Accessing property of object vs variable in javascript
- by Samuel
Why when I try to access a variable that don't exist, javascript throw an exception but when I try to access a property that don't exist in an object, javascript returns an undefined object?
For example, this case returns an undefined object:
function Foo(){
console.log(this.bar);
}
Foo();
But, in this other example, javascript throw an exception:
function Foo(){
console.log(bar);
}
Foo();
ReferenceError: bar is not defined
