Output:
It looks like you’ve provided a JavaScript code snippet. Let’s break down what’s happening step by step:
var a = 'amit';
: This declares a variablea
and assigns it the value'amit'
.var b = a;
: This declares a variableb
and assigns it the value ofa
, which is'amit'
.function abc() {...}
: This defines a function namedabc
. Inside this function, there is a declaration of a variablea
using thevar
keyword. However, since variable declarations are hoisted (moved to the top of the scope), thea
inside the function is hoisted to the top of the function’s scope but is not assigned a value at this point.b = 'sumit';
: This assigns the value'sumit'
to the variableb
. This does not affect the variablea
.abc(a);
: This calls theabc
function and passes the value ofa
as an argument. Inside the function, there is a local variablea
declared and assigned the value'Mohit'
.console.log('a', a);
: This logs the value of the global variablea
, which is still'amit'
since the locala
inside theabc
function does not affect the globala
.console.log('b', b);
: This logs the value of the global variableb
, which was assigned'sumit'
earlier.
Here’s the sequence of output you would see when you run the code:
in a1 : undefined
in a2 : Mohit
a amit
b sumit
Notice that inside the abc
function, when you first try to log the value of a
, it shows undefined
. This is because of variable hoisting – the local variable a
is hoisted to the top of the function, but its value is not assigned until later. As a result, when you log it before assigning the value 'Mohit'
, it shows undefined
.
