How to create a function with a dynamic name? Something like:

function create_function(name){
   new Function(name, 'console.log("hello world")');
}
create_function('example');
example(); // --> 'hello world'

    window.example = function () { alert('hello world') }
    example();
    

    or

    name = 'example';
    window[name] = function () { ... }
    ...
    

    or

    window[name] = new Function('alert("hello world")')
