Understanding JavaScript Inheritance with Example [How To]


In the JavaScript, we can implement the Inheritance using the some alternative ways and we can’t define a class keyword but we create a Constructor function and using new keyword achieves it.  

The some Alternative ways As,
1.      Pseudo classical Inheritance
2.      Prototype Inheritance

Pseudo classical Inheritance is the most popular way. In this way, create a constructor function using the new operator and add the members function with the help for constructor function prototype.

The Prototype based programming is a technique of object oriented programming. In this mechanism we can reuse the exiting objects as prototypes. 

The prototype inheritance also known as prototypal, classless or instance based inheritances.


Example as,

// Create a helper function.
if (typeof Object.create !== 'function') {

        Object.create = function (obj) {
            function fun() { };
            fun.prototype = obj;
            return new fun();
        };
}

//This is a parent class.
var parent = {
        sayHi: function () {
            alert('Hi, I am parent!');
        },
        sayHiToWalk: function () {
            alert('Hi, I am parent! and going to walk!');
        }
};

//This is child class and the parent class is inherited in the child class.
var child = Object.create(parent);

child.sayHi = function () {
    alert('Hi, I am a child!');
};


<button type="submit" onclick="child.sayHi()"> click to oops</button>


The output is : Hi, I am a child!

React | Encryption and Decryption Data/Text using CryptoJs

To encrypt and decrypt data, simply use encrypt () and decrypt () function from an instance of crypto-js. Node.js (Install) Requirements: 1.       Node.js 2.       npm (Node.js package manager) 3.       npm install crypto-js npm   install   crypto - js Usage - Step 1 - Import var   CryptoJS  =  require ( "crypto-js" ); Step 2 - Encrypt    // Encrypt    var   ciphertext  =  CryptoJS . AES . encrypt ( JSON . stringify ( data ),  'my-secret-key@123' ). toString (); Step 3 -Decrypt    // Decrypt    var   bytes  =  CryptoJS . AES . decrypt ( ciphertext ,  'my-secret-key@123' );    var   decryptedData  =  JSON . parse ( bytes . toString ( CryptoJS . enc . Utf8 )); As an Example,   import   React   from   'react' ; import   './App.css' ; //Including all libraries, for access to extra methods. var   CryptoJS  =  require ( "crypto-js" ); function   App () {    var   data

Encryption and Decryption Data/Password in Angular

You can use crypto.js to encrypt data. We have used 'crypto-js'.   Follow the below steps, Steps 1 –  Install CryptoJS using below NPM commands in your project directory npm install crypto-js --save npm install @types/crypto-js –save After installing both above commands it looks like  – NPM Command  1 ->   npm install crypto-js --save NPM Command  2 ->   npm install @types/crypto-js --save Steps 2  - Add the script path in “ angular.json ” file. "scripts" : [                "../node_modules/crypto-js/crypto-js.js"               ] Steps 3 –  Create a service class “ EncrDecrService ” for  encrypts and decrypts get/set methods . Import “ CryptoJS ” in the service for using  encrypt and decrypt get/set methods . import  {  Injectable  }  from   '@angular/core' ; import   *   as   CryptoJS   from   'crypto-js' ; @ Injectable ({    providedIn:   'root' }) export   class   EncrDecrS
