Question

Is this line creating globals?

var first=second=third=fourth=fifth="Hello, ";

I am not entirely sure how to test it 🙂

Answer 1

first will be declared as a local variable, but the others will be global.

To fix this, try the following:

var first, second, third, fourth, fifth;
first = second = third = fourth = fifth = "Hello, ";

Or all on one line:

var first, second, third, fourth, fifth = fourth = third = second = first = "Hello, ";
