How hoisting works when function and variable have same name

How is the output for below snippets - function.

console.log(typeof foo);

function foo() {
  return "bar";
}
var foo = "bar";
function foo() {
  return "bar";
}
var foo;

console.log(typeof foo);

Shouldn't it be undefined due to var foo?

var foo redundantly declares the variable and doesn't assign anything to it.

It doesn't explicitly assign undefined so it doesn't overwrite the existing function value with undefined.
