Javascript中的所有对象都实现为哈希表，因此它们的属性可以通过索引器访问，反之亦然。此外，你可以使用for/in操作符枚举所有属性:

var x = {a: 0};
x["a"]; //returns 0

x["b"] = 1;
x.b; //returns 1

for (p in x) document.write(p+";"); //writes "a;b;"

大多数时候可以使用对象而不是开关。

function getInnerText(o){
    return o === null? null : {
        string: o,
        array: o.map(getInnerText).join(""),
        object:getInnerText(o["childNodes"])
    }[typeis(o)];
}

更新:如果你担心提前评估的情况是低效的(为什么你在程序设计的早期就担心效率??)，那么你可以这样做:

function getInnerText(o){
    return o === null? null : {
        string: function() { return o;},
        array: function() { return o.map(getInnerText).join(""); },
        object: function () { return getInnerText(o["childNodes"]; ) }
    }[typeis(o)]();
}

这比输入(或读取)开关或对象更麻烦，但它保留了使用对象而不是开关的好处，详情见下面的评论部分。这种风格还使它在足够成熟后更直接地旋转成一个适当的“类”。

update2:带有ES的建议语法扩展。接下来，这变成了

let getInnerText = o -> ({
    string: o -> o,
    array: o -> o.map(getInnerText).join(""),
    object: o -> getInnerText(o["childNodes"])
}[ typeis o ] || (->null) )(o);

私有方法

对象可以有私有方法。

function Person(firstName, lastName) {
    this.firstName = firstName;
    this.lastName = lastName;

    // A private method only visible from within this constructor
    function calcFullName() {
       return firstName + " " + lastName;    
    }

    // A public method available to everyone
    this.sayHello = function () {
        alert(calcFullName());
    }
}

//Usage:
var person1 = new Person("Bob", "Loblaw");
person1.sayHello();

// This fails since the method is not visible from this scope
alert(person1.calcFullName());

生成器和迭代器(仅适用于Firefox 2+和Safari)。

function fib() {
  var i = 0, j = 1;
  while (true) {
    yield i;
    var t = i;
    i = j;
    j += t;
  }
}

var g = fib();
for (var i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
  document.write(g.next() + "<br>\n");
}

The function containing the yield keyword is a generator. When you call it, its formal parameters are bound to actual arguments, but its body isn't actually evaluated. Instead, a generator-iterator is returned. Each call to the generator-iterator's next() method performs another pass through the iterative algorithm. Each step's value is the value specified by the yield keyword. Think of yield as the generator-iterator version of return, indicating the boundary between each iteration of the algorithm. Each time you call next(), the generator code resumes from the statement following the yield. In normal usage, iterator objects are "invisible"; you won't need to operate on them explicitly, but will instead use JavaScript's for...in and for each...in statements to loop naturally over the keys and/or values of objects.

var objectWithIterator = getObjectSomehow();

for (var i in objectWithIterator)
{
  document.write(objectWithIterator[i] + "<br>\n");
}

可以使用[]而不是。

这允许您查找与变量匹配的属性。

obj = {a:"test"};
var propname = "a";
var b = obj[propname];  // "test"

您还可以使用此命令获取/设置名称不是合法标识符的对象属性。

obj["class"] = "test";  // class is a reserved word; obj.class would be illegal.
obj["two words"] = "test2"; // using dot operator not possible with the space.

有些人不知道这一点，最终像这样使用eval()，这是一个非常糟糕的主意:

var propname = "a";
var a = eval("obj." + propname);

这更难阅读，更难发现错误(不能使用jslint)，执行速度更慢，并可能导致XSS漏洞。
