What are some common scope errors in JavaScript?

Common scope errors in JavaScript include using variables before they are declared, and misunderstanding block scope with 'let' and 'const'.

Can you give me an example of a variable being used before it's declared?

Sure! For instance, if you try to log a variable before declaring it, like this: console.log(x); var x = 5;, it will log 'undefined' instead of throwing an error.

What about block scope? How does it work with 'let' and 'const'?

Block scope means that variables declared with 'let' and 'const' are only accessible within the block they are defined in. For example, in an if statement, they won't be accessible outside of that block.

Are there any tools to help identify these scope errors?

Yes! Tools like ESLint can help identify scope-related issues in your code by analyzing it for potential errors.
