Hi brother I am watching your videos for some time now and in intial period I thought this is going to be like other channels with few tutorials of this and then few tutorials of that but I was wrong this is purely javascript based 100% pure content, I am Software Engineer in test at EA sports I can say the info you provide is legit, I use javascript everyday and use atleast 60% to 70% concepts you covered. Keep on doing this, we need more content creators like you. Stay motivated stay hungry
Never knew the term but was searching for this functionality to implement in an ongoing project! Learned and implemented a new concept (checked) :-P Thanks for this amazing video!
Haha same. Saw this video 2 years ago when I was preparing for interview and now I'm using this for a project at work. There is another way to do it but I will use this so I can learn something cool :D
I am watching your video when my road is blocked from all side. This this the right place you will get right solution of your problem. Keep up the good work sir!
jab se maine Akshay bhaiya k namaste javascript video ko dekhna start kra exdm se love hone lga javascript mein. Ab main kitne bhi hours javascript mein code kru mereko boring ni lgta. Thankyou so much bhaiya for making these kinda videos. very nice explanation agian :) 😅😅
Very good explanation @Akshay. However there are few bugs and unused variables in the code. 1. You haven't used 'fn' param in debounce function, though you have passed the 'argument' - 'getData' from 20th line. 2. If you had used the 'fn' param in the setTimout function, you would have avoided the getData function in line no.15 3. If you had adjusted the 2nd point right, you wouldn't need to keep the reference of 'this' and 'arg' unnecessarily, It would have automatically keeps the outer function params value intact. ( That's what closure does).
@@PrajwalCoding every functions that are declared, has access to this 'arguments' object which basically contains the arguments passed to the function. NOTE : arrow functions do not have 'arguments' object
I just love your videos brother you put all all your efforts in the explanation....I have found very few tutors who go that deep into the concept...love your work..🎉
Bro. I not watched video and hearing audio only easy to understand that speaking. Smart learner to teaching easy way to know the concept... Smart move.. now I'm going to watch the video...🎉❤️
Hi Akshay, its really awesome work, you are doing. You explained debounce very nicely. Looks like, you missed to call fn() inside debounce method and instead you called the getData(). There is no impact on final output but since you are passing getData reference as first argument. So, it is better to call the fn(). Thanks Akshay keep doing this work. Friday night I started with one video of yours and i watched till 5 am morning. So, I have targeted to finish all your videos over the weekend. I feel like i am watching any online series. its to tempting and interesting. Thanks
Yeah, it's best to use the loadash library if you're implementing debouncing in your webapp. But in interviews, it's frequently asked to write your own implementation of debounce function, just to check if the candidate understand what happens behind the scenes or not. 😊
I added the code as a repo for those who would like to refer on Github. Here is the link : github.com/prateek951/js-interview-questions Thanks Akshay :) . It's an awesome refresher.
Great explanation, it was really clear! Just want to point out a little thing that you forget to use the parameter fn (the function passed to debounce function) instead of directly use getData function in the body. Keep up the good work sir!
Nice example Akshay but there are two things that are missing in the explanation one is timer variable which holds the setTimeout as closure and clearing out the setTimeout callback going to the event queue for event loop using clearTimeout function.
recently i came across the videos of your channel and it has helped me to understand and getting mind set how to think of a solution for real project complex optimization. Keep publishing video with these simple easy to the point explanation. thanks a lot. I just implement this concept in my project it makes a huge performance boost
You are doing an awesome job akshay👍👍👍....I am using your videos as tutorials for preparing for interviews... the way you explain with examples and codes is really very helpful ... makes understanding the concept very easy... keep doing more such videos 👏👏👏
Thank you so much, Akshay. You really doing very helpful job, explains every with such simplicity that even complex concept doesn't seems complex any more.
Akshay you have done a great job. I can understand it would take more time behind the camera for making understand well. So keep it up this good job and helping us
Hey guys im just confused, like Does akshay messed something 1. fn.apply should be there instead of getData.apply inside setTimeout, 2. arg should be use if we are doing args = argument, like this fn.apply(context, args); ```javascript function getData(){ console.log("hey"); } const debounce = function(fn,d){ let timer; return function(){ let context = this; let args = arguments; clearTimeout(timer); timer = setTimeout(()=>{ fn.apply(context, args) },d) } } const delay = 250; const betterFunction = debounce(getData, delay) ``` ikr markdown not gonna work in yt comment section revising my concepts by watching the knowledge heavy js series in 2024, thanks aton Akshay, I learnt alot from your videos. ❤
We want video on throttling! Thanks Akshay😊 it was a nice demonstration on an important topic. Looking forward for more of these type of videos. P.s. You're awesome!
Thank You. nice knowledge share. Throttling is better way to handle than debouncing, as always last current data is sent after every throttle period. In any case, both approach still does not know how to clear last call already made to server (assumption is even server may take x time at server to service each call). It is important even server to drop obsolete call if respective next relevant request has come..
Hi Raja, Thanks for recognising the efforts. However to add to your point, I won't agree that throttling is a better way than debouncing. They are altogether very different and we can't compare between them. But I've personally find myself stuck in many situations were debouncing helped me instead throttling. Thanks :)
Hi Akshay, Correct me if I am wrong. In this case, there is no need to bind the getData function like getData.apply(context) where context is pointing to "this'". debounce function is in the global scope. so "this" inside it is pointing to global i.e window object; "this" keyword in the anonymous function that is inside the debounce function point to the input field. And finally, since function inside the set timeout is an arrow function, "this" inside it will automatically take its reference from its enclosing scope that is an outer anonymous function. So "this" inside arrow function point to input field. But since getData() function called without "this" keyword so it automatically points to the global scope where getData() function is defined.
I have nicely understood the concept of debouncing method except that `apply( )` and `context`. Can you please suggest any link for context and apply method ?. Very nice explanation 👌✨🎉
Pls explain throttling and prototypes and prototypal inheritance and promises related interview questions. Also closures and currying and React js interview questions Akshay.

Wow amazing ashai bro... love you super.... smart code and smart explanation i alway like your concepts....and very useful for my life..................... Topic: please explain about react props drilling concepts?please bro ...
Hi Akshay, I think you did a pretty well job but to make it simpler to understand you can also write it as: // debounce method const debounceRequests = (fn, delay) => { let timer; return function() { // clearing timeout if(timer) { clearTimeout(timer); } // setting timeout timer = setTimeout(fn, delay); // no need to use apply method and creating context since already passing an function as callback } } // normal function to fectch data on key press event let counter = 0; const fetchData = () => { console.log(counter++ + ' fetching data.. '); } const makeDebounceReq = debounceRequests(fetchData, 300); Let me know if you have any better solution. Regards, Amit Agrawal
Debouncing is a programming technique used to limit the rate at which a function is executed. Example: Imagine a search bar where a function fetches data and updates the frontend on each keypress. We don't want this function to be invoked for every single keystroke. Instead, we want it to trigger only after the user stops typing for at least 300 milliseconds. Debouncing achieves this by waiting for a pause in the user input before executing the function, reducing unnecessary API calls and improving performance.
Namaste Akshai, I think here storing context "this" is not necessary since "this" is by default window inside the setTimeout in a non-strict mode. It would be useful if we use functions as classes to store "this" context. Also, you need to define the context outside the return function, since "this" is a reference that is not present as a variable in a lexical scope so the closure formed cannot remember and "this" by default points to Window. PS: the word lexical scope learned from your youtube video series Namaste JavaScript.
one more efficient way is to check for spaces and stop words, and also cache those requests (memoize) along with debounce so that the API request to the server can be minimized and better auto suggestion.

Hi Akshay,
I think you did a pretty well job but to make it simpler to understand you can also write it as:
// debounce method
const debounceRequests = (fn, delay) => {
let timer;
return function() {
// clearing timeout
if(timer) {
clearTimeout(timer);
}
// setting timeout
timer = setTimeout(fn, delay);
// no need to use apply method and creating context since already passing an function as callback
}
}
// normal function to fectch data on key press event
let counter = 0;
const fetchData = () => {
console.log(counter++ + ' fetching data.. ');
}
const makeDebounceReq = debounceRequests(fetchData, 300);
Let me know if you have any better solution.

Debouncing is a programming technique used to limit the rate at which a function is executed.

@10:14 Why using getData at line number when fn is there in argument?

Thanks , I learned something new today.
Namaste Akshai, I think here storing context "this" is not necessary since "this" is by default window inside the setTimeout in a non-strict mode. It would be useful if we use functions as classes to store "this" context.

Yes, this is my doubt. This is global so not lexical.

Thanks Man for this amazing content
one more efficient way is to check for spaces and stop words, and also cache those requests (memoize) along with debounce so that the API request to the server can be minimized and better auto suggestion.
in modern scenerios, combination of debounce and throttling is used. and cache is always preferred.
