and -> or, methods -> methods I also have a question on the subject of this sentence (should this be a separate discussion entry?): In the "Extending built-in classes" article, in the "No static inheritance in built-ins" subsection, one finds: "But built-in classes are an exception. They don’t inherit statics from each other. For example, both Array and Date inherit from Object, so their instances have methods from Object.prototype. But Array.[[Prototype]] does not reference Object, so there’s no Array.keys() and Date.keys() static methods." In the "Extending built-in classes" article, in the "No static inheritance in built-ins" subsection, one finds: "But built-in classes are an exception. They don’t inherit statics from each other. For example, both Array and Date inherit from <code>Object</code>, so their instances have methods from <code>Object.prototype</code>. But <code>Array.[[Prototype]]</code> does not reference <code>Object</code>, so there’s no <code>Array.keys()</code> and <code>Date.keys()</code> static methods." This is a subject of some curiosity for me. Through a little testing, I believe I have found that, in fact <code>Array.[[Prototype]]</code> DOES, however, reference <code>Function.prototype</code>, i.e. <code>Array.__proto__ === Function.prototype</code> (<code>true</code>). (As does <code>Date.[[Prototype]]</code>). Is there someplace where this is explained? (Preferably in a way an intelligent 11-year-old could understand?). |

Structure
Every chapter, article or a task has its folder.
The folder is named like N-url, where N is a number for the sorting purposes and url is the URL part with title of the material.
The type of the material is defined by the file inside the folder:
index.mdstands for a chapterarticle.mdstands for an articletask.mdstands for a task (solution must be provided insolution.mdfile aswell)
Each of these files starts from the # Main header.
It's very easy to add something new.
