Why Study JavaScript?
JavaScript is one of the 3 languages all web developers must learn:
1. HTML to define the content of web pages
2. CSS to specify the layout of web pages
3. JavaScript to program the behavior of web pages
This tutorial is about JavaScript, and how JavaScript works with HTML and
CSS.
JavaScript Assignment Operators
Assignment operators are used to assign values to JavaScript variables.
Operator Example Same As
= x = y x = y
+= x += y x = x + y
-= x -= y x = x - y
*= x *= y x = x * y
/= x /= y x = x / y
%= x %= y x = x % y

JavaScript Arithmetic Operators
Arithmetic operators are used to perform arithmetic between variables
and/or values.
Operator Description
+ Addition
- Subtraction
* Multiplication
/ Division
% Modulus
++ Increment
-- Decrement
The addition operator (+) adds a value:
JavaScript Data Types
JavaScript variables can hold many data types: numbers, strings,
arrays, objects and more:
var length = 16; // Number
var lastName = "Johnson"; // String
var cars = ["Saab", "Volvo", "BMW"]; // Array
var x = {firstName:"John", lastName:"Doe"}; // Object
JavaScript Booleans
Booleans can only have two values: true or false.
Example

var x = true;
var y = false;
JavaScript Arrays
JavaScript arrays are written with square brackets.
Array items are separated by commas.
The following code declares (creates) an array called cars, containing
three items (car names):
Example
var cars = ["Saab", "Volvo", "BMW"];
JavaScript Objects
JavaScript objects are written with curly braces.
Object properties are written as name:value pairs, separated by commas.
Example
var person = {firstName:"John", lastName:"Doe", age:50,
eyeColor:"blue"};
onClick:
<INPUT TYPE="submit" NAME="mysubmit" VALUE="Submit"
onClick="return confirm(`Are you sure you want to submit the form?')">
<SCRIPT>
function valid(form) {
var input = form.data.value;
alert("Hello " + input + " ! Welcome...");
}
