Does anyone know the steps to Create a Shape constructor function that has a height and width property. Include a method that will calculate the area of the shape, where area is defined as the shape's height multiplied by its width.

This is a homework question, right?

 

Do you know what a constructor function is? And a method?

I am looking for a tutorial that can help me navigate this new coding language as I have a hard time articulating what needs to be done.

That's why I asked for steps, not answers.

[rissa146]

function myFunct(x,y){

this.x ; 100;

this.y 100

return x *y;

}

 

// to call the function write MyFunct(5,2)

If you're taking a course then you probably should check some of your course material for the answer. If you're not taking a course then where did you find this problem?

 

Your first answer would solve the constructor problem if the syntax was correct, but you have not created a method that returns the area. It would also be better to give a meaningful name to your object rather than "myFunct"

Yes, I too am curious. Where are these questions coming from and what tutorials have you looked at?
