ARIA: button role - Accessibility
if the attribute is omitted or set to its default value of aria-pressed="undefined", the element does not support being pressed.
... if the button has aria-expanded="false" set, the grouping is not currently expanded; if the button has aria-expanded="true" set, it is currently expanded; if the button has aria-expanded="undefined" set or the attribute is ommitted, it is not expandable.
... whether an element is a toggle button or not can be indicated with the aria-pressed attribute in addition to the button role (if the element is not already a native button element): if aria-pressed is not used, or is set to the "undefined" state, the button is not a toggle button.
...this attribute has one of four possible values: true, false, mixed, undefined examples basic button example in this example, a span element has been given the button role.

Indexed collections - JavaScript
note that the elements of an array that are omitted when the array is defined are not listed when iterating by foreach, but are listed when undefined has been manually assigned to the element: let array = ['first', 'second', , 'fourth'] array.foreach(function(element) { console.log(element) }) // first // second // fourth if (array[2] === undefined) { console.log('array[2] is undefined') // true } array = ['first', 'second', undefined, 'fourth'] array.foreach(function(element) { console.log(element) }) // first // second // undefin...
...if not provided, as with other cases where a function is invoked outside of an explicit object context, this will refer to the global object (window) when using arrow function as callback, or undefined when using normal function as callback.
... let a = ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'a', 'b'] console.log(a.lastindexof('b')) // logs 5 // now try again, starting from before the last match console.log(a.lastindexof('b', 4)) // logs 1 console.log(a.lastindexof('z')) // logs -1 foreach(callback[, thisobject]) executes callback on every array item and returns undefined.

Functions - JavaScript
for all other functions, the default return value is undefined.
... function parameters default parameters default function parameters allow formal parameters to be initialized with default values if no value or undefined is passed.
...attempting to use it outside the function's body results in an error (or undefined if the function name was previously declared via a var statement).

... array.prototype.find() returns the found element in the array, if some element in the array satisfies the testing function, or undefined if not found.
Error.prototype.toString() - JavaScript
its semantics are as follows (assuming object and string have their original values): error.prototype.tostring = function() { 'use strict'; var obj = object(this); if (obj !== this) { throw new typeerror(); } var name = this.name; name = (name === undefined) ?
... 'error' : string(name); var msg = this.message; msg = (msg === undefined) ?

Function.prototype.apply() - JavaScript
note that this may not be the actual value seen by the method: if the method is a function in non-strict mode code, null and undefined will be replaced with the global object, and primitive values will be boxed.
... argsarray optional an array-like object, specifying the arguments with which func should be called, or null or undefined if no arguments should be provided to the function.
... note: when the first argument is undefined or null a similar outcome can be achieved using the array spread syntax.
Function.prototype.call() - JavaScript

String.prototype.indexOf() - JavaScript
if no string is explicitly provided, searchvalue will be coerced to "undefined", and this value will be searched for in str.
... so, for example: 'undefined'.indexof() will return 0, as undefined is found at position 0 in the string undefined.
... 'undefine'.indexof() however will return -1, as undefined is not found in the string undefine.
TypedArray.prototype.findIndex() - JavaScript

Array.of() - JavaScript
the difference between array.of() and the array constructor is in the handling of integer arguments: array.of(7) creates an array with a single element, 7, whereas array(7) creates an empty array with a length property of 7 (note: this implies an array of 7 empty slots, not slots with actual undefined values).
... if (!array.of) { array.of = function() { return array.prototype.slice.call(arguments); // or let vals = []; for(let prop in arguments){ vals.push(arguments[prop]); } return vals; } } examples using array.of array.of(1); // [1] array.of(1, 2, 3); // [1, 2, 3] array.of(undefined); // [undefined] specifications specification ecmascript (ecma-262)the definition of 'array.of' in that specification.

...possible values are: "long" (e.g., british summer time) "short" (e.g., gmt+1) the default value for each date-time component property is undefined, but if all component properties are undefined, then year, month, and day are assumed to be "numeric".
Intl.DateTimeFormat.prototype.resolvedOptions() - JavaScript
timezone the value provided for this property in the options argument; undefined (representing the runtime's default time zone) if none was provided.
... warning: applications should not rely on undefined being returned, as future versions may return a string value identifying the runtime’s default time zone instead.
Intl - JavaScript

...if the reviver function returns undefined (or returns no value, for example, if execution falls off the end of the function), the property is deleted from the object.
JSON - JavaScript
consider this example where json.parse() parses the string as json and eval executes the string as javascript: let code = '"\u2028\u2029"' json.parse(code) // evaluates to "\u2028\u2029" in all engines eval(code) // throws a syntaxerror in old engines other differences include allowing only double-quoted strings and having no provisions for undefined or comments.

Object.prototype.hasOwnProperty() - JavaScript
note hasownproperty returns true even if the value of the property is null or undefined.
... o = new object(); o.propone = null; o.hasownproperty('propone'); // returns true o.proptwo = undefined; o.hasownproperty('proptwo'); // returns true examples using hasownproperty to test for a property's existence the following example determines whether the o object contains a property named prop: o = new object(); o.hasownproperty('prop'); // returns false o.prop = 'exists'; o.hasownproperty('prop'); // returns true direct vs.
Object.prototype.toString() - JavaScript
the following code illustrates this: const o = new object(); o.tostring(); // returns [object object] note: starting in javascript 1.8.5, tostring() called on null returns [object null], and undefined returns [object undefined], as defined in the 5th edition of ecmascript and subsequent errata.
... const tostring = object.prototype.tostring; tostring.call(new date); // [object date] tostring.call(new string); // [object string] tostring.call(math); // [object math] // since javascript 1.8.5 tostring.call(undefined); // [object undefined] tostring.call(null); // [object null] using tostring() in this way is unreliable; objects can change the behavior of object.prototype.tostring() by defining a symbol.tostringtag property, leading to unexpected results.
Promise.prototype.finally() - JavaScript
so for example: unlike promise.resolve(2).then(() => {}, () => {}) (which will be resolved with undefined), promise.resolve(2).finally(() => {}) will be resolved with 2.
... similarly, unlike promise.reject(3).then(() => {}, () => {}) (which will be fulfilled with undefined), promise.reject(3).finally(() => {}) will be rejected with 3.
Comparing Reflect and Object methods - JavaScript
getownpropertydescriptor() object.getownpropertydescriptor() returns a property descriptor of the given property if it exists on the object argument passed in, and returns undefined if it does not exist.
...returns undefined if it does not exist, and a typeerror if anything other than an object (a primitive) is passed in as the first argument.
Reflect.apply() - JavaScript
function.prototype.apply.call(math.floor, undefined, [1.75]); with reflect.apply() this becomes less verbose and easier to understand.

Reflect.construct() - JavaScript
when using object.create() and function.prototype.apply(), the new.target operator will point to undefined within the function used as the constructor, since the new keyword is not being used to create the object.

Symbol.keyFor() - JavaScript
return value a string representing the key for the given symbol if one is found on the global registry; otherwise, undefined.

TypedArray.prototype.map() - JavaScript
mapfn is invoked only for indexes of the typed array which have assigned values; it is not invoked for indexes that are undefined, those which have been deleted, or which have never been assigned values.
...otherwise, the value undefined will be passed for use as its this value.
TypedArray - JavaScript
typedarray.prototype.find() returns the found value in the array, if an element in the array satisfies the provided testing function, or undefined if not found.

WeakRef.prototype.deref() - JavaScript
the deref method returns the weakref instance's target object, or undefined if the target object has been garbage-collected.
... syntax obj = ref.deref(); return value the target object of the weakref, or undefined if the object has been garbage-collected.
globalThis - JavaScript
the this keyword could be used inside functions running in non–strict mode, but this will be undefined in modules and inside functions running in strict mode.
...however, this causes csp violations in some settings, so es6-shim uses a check like this, for example: var getglobal = function () { if (typeof self !== 'undefined') { return self; } if (typeof window !== 'undefined') { return window; } if (typeof global !== 'undefined') { return global; } throw new error('unable to locate global object'); }; var globals = getglobal(); if (typeof globals.settimeout !== 'function') { // no settimeout in this environment!

parseInt() - JavaScript
if radix is undefined, 0, or unspecified, javascript assumes the following: if the input string begins with "0x" or "0x" (a zero, followed by lowercase or uppercase x), radix is assumed to be 16 and the rest of the string is parsed as a hexidecimal number.
...if radix is undefined or 0, it is assumed to be 10 except when the number begins with the character pairs 0x or 0x, in which case a radix of 16 is assumed.
Iteration protocols - JavaScript
if a non-object value gets returned (such as false or undefined), a typeerror ("iterator.next() returned a non-object value") will be thrown.
...e.log(typeof somestring[symbol.iterator]); // "function" string's default iterator returns the string's code points one by one: let iterator = somestring[symbol.iterator](); console.log(iterator + ''); // "[object string iterator]" console.log(iterator.next()); // { value: "h", done: false } console.log(iterator.next()); // { value: "i", done: false } console.log(iterator.next()); // { value: undefined, done: true } some built-in constructs—such as the spread syntax—use the same iteration protocol under the hood: console.log([...somestring]); // ["h", "i"] you can redefine the iteration behavior by supplying our own @@iterator: // need to construct a string object explicitly to avoid auto-boxing let somestring = new string('hi'); somestring[symbol.iterator] = function () { return { ...

async function - JavaScript
for example: async function foo() { await 1 } ...is equivalent to: function foo() { return promise.resolve(1).then(() => undefined) } code after each await expression can be thought of as existing in a .then callback.
...the default return value of undefined is returned as the resolution value of the current promise.
return - JavaScript
if omitted, undefined is returned instead.
... function square(x) { return x * x; } var demo = square(3); // demo will equal 9 if the value is omitted, undefined is returned instead.
Transitioning to strict mode - JavaScript
in strict mode, it is now undefined.
... when a function was called with call or apply, if the value was a primitive value, this one was boxed into an object (or the global object for undefined and null).

ferent, use the strict inequality operator instead: 3 !== "3"; // true examples comparison with no type conversion 1 != 2; // true "hello" != "hola"; // true 1 != 1; // false "hello" != "hello"; // false comparison with type conversion "1" != 1; // false 1 != "1"; // false 0 != false; // false 0 != null; // true 0 != undefined; // true 0 != !!null; // false, look at logical not operator 0 != !!undefined; // false, look at logical not operator null != undefined; // false const number1 = new number(3); const number2 = new number(3); number1 != 3; // false number1 != number2; // true comparison of objects const object1 = {"key": "value"} const object2 = {"key": "value"}; object1 != obje...
Less than or equal (<=) - JavaScript

Logical AND (&&) - JavaScript
examples of expressions that can be converted to false are: null; nan; 0; empty string ("" or '' or ``); undefined.
Logical NOT (!) - JavaScript
examples of expressions that can be converted to false are: null; nan; 0; empty string ("" or '' or ``); undefined.
Logical OR assignment (||=) - JavaScript
if an empty string is returned (a falsy value), ||= must be used, otherwise you want to use the ??= operator (for null or undefined return values).
Operator precedence - JavaScript
(b || c); // evaluate `a` first, then produce `a` if `a` is not `null` and not `undefined` a?.b.c; // evaluate `a` first, then produce `undefined` if `a` is `null` or `undefined` examples 3 > 2 && 2 > 1 // returns true 3 > 2 > 1 // returns false because 3 > 2 is true, then true is converted to 1 // in inequality operators, therefore true > 1 becomes 1 > 1, which // is false.
Strict inequality (!==) - JavaScript
o" !== "hola"); // true console.log(3 !== 3); // false console.log(3 !== 4); // true console.log(true !== true); // false console.log(true !== false); // true console.log(null !== null); // false comparing operands of different types console.log("3" !== 3); // true console.log(true !== 1); // true console.log(null !== undefined); // true comparing objects const object1 = { name: "hello" } const object2 = { name: "hello" } console.log(object1 !== object2); // true console.log(object1 !== object1); // false specifications specification ecmascript (ecma-262)the definition of 'equality operators' in that specification.
await - JavaScript
var response = await promisedfunction().catch((err) => { console.error(err); }); // response will be undefined if the promise is rejected specifications specification ecmascript (ecma-262)the definition of 'async functions' in that specification.
instanceof - JavaScript
however, objects created with the object literal notation are an exception here: although the prototype is undefined, instanceof object returns true.
new operator - JavaScript
function car() {} car1 = new car(); car2 = new car(); console.log(car1.color); // undefined car.prototype.color = 'original color'; console.log(car1.color); // 'original color' car1.color = 'black'; console.log(car1.color); // 'black' console.log(object.getprototypeof(car1).color); // 'original color' console.log(object.getprototypeof(car2).color); // 'original color' console.log(car1.color); // 'black' console.log(car2.color); // 'original color' if you didn't write the...
break - JavaScript
function testbreak(x) { var i = 0; while (i < 6) { if (i == 3) { (function() { break; })(); } i += 1; } return i * x; } testbreak(1); // syntaxerror: illegal break statement block_1: { console.log('1'); ( function() { break block_1; // syntaxerror: undefined label 'block_1' })(); } specifications specification ecmascript (ecma-262)the definition of 'break statement' in that specification.
for...of - JavaScript
} iterating over other iterable objects you can also iterate over an object that explicitly implements the iterable protocol: const iterable = { [symbol.iterator]() { return { i: 0, next() { if (this.i < 3) { return { value: this.i++, done: false }; } return { value: undefined, done: true }; } }; } }; for (const value of iterable) { console.log(value); } // 0 // 1 // 2 difference between for...of and for...in both for...in and for...of statements iterate over something.
if...else - JavaScript
any value that is not false, undefined, null, 0, -0, nan, or the empty string (""), and any object, including a boolean object whose value is false, is considered truthy when used as the condition.
throw - JavaScript
function userexception(message) { this.message = message; this.name = 'userexception'; } function getmonthname(mo) { mo = mo - 1; // adjust month number for array index (1 = jan, 12 = dec) var months = ['jan', 'feb', 'mar', 'apr', 'may', 'jun', 'jul', 'aug', 'sep', 'oct', 'nov', 'dec']; if (months[mo] !== undefined) { return months[mo]; } else { throw new userexception('invalidmonthno'); } } try { // statements to try var mymonth = 15; // 15 is out of bound to raise the exception var monthname = getmonthname(mymonth); } catch (e) { monthname = 'unknown'; console.error(e.message, e.name); // pass exception object to err handler } another example of throwing an object the ...
Template literals (Template strings) - JavaScript
they will show up as undefined element in the “cooked” array: function latex(str) { return { "cooked": str[0], "raw": str.raw[0] } } latex`\unicode` // { cooked: undefined, raw: "\\unicode" } note that the escape sequence restriction is only dropped from tagged templates—not from untagged template literals: let bad = `bad escape sequence: \unicode`; specifications specification ecmascript (...
