What is the difference between .onclick and .addEventListener("click", function())?

New to javascript and I find myself often trying one before realizing the other one is what I need, are they not doing the same thing?

Here are what I found for your questions: addEventListner:

Can add multiple events to a particular element.
Can take a third argument that can control the event propagation.
Can only be added within elements or in external JavaScript file.

On the other hand - onclick:

Can add only a single event to an element, and it is basically a property, so gets overwritten.
Event propagation cannot be controlled by onclick.
Can be added as an HTML attribute also.
