JavaScript Methods Worksheet

Question 1

How is a method different from a regular function in JavaScript?

A regular function stands alone, but a method is a function that belongs to an object and is used to work with that object's data.

Question 2

Why would we want to add methods to an object?

We add methods so the object can perform actions related to its own data. Methods keep data and behavior organized together.

We access it using the keyword this, like this: this.propertyName.
