Jslint will call out errors if functions are defined out of order.
Obviously jslint is strict, but I wonder if there are any benefits to putting functions in order.
By that I mean defining them before they are called.
If you define function before calling it, the code can be handled by one pass compiler, otherwise, you need a multi-pass compiler (which is slower in general).
Maybe there are some one pass JavaScript compilers out there (however, I don’t know any).
I always think JSLint shows that error because it wants to make sure your code can run in a one pass compiler successfully
