[@arunkumarpandi4044]

Just a suggestion you can also explain the call apply bind with the same example . Where before changing it to arrow function of greet2 (with the same normal function greet 2 we can apply call,apply and bind to get the same output like "greet2.apply(this);" (or) greet2.call(this); (or) greet2.bind(this)(); ) which also covers the call, apply and bind methods

[@CodeWellTech]

Sure bro 😊

Sir, Greet1 function is also defined in the person object scope, but if we use arrow function on greet1 then , this refers to window object instead it should point to person object

[@CodeWellTech]

Will check and answer soon. Bit busy now a days. Please don't paste other channels urls or links. Hope you understand. Instead you can provide your understanding.

[@CodeWellTech]

Sorry for late reply, as I mentioned in the video arrow function will not have own this. You can explicitly pass the scope using bind. Will try to cover everything about arrow functions and scope in next video. Thanks for understanding and interest.

[@hellonehha]

The reason is object doesn't have any 'this'. In FAF, greet1 is referring to the window. Whereas in the greet2 (FAF) this is getting inherited from the parent and in this case it is a normal function and normal function has this. Hence, greet2 (FAF) is able to return the output.

[@vishnuerema415]

❤❤

[@swapnat111]

Thank you sir

[@IvanBankovic-k6n]

Great video and thanks but what is going on when you use setInterval, why it always set it back to window object? How setInterval calls its function?

[@vinayjangra1401]

Thank you so much, you made it so easy to understand 🔥🔥 💯

[@anandgarikapati3769]

please do more videos on the front end .very good content

[@CodeWellTech]

Thanks Anand. Kindly like and follow my videos. Will do more videos on frontend.

[@hadeedtmgggg5837]

Thanks sir love you from Pakistan ❣️❣️

[@jazimabbas8168]

Could you please explain. You said in arrow function it matters where function is defined. And greet2 is defined in the person object. This is the explanation you gave. Lets convert greet1 function to arrow function. Then the greet1 arrow function will also defined in the person object right. Then this will not reference the person object. But it still defined in the person object.
Need some explanation please.. Thanks in advance ...

[@Saksham-Gupta]

i have the same ques

[@relaxwithshreem4037]

Hi @CodeWellTech,
Great Vedio, with clear explianation but I have a doubt in the below snippet and your statement. Could you please help. Thanks
const obj = {
name:'shree',
age: 23,
greet: ()=>{
console.log(`Hello, my name is ${this.name } and I am ${this.age} years old.`);
}
};
obj.greet();
this in ()=>: Based on the scope of arrow function defined within.

[@trinadhkamma8186]

Thank you so much 💞💞

[@cricminiatures]

Lucid Explanation

[@CodeWellTech]

Thank you very much 😊

[@hectorserrano9314]

Your last example of the arrow function would've worked with a named function as well 🤔

[@CodeWellTech]

Thanks for your thoughts

[@hectorserrano9314]

@@CodeWellTech Great walkthrough and thoroughly explained. Thank you so much!

[@_RajvardhanSingh]

Hey, thanks for video. Great explanation but I have a doubt.
const person = {
name: "max",
age:19,
greet : () => {
console.log(this.name);
}
};
Why it throws undefined?

[@samking618]

have you figured this out?

[@_RajvardhanSingh]

@@samking618 no

[@ohmegatech666]

Thanks for the video, but it doesn't explain why in the greet2 function, "this" refers to the Window object. Also it sounds like you're recording the video in a large cave

[@CodeWellTech]

Will make sure everything sounds clear next time. Thanks for feeding and understanding

[@abhisheksatyam4733]

thanks

[@nolep5555]

why if I use global variable using var not let or const, the value of variable is null if I using this to refer to global object

[@sanketsrivastava7971]

The scope of let & const is different.

[@JimmyKama]

What's wrong with this code? It display "cannot read properties of undefined in the following code..
var age = 28;
function displayAge() {
console.log(this.age);
console.log(this);
}
displayAge();
var person = {
age: 26,
displayAge: displayAge,
};
person.displayAge();
If you use non strict mode, can you please use strict mode since this way is much more acceptable these days. By the way, your method of teaching is really understandable. I feel very sorry why it doesn't work for me! Also, woould you please use a better mic so that we can hear better. There's some noise behind..🙏🙏🙏

[@surajsomavanshi7804]

let name = "xxx";
const obj1 = {
name: "myName",
getName: ()=> {
console.log(this.name);
}
}
obj1.getName(); // undefined why output is like this in VSCODE?

[@CodeWellTech]

Since you have defined getName as arrow function and calling getName globally it is undefined. In this case this points to window object. Define getName as normal function then you see output as you expected

[@CodeWellTech]

If you still want arrow function then use obj1 instead of this when accessing obj1 properties
