A script of type module creates it's own scope preventing var declarations from bubbling up to the global scope

[@leonardchan2638]

There's an edge case where, you just declare a variable (but don't assign a value to it) let varname; and typeof varname is actually 'undefined'. So you can't re-declare it. Not practically useful though...

[@grenzhochspannungshindernis]

Can you recommend any how-to-program books?

[@SteveGriffith-Prof3ssorSt3v3]

There are thousands. It depends on what specifically you are trying to learn. What language? What framework? What technology? I recommend going to a book store and spend a couple hours flipping through books on the topic you want to learn. Pick a book whose author writes in a way that you understand. It doesn't matter what book or what you are learning. As long as you are learning, you are making progress. Programming is a life-long learning process. Just start.

Hey steve, I'm 15 year old and I only just started learning programming, I want to make it a career out of it, is starting at 15 ideal and how many years will it take me on average to achieve an intermediate or advanced level??

[@SteveGriffith-Prof3ssorSt3v3]

In my program, I've taught 17 year olds and 60 year olds. Both of whom did great. The best time to start learning how to program is today. The time required to get to an intermediate level depends on the person and how much time is spent learning and practicing through building things. Could be a year, or could be five years. You also have to consider intermediate in which area. There are lots of areas to learn about in programming. You can be a beginner in a dozen and intermediate in a couple, and advanced in a couple others.

Great video!

[@mayankshashi5557]

Hi sir, can you please make a video on how we can display image on webpage when we upload image data into indexdb in offline mode?

[@SteveGriffith-Prof3ssorSt3v3]

This video explains how to work with files and data to display things on a webpage - kzbin.info/www/bejne/sKKVqXdjrdp8fZY I do plan to make a video on how to save files with IndexedDB... not sure when but it is on my list.

Hi Steve, great content. I was wondering if you could make a video on Promise polyfill using es6 classes. It's commonly asked in interviews

[@SteveGriffith-Prof3ssorSt3v3]

I have not heard of that being asked in many years. Node and all browsers all support Promises and have for years.

[@shahinza]

Thank you 🙏

If your not already, you might want to use a noise cancelling mike

[@SteveGriffith-Prof3ssorSt3v3]

I do but there was a Tornado approaching while I was recording. Seriously.

[@bmehder]

@@SteveGriffith-Prof3ssorSt3v3 I was going to ask if you were recording the video during a tornado as a joke. Glad you made it through unharmed.
