Hello, Can someone please explain me this const {r,g,b} = this;
Why it has no variable name, if 'this' is the variable name, to what
that 'this' pointing to?
function makeColor(r, g, b) {
const color = {};
color.r = r;
color.g = g;
color.b = b;
color.rgb = function () {
const { r, g, b } = this;
return `rgb(${r},${g},${b})`
}
}
CodePudding user response:
The word 'this' is not a variable. This is a relatively new concept. they call it object destructuring syntax.
CodePudding user response:
"this" is a special property of methods. When a function is called as a method of an object, as it is here, "this" refers to that object, in this case the color object, so the color.rgb() method will return the string "rgb(r,g,b)" where the r, g, and b there are the values fed to the makeColor function used to create that object.
CodePudding user response:
Variable this
not even exits, this is one of the reversed words(such as break
, for
, function
, let
etc.), this
in context you show directs to color
constant, so in context you show this
equals to color
constant.
