What is the difference between hoisting and the temporal dead zone in JavaScript?
Hoisting is JavaScript's behavior of moving declarations to the top of their containing scope, while the temporal dead zone (TDZ) refers to the period where a variable is in scope but not yet initialized.
Can you give me an example of hoisting?
Sure! For instance, if you declare a variable using var
and then try to use it before its declaration, it will be undefined
instead of throwing an error.
What about the temporal dead zone?
The TDZ occurs with let
and const
declarations. If you try to access a variable before its declaration, it will throw a ReferenceError.
How can I avoid issues with hoisting and TDZ?
To avoid issues, always declare your variables at the top of their scope and initialize them before use.
