As you can expect:
- The text “Shubham” is stored/assigned to firstname.
- The text “Verma” is stored/assigned to lastname.
- And the number 30 is stored/assigned to age.
Look one more programming example of variable;
<!DOCTYPE html> <html lang="en"> <head> Â <meta charset="UTF-8"> Â <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge"> Â <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0"> Â <title>Variable</title> </head> <body> <script> Â Â var x = 50; Â Â var y = 30; Â Â var sum = x+y; Â Â //Printing the sum values. Â Â document.write(sum); </script> </body> </html> |
The output of this programming example is sum of 50 and 30 is equal to 80, finally 80 is output. You can see in programming we create three variable x, y and sum.
Naming Variable;
JavaScript variables should be identified with unique names. These unique names are called identifiers. Identifiers can be short as single letters such as x, y, a, b, z, s etc. They could also be descriptive like firstname or lastname etc.
Rules of Naming Variables
- A name should start a letter, an underscore or a doller sign.
- A name is case-sensitive.
- A name cannot start with a number.
- JavaScript reserved keywords like (var, function, if, else, etc.) cannot be used as variable name.
So, in this tutorial “JavaScript Comments and Variables” you learned about JavaScript Comments, types of writing comments and Variables of JavaScript with programming examples. I hope you read this tutorial well and learn new something about JavaScript. If you have any doubt, ask in the comment section.Â
