jQuery syntax: function inside parentheses after dollar sign
jquery
Solution
`$(function(){...})` is a shortcut for
$(document).ready(function(){...});
See the API docs
http://api.jquery.com/ready/
- `$(document).ready(handler)`
- `$().ready(handler) (this is not recommended)`
- `$(handler)`
Problem
I have seen a syntax where one puts a function inside parentheses which follow a dollar sign like this: ``` $(function(){...}); ``` What does this mean in jQuery? What does the function do?
