VisualizaçõesJavascript new keyword difference in output
Why do I get 2 different output when I run in Chrome -> DevTools -> Sources and when I run in JSFiddle.
The code which I run is as follows
function foo() {
this.baz = "baz"
console.log(this.bar + " " + baz);
}
var bar = "bar";
var baz = new foo();
console.log(baz.baz)
Output in chrome
undefined [object Object]
baz
Output in JSFiddle
"undefined undefined"
"baz"
Essentially chrome is telling me that baz is an object of type {baz:"baz"} but jsFiddle tells me it is undefined.

Are you sure you did not run the same code on chrome twice?
The first time baz is clearly undefined, but if you paste the same code again it has the value you already defined (var baz = new foo();).

When a standard page with that code on it is run the result is undefined undefined and then baz.
Inside the function, baz refers to the outer variable named baz, which is the instance that's being created (but hasn't been created yet - it'll be created after the foo function returns the instance). So, at that moment, it should be undefined.
But, the console is not like a standard webpage; it'll save previous values assigned to variables when you run it again. You must have run the code more than once - in which case, it's like doing
function foo() {
this.baz = "baz"
console.log(this.bar + " " + baz);
}
var bar = "bar";
var baz = new foo();
console.log(baz.baz)
// you probably cleared the console manually at this point
// before running it again
function foo() {
this.baz = "baz"
console.log(this.bar + " " + baz);
}
var bar = "bar";
var baz = new foo();
console.log(baz.baz)so the [object Object] you see is from a previous run's instance.
