    Before we delve into the intricacies of JavaScript, we need to know why it is used. While HTML tells your browser how your webpage will look, JavaScript is used for dynamic content and to add functionality. Using this book, you will understand the concept of JavaScript and its use in web designing. You will also have a look at jQuery in general. You will learn about Functions, Operators, the concept of Variables, Conditions and Loops, Arrays, and the basics of jQuery in this book. Instead of wandering through loads of theory, we have used practical examples in this book. The examples in this book are compatible with almost every browser. Instead of using the verbatim code, you can modify the code and see the change in the output thereby understanding the subtle nuances of JavaScript. By the end of the book, with practice, you can achieve better things and get more acquainted with JavaScript.

There are computer training centres offering diploma courses in Bhojpuri, Hindi and English. Here is an example of India's numerous remote towns that have skipped the stage of basic learning and landed straight into digital literacy as they strive to keep up with the times.In his last book, A.P.J. Abdul Kalam, writing with Srijan Pal Singh, draws upon examples ranging from entrepreneurship in places like Badshahpur to a sophisticated missile programme like Agni to show how it can be 'Advantage India' in the final lap of the journey to 2020--the landmark year by which he had envisioned the country could transform into an economic power. How can the new initiatives--such as Make in India, Swachh Bharat, smart cities and skill development for the youth--be used to unleash the country's vast potential?Advantage India offers the answer--a movement driven by every home and school to educate the new generation and give a fresh meaning to citizenship.
