javascript constructor and prototype


//Define the object specific properties inside the constructor
function Human(name, age){
	this.name = name,
	this.age = age,
	this.friends = ["Ali", "Shehzad"]
}
//Define the shared properties and methods using the prototype
Human.prototype.sayName = function(){
	console.log(this.name);
}
//Create two objects using the Human constructor function
var person1 = new Human("Mohtashim", 31);
var person2 = new Human("Fasih", 40);

//Lets check if person1 and person2 have points to the same instance of the sayName function
console.log(person1.sayName === person2.sayName) // true

//Let's modify friends property and check
person1.friends.push("Fasih");

console.log(person1.friends)// Output: "Ali, Shehzad, Fasih"
console.log(person2.friends)//Output: "Ali, Shehzad"
