JavaScript (sometimes abbreviated as JS) is a scripting language commonly implemented as part of a web browser in order to create enhanced user interfaces and dynamic websites.

JavaScript is a prototype-based scripting language that is dynamic, weakly typed and has first-class functions. It uses syntax influenced by the language C. JavaScript copies many names and naming conventions from Java, but the two languages are otherwise unrelated and have very different semantics. The key design principles within JavaScript are taken from the Self and Scheme programming languages. It is a multi-paradigm language, supporting object-oriented, imperative, and functional programming styles.

JavaScript's use in applications outside web pages — for example in PDF documents, site-specific browsers, and desktop widgets—is also significant. Newer and faster JavaScript VMs and frameworks built upon them (notably Node.js) have also increased the popularity of JavaScript for server-side web applications.

JavaScript was formalized in the ECMAScript language standard and is primarily used in the form of client-side JavaScript (as part of a web browser). This enables programmatic access to computational objects within a host environment.

// object

var userObj= {
username: 'username',
password: 'password'
}

// print

alert(userObj.toSource());

// or
for(attr in userObj){
alert(attr+ '= '+ userObj[attr]);
}

console.log(userObj);
