JavaScript Callback Functions Explained

🚀 Callback Functions in JavaScript A callback function is a function that is passed as an argument to another function and executed later after a specific task is completed. Callbacks are important in JavaScript because many operations are asynchronous, such as API requests, timers, and event handling. 💡 Example function greet(name, callback) {  console.log("Hello " + name);  callback(); } function sayBye() {  console.log("Goodbye!"); } greet("Amar", sayBye); In this example, sayBye is the callback function that runs after the greet function executes. 📌 Common use cases • Event listeners • API requests • setTimeout and setInterval • Array methods like map, filter, and forEach Callbacks play a fundamental role in handling asynchronous behavior in JavaScript. #JavaScript #WebDevelopment #Programming #FrontendDevelopment #Coding
