Those I think is essential in order to understand JavaScript.

- rfrey 6y agoI didn’t downvote, but calling people out for not reading the article — even if it seems blindingly true — is against HN rules and always gets downvoted.

I would be highly surprised if it did not even mention those javascript basics. A brief look at its table of contents shows that indeed it mentions those, and I am baffled why the other commentor is getting downvoted for calling you out.
