POO en JS -

## class expression:
const Person = class {
}

## class declaration:
class Person {
  constructor(fName, bYear){
   this.fName = fName;
   this.bYear = bYear;
  }
  calcAge(){
   console.log(2024 - this.bYear);
  }
}

- constructor is a method of this class. Pass values for properties to have in objects created using this fn.
- then set the properties of the object using this.xxx = xxx;
- On using 'new' operator, this constructor will be called automatically and return a new object which will be stored in LHS variable as shown below.
Ex. const ronald = new Person('ronald',1975); // Person { fName: 'ronald', bYear: 1975 }
- Methods are written outside the constructor fn and will be added to the prototype property of the object which can be verified using devConsole.
Ex. ronald.calcAge(); // 49

ronald.__proto__ === Person.prototype; // true

- No commas need to be added while adding multiple methods below the constructor fn inside the class.

## Hence, the above syntax works same as constructor fn syntax but with a familiar syntax of strongly typed class based languages.

## Adding a fn explicitly to the prototype:
Person.prototype.greet = function(){
console.log(`Hey ${this.fName}`);
}
ronald.greet(); // 'Hey ronald'

const account = {
  owner: 'jonas',
  movements: [200,300,100,500],
  get latest(){
    // will return an array with last value. Hence, use pop to get the value.
    return this.movements.slice(-1).pop();
  },
  set latest(mov){
    this.movements.push(mov);
  }
}

account.latest; // 500
account.latest = 50; 
account.latest; // 50

Just like above, classes also support the getter-setter methods but acccessed like using a property syntax.

These are very useful for data validation.

// Static methods are not inherited. They are not added to prototype.
className.fnName = function(){
  console.log(this); // Entire constructor() which is calling the method
  console.log("JS is awesome")
};
className.fnName();

// Rule =  whatever object is calling the method, 'this' points to that object inside the fn. Hence its simply the entire constructor() above.

//Inside class, we need to use static keyword for adding a static method.
static fnName = function(){
  console.log(this); // can point to the entire class defn
  console.log("JS is awesome")
};

// Static methods and instance methods will be different from each other.
// instance methods will be prototype, hence all instances can have access to them

const PersonProto = {
  // This method will be looked up using __proto__ link
  calcAge(){
    console.log(2024 - this.bYear);
  }
};

// baba will be created, with its prototype set to PersonProto object.
const baba = Object.create(PersonProto);
baba;

baba.name = 'Roger';
baba.bYear = '2000';
baba.calcAge();

const PersonProto = {
  // This method will be looked up using __proto__ link
  calcAge(){
    console.log(2024 - this.bYear);
  },
  // Noting special with init name, its a normal fn here.
  // This has nothing to with ES6 constructor()
  // Manual way of initialzing an object.
  init(fName, bYear){
    this.fName = fName;
    this.bYear = bYear;
  }
};

// baba will be created, with its prototype set to PersonProto object.
const baba = Object.create(PersonProto);
baba;

baba.name = 'Roger';
baba.bYear = '2000';
baba.calcAge();

baba.__proto__;    // { calcAge: [Function: calcAge] }

  // We want to set the 'this' inside this fn to be same as inside Person above.
