JavaScript Closures

In this video we'll learn about JavaScript closures. We'll start by reviewing some of the properties that functions in JavaScript have and then we'll start working on two examples.

First example is going to show us that we can access global variables (declared outside function's body) in our function and that itself is a simplest example of a closure.

Second example is going to show us how we can use closures and leverage their powers. We're going to be able to protect/hide some data and only expose the functionality that we want. We are also going to use some real world example problem that should hopefully make a ton of sense for you!

Note: I did upload it and then took it down because audio setting was rather low, hence me re-uploading it again.

Amazing video! Thank you so much man... Best explanation of this concept...

Great stuff, CodeWorkr.
Prototypal inheritance is another concept that can be a bit tough to wrap one's head around.

Just a question, in 03_solution.js, at 32:00, you add voteDogs() 2 times and "Dogs current Votes" output 1 and after 2, but in voteDogs function dogsVotes variable is initalizing to 0 every time the function is called so why this variable is incremented, but not return 1 all the time ?
