Javascript new keyword usage
javascript, new-operator, object
Solution
Without `new`, `this` refers to the global object, and not any object returned from the function.
If you were to execute your code, you'd find that the first `hp` would be `undefined`, whereas the second would be `[object Object]`. Further, for obvious reasons, the first would not have a property of `hardDrive` or `processor`, but the second would.
In the first example, your two properties would have been added to the `window` object.
Problem
Is there a difference between calling a javascript function with or without the new keyword? For instance if I had the function: ``` function computer(){ this.hardDrive = "big"; this.processor = "fast"; } ``` and I then call it in two different ways: ``` var hp = computer(); var hp = new computer(); ``` what is going to be the difference between the two function calls?
