Why say discount is not defined?

In practice 34.2 I get the error that discount is not defined, why? function main() { var prodID = readLine(); var price = parseInt(readLine(),10); var discount = parseInt(readLine(),10); var prod1= new Product(prodID, price); console.log(prod1.prodID + " price: " + prod1.price); prod1.changePrice(discount); console.log(prod1.prodID + " new price: " + prod1.changePrice); } function Product(prodID, price) { this.prodID = prodID; this.price = price; this.discount = discount; this.changePrice = function(){ return this.price - (this.price * (this.discount / 100)) } };

discount is only defined in main, not in Product. This priciple is called scope

You have to define discount outside the main function because it's locally defined in main and the product function has no access to this variable.
