JavaScript Function Examples

Last Updated : 1 Dec, 2025

JavaScript functions are reusable blocks of code designed to perform a specific task. They help organize your program, reduce repetition, and make your code easier to read and maintain.

  • A function is defined using the function keyword or arrow (=>) syntax.
  • Functions accept parameters as input and return results using return.
  • Functions run only when they are called (invoked) in your code.
