This example visualizes the caching behavior of a JavaScript `memoize` function. It shows how repeated calls with the same argument return a cached result, while new arguments trigger a fresh computation and expand the internal cache object. The code implements the memoization pattern manually, using a plain object as a cache and the spread operator to merge new entries. It does not rely on external libraries or rendering APIs; the visualization likely depicts the function’s execution flow and cache state changes, though the specific display mechanism is not defined in the provided source. The data originates from the `memoize.js` file, demonstrating the logic in isolation.

This example visualizes the nested execution of JavaScript closures by tracing function calls and their returned values. It shows how `makeASum(a)` returns an inner function `sum(b)` that captures the outer variable `a`, and how different instances like `sumOne` and `sumTen` preserve distinct contexts. The rendering uses a custom SVG-based trace, likely driven by D3’s `d3.forceSimulation` for layout and `d3.select` for DOM updates, with console logs mapping to animated nodes and edges. The data originates from the inline script’s execution sequence, displaying call stacks and computed sums in real time.

Hidden classes in JavaScript and Inline Caching

This example illustrates how the V8 JavaScript engine optimizes object property access through hidden classes and inline caching, using a Person constructor with `firstName` and `lastName` properties. The visualization shows the creation of hidden classes (C0, C1, C2) as objects are initialized, and demonstrates how adding an `age` property changes the class chain. It also depicts assembly-level code snippets showing how V8 replaces a call to the Inline Cache with a direct memory address for a ~20x speed improvement, and explains when deoptimizations occur. The source is a Markdown document from a gist by Jastor11.

This example demonstrates how a closure in JavaScript can capture a mutable variable, causing a seemingly pure function to change behavior over time. The code defines `fn1`, which returns an object with `get` and `set` methods that share access to the parameter `a`. Initially, `get()` returns the string `"hello"`, but after calling `set()`, the same `get()` returns `"Good bye!"`, and the outer variable `a` is also updated. The visualization shows this state change through console output, using plain JavaScript without external libraries.

This example demonstrates functional programming techniques in JavaScript, including currying, composition, and generator functions. It shows how currying enables partial application, as seen with the `sum` function and reusable helpers like `getName` and `mapUserNames`. The code uses `compose` with `reduceRight` to chain array transformations, filtering user names by length. It also illustrates generator behavior with `next(true)` to control iteration completion. The data is a hardcoded array of user objects, and output is logged to the console via `console.log`.

This example visualizes the distinction between local variables, instance variables, and block scoping in Ruby through a sequence of short code snippets. It shows how assignment semantics affect values across method calls and blocks, culminating in a Numeric class monkey-patch. The visualization likely renders each snippet as annotated code blocks with output values, using a custom layout or a library like D3.js to arrange the snippets and highlight variable bindings. The data originates from the gist’s source code, presented without external datasets, focusing on the logic of variable scope rather than numerical or spatial data.

This example demonstrates how the React `useRef` hook preserves a mutable value across re-renders, unlike the `createRef` API, which creates a new ref each render. It visually compares the two by displaying the current render index alongside the persisted value from `useRef` and the reset value from `createRef` after a button click triggers a state update. The code uses `React.useState` to drive re-renders and `React.useRef` to hold a stable reference, while `createRef` shows its transient nature. The example also uses `useEffect` with a custom comparison to illustrate deep object dependency handling, referencing the React documentation.

Making Javascript faster

This example presents a markdown document that compiles performance guidelines for JavaScript, sourced from a gist by GerHobbelt and linked to jsPerf benchmarks. The text explains optimization techniques such as using IIFEs over nested functions, avoiding the `arguments` object, and preferring `that` instead of `bind`. It describes the content without a graphical interface, serving as a static textual reference for developers.

Bats plus React useMemo

This example demonstrates how React’s `useMemo` hook caches expensive computations, affecting performance when a counter increments. It displays a number `I` that increases on button click, alongside calculated prime numbers and the time taken to compute them. The code uses `React.useState` and `React.useMemo` within a functional component, and a custom `doPointlessComputationsWithBlocking` function from intensive.js performs blocking prime-number calculations. The `useMemo` dependency array is empty, so the heavy computation runs once on initial render, highlighting how memoization prevents repeated work during subsequent state updates.
