So probably a silly question. How does this function know to replace "obj" with whatever object I put in, and replace "checkProp" with whatever property I put in? I'm pretty much just starting and feel like I may have missed something or just forgot. Thanks in advance!

function checkObj(obj, checkProp) {
  if (obj.hasOwnProperty(checkProp)) {
    return obj[checkProp];
  }
  else {
    return "Not Found";
  }
  return "Change Me!";
}

  • Function parameters are like variables that get assigned the corresponding arguments’ values when the function is called. That’s a fundamental part to how functions work. – Sebastian Simon Oct 18 '22 at 22:52
