What am I doing wrong???

Question

function person(name, age, job, car) {
this.name=name;
this.age=age;
this.job=job;
this.car=car;
this.dob=function (age){
return(2016-this.age);
}

Dob thing is not working at all.... It prints the whole function...

Answer 1

Call the function

Answer 2

no need to pass age parameter inside dob method

function person(name, age, job, car) {
this.name=name;
this.age=age;
this.job=job;
this.car=car;
this.dob=function (){
return(2016-this.age);
}
}

var p=new person(1,2,3,4);
alert(p.dob())

Answer 3

Var person = new Person(1,2,3,4);
Person.myFuntion()

Answer 4

you need to call function as below
var p=new person(1,2,3,4)
p.dob() // this will return the age

Answer 5

I guess objectname.dob does that only

Answer 6

@cem but the function returns the answer to the Dob property.... So person.dob should also work huh?? Should I use
function (this.age){.........}

Answer 7

@sachin it is now just printing NaN

Answer 8

@chitrarth this giving me right answer

function person(name, age, job, car) {
this.name=name;
this.age=age;
this.job=job;
this.car=car;
this.dob=function (age){
return(2016-this.age);
}
}

var p=new person(1,2,3,4);
alert(p.dob())

Answer 9

@sachin I have tried the same..... But it shows NaN.... But when I define the function after the object constructor it works fine.... Wtf right?? BTW iam using sublimetext

Answer 10

read first idea

Answer 11

yeah ok

Answer 12

It works:

function person(name,age){
this.name=name;
this.age=age;
this.yearOfBirth=yearBorn;
}

function yearBorn(){
return 2016-this.age;
}

var p1 = new person("Eugene",35);
yearBorn();

document.write(p1.name," is ",p1.age," y.o.<br/> He was born in ",p1.yearOfBirth()," year.<br/>");

Answer 13

at least in your code here, you're missing a } at the end of your code.

Answer 14

Call the function after the first argument
