Object Methods in JavaScript

What Are Object Methods?

• Methods are functions that are stored as properties inside objects.

• They define behavior or actions that an object can perform.

Defining Methods in Objects

1. Using Function Expressions

const person = {  name: "Alice",  greet: function() {    console.log("Hello, " + this.name);  }};person.greet();  // Output: Hello, Alice

2. Using ES6 Shorthand Method Syntax

const person = {  name: "Alice",  greet() {    console.log("Hello, " + this.name);  }};person.greet();  // Output: Hello, Alice

Using this Keyword

• Inside a method, this refers to the object that called the method.

const car = {  brand: "Toyota",  showBrand() {    console.log("Brand: " + this.brand);  }};car.showBrand(); // Brand: Toyota

Example with Parameters

const calculator = {  add(a, b) {    return a + b;  },  multiply(a, b) {    return a * b;  }};console.log(calculator.add(2, 3));       // 5console.log(calculator.multiply(4, 5));  // 20
