The reason behind these slides: At our college, we planned in an embedded system course that our students can use the Tessel platform[1] to do quick prototyping on various project ideas, but most of them only took a lecture on OOP in C++ and had no experience on other programming languages. To help them get ready on hacking on these boards and modules with JavaScript in the first few weeks, I decided I should make a notes on some "special features" in JS in contrast to languages like C++/Java, e.g., first-class anonymous functions, closures, class-free OOP, ... And here is the result.
