Coding with JavaScript For Dummies, Minnick C., Holland E., 2015.

   This book is a friendly and approachable guide to getting started with writing JavaScript code. As programming languages go, JavaScript is fairly easy to pick up and start using. Because it’s so accessible, many people who started as web page authors have found themselves in the position of being responsible for maintaining, modifying, and writing JavaScript code. If that describes you, this book will quickly and easily bring you up to speed.
Whether you know a little JavaScript or you’ve never seen it, this book shows you how to write JavaScript the right way.




Commenting your code.
As you learn more JavaScript commands and start to write larger programs, it’s often helpful to be able to leave yourself little reminders of what you were thinking or what certain things do. In programmer-speak, we call these tiny notes to ourselves (or to anyone else who may work with your code) comments. We call the process of writing these notes commenting.

The JavaScript engine completely ignores comments. They are there Just for people. This is your time to explain things, clarify things, describe your thinking, or even leave reminders to yourself about things you want to do in the future.

It is always a good idea to comment your code. Even if you think that your code is pretty self-explanatory at the time that you write it, we guarantee that you won’t think that eight months down the road when you need to modify it.
