Passing parameter to function when it is assigned to an object

Question

is it possible to pass a parameter to function when it is assigned to an object?
eg:
function person(name, age) {
this.name= name;
this.age = age;
this.yearOfBirth = bornYear;
}
function bornYear(parameter) {
return 2016 - this.age;
}

if yes, how to access it?

Answer 1

I'm not sure I fully understand your question but if you want to add a method that accepts parameters, to an object you can follow the example below.

function myObj(name){
this.name= name;
}

myObj.prototype.getYearOfBirth = function(param){
var operation = 2017 - param;
return operation;
}

var person = new myObj("seamiki");
alert(person.name + " was born in " + person.getYearOfBirth(60));
