The second day of the MVPMIX!

This was at the University of Texas at Dallas campus in Richardson, TX in lieu of the Addison Convention Center of Addison, Texas where the prior day's festivities were held. This day held one big day long training on many things by Chander Dhall and not a series of hour long talks by many speakers as was the circumstance the day before.

It would be inappropriate to reveal all the goodies from this awesome not-for-free training, so I will just give you the very first thing I learned today. Self-running JavaScript functions like this...

(function () {
   var x = new Date();
   var y = x.getMonth();
   var z = y * y;
   alert(z);
}());

 
 

...are referred to as IIFE functions. IIFE is pronounced "iffy" and stands for: Immediately-Invoked Function Expression
