Question

Why is myPerson.age undefined?

function Person() {
  var age = 28;
}

var myPerson = new Person();

console.log(myPerson.age);

I have clearly set what the varaible is in the Person function construtor which should be pointed to by the .prototype of myPerson, no?

Answer 1

Try this:

function Person(){

    this.age = 28;

}


$(document).ready(function(){


  var myPerson = new Person();

  console.log(myPerson.age);


});
