There will be nothing variable about your computer science skills after this lesson! This video from Learn to Program's JavaScript series teaches you how to use variables in computer programming. Discover the var statement, and hear why it's useful for setting your variable scope. Assign a variable by declaring and initializing it... then reassign your variable! This lesson also covers assignment operators, output values, and common errors like forgetting to place quotes around variable strings.
Assignment:
Did you know that you can program JavaScript that alters HTML? Underlying AJAX, a powerful web development technique that makes websites like Google Maps and Kayak possible, is JavaScript’s ability to access and edit HTML. Use the getElementById function and the innerHTML property in this tutorial by Learn to Program; your HTML and JavaScript will be functioning together in no time!

Why do the math when you can program your computer to do it for you? This lesson from Learn to Program's Java Script series teaches about operators by exploring basic mathematical operators like division and subtraction. Declare your variables, and learn how the plus sign functions as both the addition operation and a concatenation symbol. Learn about the modus, PostFix, PreFix, and increments. This demonstration uses Komodo, but the lesson can apply to any Java Script development environment.
Assignment:
For processing lots of data, for loops can be a great way to repeat operations on any number of objects, and knowing when and how to use a for loop is a fundamental concept in programming. In this lesson from Learn to Program, you’ll discover the three main statements that control for loops: initialization, the iterator and the counter. Mark Lassoff demonstrates how to implement a for loop in JavaScript, and equally important, how to avoid endless loops and resulting browser crashes.
Assignment:
Confused by document objects in JavaScript? Document objects come with lots of powerful properties and functions that you will want to use as your programming knowledge expands. In this tutorial by Learn to Program, you will learn a basic function, getElementById, which allows you to retrieve any element from the HTML portion of your document; you will also learn one of its properties, style, which accesses the CSS of any element.
Assignment:
Want to repeat the same JavaScript code over and over? In this lesson from Learn to Program's JavaScript series, learn how to use while loops and do while loops, which execute repeatedly so long as certain conditions are true. See how to establish the loop and set those conditions. While loops are perfect for when you need your code to respond to multiple user inputs, or if you need it to read an XML document.
Assignment:
Boot up your inner techie by exploring conditional "if" statements in JavaScript! In this lesson from Learn to Program's JavaScript series, learn how to train your program to evaluate and respond to conditions using "if" statements. This lesson covers comparison (such as equivalency of value and/or type, greater than, or less than), logical operators (such as and/or), and bullion variables (true/false statements).
Assignment:
If you've got the hang of "if" conditional statements in JavaScript programming, then it must be time to tackle "else" and "else if" statements! In this lesson from Lean to Program's JavaScript series, Mark Lassoff explains how to design a program that will run several tests, executing one program or another depending upon the variable entered. The lesson also explains short circuit evaluation.
Assignment:
Programming a website and want to execute a specific action or command more than once? In this first of three parts on functions from Learn To Program's JavaScript series, learn how to create a function, which is a block of reusable code you can call in your html.
