Understanding function declaration vs expression in JavaScript

When I started learning javascript for the first time, it took me a long time to grasp some concepts. In fact, at a point nothing made sense to me, because having learn't html and css first before diving into JavaScript I felt programming was easy :(...

Beautiful explanation and straight to the point.

Your writing style is good.

I learnt that function declaration can be Hoisted.

While function expression is good for Immediately Invoked Function Expression and using it also prevents polluting the global scope.

Thanks so much for writing about these subtle differences.
