Remember functions?
Functions can be assigned to an object property, and in this case they are called methods.
In this example, the start property has a function assigned:
const car = {
start: function () {
console.log("Car engine started")
},
}
We can call this method by using the dot syntax we used for properties, with the parentheses at the end:
car.start()
Methods can accept parameters, just like regular functions:
const car = {
brand: "Ford",
model: "Fiesta",
goTo: function (destination) {
console.log(`Going to ${destination}`)
},
}
car.goTo("Rome")
// Going to Rome
and they can return values.
