Question

I am trying to get the default values to use under a method. It seems like Model.get() cannot be used within the method itself. I have tried the two console.log, which displays the variable is not defined.

define(['jquery', 'Underscore', 'Backbone'], function($, _, Backbone){
    var Game = Backbone.Model.extend({
        //default values for the function
        defaults: {
            rows : 9,
            cols : 8,
            baseScore : 100, 
            numBlockTypes : 6, 
            baseLevelTimer : 60000,
            baseLevelScore : 1500,
            baseLevelExp : 1.05, 
        },
        initialize: function(){
            console.log(this.get(numBlockTypes));
            //console.log(numBlockTypes);
        }
    }),

    game = new Game;

    return game;
});

Both @Elvis D’Souza and I came up with the same answer at the same time.

Need quotes

console.log(this.get('numBlockTypes'));
