JavaScript Objects

Anything that has a state and behavior can be termed an Object, be it physical or logical. An Object is an entity mentioned in the OOPs concept and is frequently found in JavaScript codes.

Creating an object in JavaScript is a direct phenomenon as JavaScript is a template-based language and is not based on classes.

Ways of Creating Objects in JavaScript

Using an object literal:

Syntax:

Object ={property1 : value1, property2 : value2..... propertyN : valueN}

Using an instance of Object

Syntax:

var objectname = new Object();

Accessing Object Properties

Syntax 1:

objectName.propertyName

Syntax 2:

objectName["propertyName"]

Accessing Object Methods

Syntax:

objectName.methodName()

Example:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<p id="example"></p>
<script>
var student = {
first_Name: "Rupali",
last_Name : "Sharma",
id : 789045
};
document.getElementById("example").innerHTML =
student.id + " " + student.first_Name + " " + student.last_Name;
</script>
</body>
</html>
