JavaScript Strict mode Changes to properties
Example
Strict mode also prevents you from deleting undeletable properties.
"use strict";
delete Object.prototype; // throws a TypeError
The above statement would simply be ignored if you don't use strict mode, however now you know why it does not execute as expected.
It also prevents you from extending a non-extensible property.
var myObject = {name: "My Name"}
Object.preventExtensions(myObject);
function setAge() {
myObject.age = 25; // No errors
}
function setAge() {
"use strict";
myObject.age = 25; // TypeError: can't define property "age": Object is not extensible
}
