Question

In client side javascript, whats the difference b/w

$(function(){
   ....
});

and

function myFunc() {
   ...
}

(Could not find relevant tutorials on Google)

Answer 1

The first is a DOM ready handler function used in jQuery (a JavaScript library). It is executed when the DOM is fully loaded. Whereas, the second is a simply defined function with name myFunc.
