MODERN JS FOR PYTHONISTAS

Python JavaScript Collection operations

# Variables // Variables // Destructuring object


full_name = "Jane Hacker" let fullName = "Jane Hacker"; let {ola, oi} = translation;
pi = 3.14 const pi = 3.14; // ...and the reverse
const age = 3;
# lists ("Arrays" in JS) // Arrays ("lists" in Py) let info = {fullName, age};
names = ["John", "Paul", "G"] let names = ["John", "Paul", "G"];
// Combine obj, arrays with splat
# dicts (similar to "Objects") // Objects (similar to "dicts") const addedTranslations = {
translation = { let translation = { ...translation,
"ola": "Hello", ola: "Hello", gato: "cat",
"oi": "hi", oi: "Hi", };
} }; const extra = [...names, "Mary"];

# For loops // For loop


for name in names: for (let name of names) { Legacy Syntax
print("name:", name) console.log("name:", name);
}
# While loops // While loops // Loop through properties
x = 0 let x = 0; for (var i in arr) {}
while x < 3: while (x < 3) { // C-style: Loop through numbers
print("X:", x) console.log("X:", x); for (var i = 0; i < 100; i++) {}
x += 1 x++; var a = 3; // function-scoped
} a = 3; // globally scoped
# If-statements // If-statements
if full_name == "Jane": if (fullName === "Jane") {
print("Hi, Jane!") console.log("Hi, Jane!");
elif full_name == "Alice": Async & Callbacks
} else if (fullName === "Alice") {
print("Hey Alice") console.log("Hey Alice");
else: } else { // Callbacks (common in node.js)
print("Don’t know you") console.log("Don’t know you"); fs.readFile("file.txt",
} (err, data) => {
# List comprehension if (err) throw err;
long_names = [ // Array processing (map & filter)
console.log(data);
name.upper() for name in names let longNames = names
if len(name) > 3 .filter(n => n.length > 3) });
] .map(n => n.toUpperCase());
// Promise (common in browser)
# Functions // Functions fetch("http://site.com/api.json")
def greeter(name): function greeter(name) { .then(response => response.json())
print("Hi", name) console.log("Hi", name); .then(data => {
greeter("Bob") } console.log("Resp:", data);
greeter("Bob"); })
# Lambda function .catch(err => {
dst = lambda x, y: x*x + y*y // Arrow function expression console.log("error", err);
const dst = (x, y) => x*x + y*y; });
# Conjunctions // Conjunctions
if age < 18 and drink == "beer": if (age < 18 && drink === "beer") { asynchronous Instead of pausing
print("Too young kiddo") console.log("Too young kiddo"); (“blocking”) for a slow operation,
} the asynchronous approach is to
if age > 18 or drink == "soda": if (age > 18 || drink === "soda") { put-off starting the slow operation,
print("Great choice") console.log("Great choice"); then call a function (“callback”)
} at a later time to signal it’s done
# Class syntax // Class syntax callback A function passed as an argu-
class User(BaseUser): ment to be called later when an
class User extends BaseUser { event is triggered
def __init__(self, name): constructor(name) {
self.name = name promise Another popular way to do
this.name = name; callbacks, with a .then syntax
self.logged_in = False this.loggedIn = false;
def log_in(self): }
self.logged_in = True logIn() { Variable Declaration
this.loggedIn = true;
}
} let Declare a variable (block scoped)
user = User("jqhacker") let user = new User("jqhacker"); const Like let, cannot be reassigned.
