JavaScript does not support Function Overloading. The following shows function overloading − function funcONE(x,y) { return x*y; } function funcONE(z) { return z; } The above will not show an error, but you won't get desired results. On calling, // prints 5 funcONE(5); // prints 5, not 30 funcONE(5,6); JavaScript does not support function overloading natively. If we will add functions with the same name and different arguments, it considers the last defined function.

JavaScript automatically allocates memory, while a variable is declared. Garbage collection finds memory no longer used by the application and releases it since it is of no use. Garbage collector uses algorithms like Mark-and-sweep algorithm, to find the memory no longer used.This algorithm is used to free memory when an object is unreachable. The garbage collector identifies the objects, which are reachable or unreachable. These unreachable objects get the treatment from the automatic garbage collector.The Reference-Counting Garbage Collection is also used for garbage collection in JavaScript. The object will get automatically garbage collected if there are no references to it. ... Read More

To enhance performance, try to keep JavaScript external. The separate code makes it easier for web browsers to cache. However, use inline scripts only when you’re making single page websites. Still, it's better to use external code i.e. external JavaScript. To place JavaScript in external file create an external JavaScript file with the extension .js. After creating, add it to the HTML file in the script tag. The src attribute is used to include that external JavaScript file. If you have more than one external JavaScript file, then add it to the same web page to increase the performance of ... Read More

Narrowing refers to passing a higher size data type like int to a lower size data type like short. It may lead to data loss. Casting is required for narrowing conversion. Following program output will be 44. public class MyFirstJavaProgram { public static void main(String []args) { int a = 300; byte b = (byte)a; // narrowing System.out.println(b); } }

Presence of a certain file in the computer can be verified by two ways using Python code. One way is using isfile() function of os.path module. The function returns true if file at specified path exists, otherwise it returns false. >>> import os >>> os.path.isfile("d:\Package1\package1\fibo.py") True >>> os.path.isfile("d:/Package1/package1/fibo.py") True >>> os.path.isfile("d:onexisting.txt") Note that to use backslash in path, two backslashes have to be used to escape out of Python string. Other way is to catch IOError exception that is raised when open() function has string argument corresponding to non-existing file. try: fo = open("d:onexisting.txt", ... Read More
