oh god, i wish i never sit in front of you in a js interview.
@ThuatNham Hey can you please share secrets to crack interview
They aren't very good secrets if its in a youtube video!
lol
You must wish, if you want to learn more 😁
I feel sorry for companies who ask these silly questions.
This is the worst test possible to know if someone is an amazing programmer, a good programmer, a so so programmer, and someone who's really bad at programming that has no self awareness to how bad they really are.
seriously, if it were me going through the interview, I would withdraw my application form, greet the interviewee in front of me and say "Thanks, but no thanks".
Honestly, I am happy that I found your tutorials. Now I am feeling a little bit comfy so I can prepare for the interview without worries
Same here buddy
If you want to crack these questions then just ask the interviewer where he has used such scenarios. You'll be instantly selected
I'll add it to my *How to look smart in an interview* trello card, thanks!
The point is not to use it, the point is that as a senior you should be aware of the dangers of using tricky codes like this and stop others for doing something like 5 < 6 < 7 even if it works
I been denied on the last round of interview with CTO because of this answer. Everything was great until he decided to gave me a logical puzzle "You need to measure exactly 6 liters of water. But you only have a 4-liter and a 9-liter bucket. How can you do this?" I asked him "How often you guys are measuring water here with buckets" and been rejected right away...
@@anthonya606 Better off not working for them. Too egoistic if they cant even take a simple joke.
@@anthonya606 The thing being measured is irrelevant, they just wanted to test your problem solving skills. Although if you clarified that you were joking and still willing to try but they didn't want to hear it, then yea fuck 'em.
this was really helpful. i am using javascript for many years but never knew of so many features like freeze and seal
you proved that .. those are really useless
@@fidaLMFAO yeah they sound really dangerous tbh... why would i ever wanna make something completely immutable
8:43 - me at my homie house.
Thank you, many times on an interview it becomes obvious the interviewer watched these videos too.
After this one, I had to subscribe.
Thanks for subscribing!
Me too!
These are all code puzzles (not challenges) that an interviewer would use in hopes of eliminating a candidate that they've already decided they don't want but have to appear to give them a fair chance.
I would not want to work with a team that codes like that. And I sure wouldn't use their application. It would have a billion bugs.
At my previous job, I have seen people making really silly mistakes and I realized that they never learned java Script fundamentals rather they jumped to a framework and paid the price.
techsith Object.freeze is not JS fundamentals, it's minitiae that should be looked up to solve a specific problem.
Hey @Christopher If we remove DS and Algorithm then what should be a challenges in JavaScript.
Completely agree. For instance, whilst it can be useful to immediately know intricacies of performing stupid actions in dynamically / weakly typed languages it is far better not to code yourself into them, as one will evetually catch you out! Just because the language allows something, it doesn't necessarily make it sensible to do/ use. And I would also not wish ship code that will be a maintenance nightmare.
Can u help me prepare for a java interview next week bro?
Hello. Can i say something ?
You are the best teacher of JS in the whole WEB :)
Yes True. He is outstanding really
2:20 first I just did this
let nums = [1, 2, 2, 3];
nums= [1, 2, 3]
I wouldn't ask these types of questions in an interview. If anyone wrote code that is so ambiguous, I would question their motives
True. These are questions for interviews. Not really what you will encounter in a code base, because it is really testing the edge cases of JS.
@@cancanjaker1620 I find that it helps to know these quirks so that you can figure out where/how a bug happened when you do something weird like numVariable + stringVariable by accident
@@Daniel_WR_Hart but when writing in an actual code base, you will know the type of variables you are getting and the code written should already handle the cases properly. Also if you consider unit testing, these types of variable quirky bugs are the most easiest to weed out without having to learn about JS "weirdness". As much as I like JS and all these interesting edge cases, code writing do not require developers to answer these from memory. Good code is clear and leave little room for these fun but hair-pulling quirks.
@@cancanjaker1620 But that's not necessarily the case if you're a noob working with a team of noobs and nobody knows what unit testing is. Lately I've been working hard to get gud so that won't be an issue anymore.
Also, when working on my own personal projects, whenever I need to convert a string into a number I prefer string - 0; over parseFloat(string); since it's more concise and I already know at a glance what - 0 would be used for.
@@Daniel_WR_Hart a noob should be learning coding best practices and writing tests instead of getting smart with using quirky language behavior. Which is why most of these interview questions are for "feel good" and ego stroking. They don't indicate a good coder or a team player. With regards to using - 0, it is concise, but the intention of the code is murky, whereas parseFloat is immediately clear to everyone even a non-JS coder. Which means you save JS coder from have to spend time thinking of what - 0 will do, and also save confusion for new coder who move over from another language.
Thanks Sir for the videos you make.
About removing duplicates, if anyone does not want to use ES6, here is how it should be done in ES5.
var a = [1,2,2,3,4];
a.filter(function(value, index)
{
return (a.indexOf(value) == index)
});
here i have a tutorial on how to remove duplicates multiple ways. ruclips.net/video/dvPybpgk5Y4/видео.html
yes but he says you only have 1 line of code to solved it, and cannot use loops
and the problem with filters is it will take a lot of time to run, I mean running time is far more than SET that's why we should never use filter
@@owaisali995 i was not aware of this, can you explain a little more, or perhaps can share some material on this. Thanks in advance
I realized I know nothing about JavaScript xD
I think motivation comes from that realization. :)
RT
Object.freeze ---> Prevent any write operations in that object. Object.seal ---> Able to edit existing data in the object, but not able to add anything new
@7:00 thats pretty interesting, and depends on the direction of associativity.
< and > (I hope those show up, less than and greater than) have left-to-right associativity.
= (equals sign) has right-to-left associativity, which is why we can do a = b = 4
developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Operators/Operator_Precedence
its like difference between these two .. console.log('1'+1+1)..and console.log(1+1+'1');
Walk into interview. Get asked these silly questions which aren't applicable to the real world. Walk right back out.
Agreed. Half of all interviewers just want to show that they know more by researching obscure topics to put you on the spot.
Great class and very well explained.
Please keep this channel because I´m sure It has been helped a lot of developers which try learning more each single day like me.
Thanks
JazakAllah Aameen 🙏 🤲 😍
This vid was meant to subs both your channels. Thanks a ton!
Thanks for watching!
This man is capable of explaining things well in a simple way, the way few people do. Thank you, sir.
I appreciate that!
Amber Heard made this man become a programmer.
turs out javascript can add arrays as well with the + operator😂...I dont think there are many people who can answer all the tricky questions about JS
For 3:00 question, I think in this solution that works for the input provided:
var nums = [1,2,2,3];
nums.splice(2,1);
console.log(nums);
I know it looks a bit silly but, hey, I got the answer. Obviously, if there is more than one duplicate, then the Set works fine.

Sir please make a tutorials on complete nodejs like multar, body parser, jwt, files handling etc
Sure . I have a plan for node tutorials.
@@Techsithtube Have you made one? And yeah I just subd you.
Day by day am becoming a pro developer watching your videos :)
good for interview practice in Javascript Frontend
Thanks for watching!
You write retur not return.
Shouvik, I am getting old ... sorry for that.
If an employee asked me some of these questions in manner of practical application I probably wouldn't want the job.
Bailar, Seldom but people do ask these kinds of silly questions. But yeas if someone asked me such questions, I would not work there.
Nice one. Thank you for uploading
Thank you for saying hi girls :)
Guys is colloquial for people, so basically he said "people and girls".
Weird to say, but factually accurate.

excellent video
i subbed at spreadOperator .(GJ) :)
Thanks for watching!
Very important tutorial for fresher as well as experience person
You are amazing and all, BUT, why are you saying METHOR, and not METHOD? It ends with a D, not with R...
It drives me crazy 😅
helpful
I programmed in all languages listed below and avoid coding in js because it disgust me to deal with it.
Never had similar feelings towards none of those languages.
edit: every new update I check js's changelog for a hope, but nope js's legacy weird parts continues to live

Great video. Each question taught me a concept I barely knew. Thanks for this gem !!!
Glad it was helpful!
OMG WTF. This video is a long list ways NOT to write JavaScript EVER.
If I had a team member who committed opaque, confusing code that used restricted words in silly contexts I would REJECT all of it and have a long sit down with them about best practices.
I think you missed the point of the video. It is explaining interview questions regarding various Javascript concepts. He never said this is how you should be writing your code.
This seems more of a what you "don't know about javascript" rather than what you "do know about javascript", and if we use ("don't know" === "do know") the answer will always be false because we learn things differently than a computer does about programming.
6:23 Gosh JS is just a beautiful language isn't it....
...
I always wonder what is the mindset of interviewer who ask difficult and tricky questions in interview. Is it to show to the interviewee that I (the interviewer) am better than you? That you are joining a "Great" company that will "teach" and "educate" you? These tricky question is a show of my superior intelligence to establish my position of authority? Most of the time, it is exactly this mindset (I have personally have sat among numerous panel of interviewers and being plugged in to their personality knows what is motivating their action). Then the question is why are you employing people who is inferior to you? What are you trying to achieve for the company? Does knowing all the obscure stuffs that majority of interviewee don't know make that one interviewee more superior? Does those obscure stuffs used frequently and critical to the success of the company? Imho, the mindset and attitude of the people you employ is more important that what he knows at the point of interview. Knowledge can be picked up and skill set can be honed. Mindset and attitude however is difficult to mold and tend to persist throughout a person's life. If you employ someone like the interviewer who is fond of asking tricky and difficult question, even though he knows ALOT, your company will never grow beyond the capability of that one interviewer's level because he is not comfortable to admit people who are more capable than him. I personally have lived through all these and I tell you that one interviewer is the biggest stumbling block to the company's growth in capability because no one can be better than him. Those who can successfully answer his tricky and difficult question are rejected while those who cannot, are admitted.
I have no words to thank you sir.... it's really really very helpful and your explanation is great🙏🙏🙏
Just wanted to know for suppose the candidate not come across these type of scenarios, would be really dis-qualify him, because that guy might be knowing something which we don't know.
Q2--Remove duplicate from array
Ans:- arr2 = [...new Set(arr)];
Thank you so much for the video... helped me a lot.
Hello and welcome to 'sexy' (techsith) tutorial.
This might be the reason
Hi, can you please provide the JavaScript videos . I am a beginner in JavaScript
you are too good at explaining . how do you do this !
i understand even if it not understandable..........
The job interview cant be hard .
Techsith: hey 😊
Me: 😭😭😭
Hi.
Thanks for doing such a great job.
One small doubt, i have tried to call the below method in JavaScript stackblitz, it returns null.
Math.max().
I don't know why and How?
that is strange. it should give you -infinite , perhaps its doing some sanitization. have you tried on other platforms?
Hi sir .. can you take my interview on JavaScript and reactjs..
Hi Its great thanks for teaching too instead of only giving the answers, You are letting us think, Great thanks for the videos. And if you have video on spread operator do let me know I was asked this in one of my Interview I have an obj ={ name :" likitha",age : 30 } if you want to change the name property alone to be modified ,you can use spread operator { name: "lohitha" ,...obj} ->this is the answer anyways -> {name : "likitha"} ,but I had no idea of how spread can work in different ways how do they come up with this , I know the spread operator but I am not aware of this option ..,Please do let me know..
I have a tutorial on applications of spread operator. THere I explain a lot about it. Please check it out.
@@Techsithtube sure
no such thing as trickyx or interviewx or rightx etc or not, cepu, do, say any no matter what and any s perfect, idts
would I be wrong if I said, " nums.splice(2, 1);" for the 2nd question? you said not to use some methods, I do know which one you meant. this is one line so it should give us the desired result.
you can use splice. what I mean, trying out new things that you dont know may not know in an interview is a danger.
Bravo! :P
That's why I prefer Kyle Simpson books
Questions are good to crack and debate with someone, but tell me the concepts of selecting a person. On what basis we should select or reject them.
for the second question can't you just do:
delete nums[2];
???
for this specific instance you can do it but in real development you won`t able to see whats input and all that.
Awesome thanks..
Thanks for watching Santosh.
I would have to say, these are all basic and common questions during Chinese Internet Company interviews. The suggestion is that you need to read the book Professional Javascript.

MashAllah Aameen 🙏🤲😍
Glad it helped!
@@Techsithtube JazakAllah Aameen 🙏🤲😍
time 11:45
can't we declare profile as const, instead using freeze?
6:16 is the {} outside the self-invoked function really needed? I tried without the {} and still, v is not defined. Nothing different from having {}. @techsith thanks
You can write either way actually. IIFE has multiple formats.
Amazing content..!
Question: Whats the difference between object.freeze and const?
const wont let you replace the entire value of the object. with Object.freeze you can not change value of object properties. good question
Isn't 4:03 the rest operator? It takes multiple elements and forms an array.
nope.. there is no such thing as 'rest operator' , there is a 'rest parameter'. visually it looks similar to 'spread' operator, which is in fact an operator..
I hate that first question. It's just dumb trivia. This isn't what the job is about.
I was asked the output of this in an interview:
var arr = [1,2,3,4]
for(var i=0;i {
console.log("Index is: ", i)
})
}
- Notice the time interval isn't passed in the setTimeout function. Output turned out to be 4 times "Index is 4" . Can anyone help me understand this.
Because variables defined by var keywords have function scope it doesnt respect blocks scope. for loop creates a block scope and that is why its the same variable gets updated so you get 4 every time because of the closure.
Focus on better explanations instead of spoken speech..
14:00 based on the mdn doc, Object.defineProperty's writable defaults to false already developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Object/defineProperty#Description.
For Q2 - is it new Set(Array)?
Yes, That is right. however new Set(Array) would give back a Set so we need to convert it back to the array.
techsith thank you. I’m trying to pause and answer the questions. Was able to go through only 2 questions only.
Awesome Sir!!
Thank you so much for these tricky things! Reallly useful.
Give your 2nd RUclips channel link??
I felt stupid but I am going to subscribe anyway
let obj = {
name: 'Patel'
}
__proto__:obj;
obj.name='Patel1';
console.log(obj);
After seeing one thing I m sure that javascript is a baseless language

Thanks Sir for this video ... it really help us
Great video sir.. Please keep posting such contents
Helpful
Wish to sit infront of you and u can ask as many js question u cn. Ready to face to sir.
Very nice
Thanks
amazing
Thank you! Cheers!
I wonder if questions like these are a good way to judge someone's knowledge, I mean how would anyone know what Math.max() will return (unless he/she has tried doing this with every available method) and why does it matter? :D
Aanchal, as a javaScript developer you need to know most of the methods that allows you to help with functionality.
Great video! You're a very good instructor and easy to understand as well.
This video is a goldmine for a CS freshy
Pinged you on Facebook. Let's connect.
Bro, wtffffff why programmer have a light ide
I've been watching u for a while now, and your didactics (and thumbnails) are the best. Subscribed!
Hello sir, Have you created videos in nodejs?
I known about "IIFE" but i was unable to think use it here. Sometimes it goes this way i could not think likewise so can you please suggest me, how can i improve myself ?
vivek , I have a tutorial on IIFE that explains it in much more details. Please check it out. that might help
this is exactly why JS is wildly wierd 😇😇
Nice explanation.
Reason behind "arguments" not working with arrow functions is that they take the scope of a parent block :3 so it actually shows parent function's arguments
The second question would still take O(n) Time and space complexity, not using forloop doesn't mean that you improved it.
thank you... if you teach JavaScript let me know.Thanks.
Soon, very soon you'll see the SILVER BUTTON!
Adel, Silver Button is one month away, ;) Thanks for watching.
Superb. Thanks Sir. Can you please do a video on typescript and es6 interview questions?
