This Ecma Standard defines the ECMAScript 2016 Language. It is the seventh edition of the ECMAScript Language Specification. Since publication of the first edition in 1997, ECMAScript has grown to be one of the world's most widely used general purpose programming languages. It is best known as the language embedded in web browsers but has also been widely adopted for server and embedded applications.
ECMAScript is based on several originating technologies, the most well-known being JavaScript (Netscape) and JScript (Microsoft). The language was invented by Brendan Eich at Netscape and first appeared in that company's Navigator 2.0 browser. It has appeared in all subsequent browsers from Netscape and in all browsers from Microsoft starting with Internet Explorer 3.0.
The development of the ECMAScript Language Specification started in November 1996. The first edition of this Ecma Standard was adopted by the Ecma General Assembly of June 1997.
That Ecma Standard was submitted to ISO/IEC JTC 1 for adoption under the fast-track procedure, and approved as international standard ISO/IEC 16262, in April 1998. The Ecma General Assembly of June 1998 approved the second edition of ECMA-262 to keep it fully aligned with ISO/IEC 16262. Changes between the first and the second edition are editorial in nature.
The third edition of the Standard introduced powerful regular expressions, better string handling, new control statements, try/catch exception handling, tighter definition of errors, formatting for numeric output and minor changes in anticipation future language growth. The third edition of the ECMAScript standard was adopted by the Ecma General Assembly of December 1999 and published as ISO/IEC 16262:2002 in June 2002.
After publication of the third edition, ECMAScript achieved massive adoption in conjunction with the World Wide Web where it has become the programming language that is supported by essentially all web browsers. Significant work was done to develop a fourth edition of ECMAScript. However, that work was not completed and not published as the fourth edition of ECMAScript but some of it was incorporated into the development of the sixth edition.
The fifth edition of ECMAScript (published as ECMA-262 5
th
edition) codified de facto interpretations of the language specification that have become common among browser implementations and added support for new features that had emerged since the publication of the third edition. Such features include accessor properties, reflective creation and inspection of objects, program control of property attributes, additional array manipulation functions, support for the JSON object encoding format, and a strict mode that provides enhanced error checking and program security. The Fifth Edition was adopted by the Ecma General Assembly of December 2009.
The fifth Edition was submitted to ISO/IEC JTC 1 for adoption under the fast-track procedure, and approved as international standard ISO/IEC 16262:2011. Edition 5.1 of the ECMAScript Standard incorporated minor corrections and is the same text as ISO/IEC 16262:2011. The 5.1 Edition was adopted by the Ecma General Assembly of June 2011.
Focused development of the sixth edition started in 2009, as the fifth edition was being prepared for publication. However, this was preceded by significant experimentation and language enhancement design efforts dating to the publication of the third edition in 1999. In a very real sense, the completion of the sixth edition is the culmination of a fifteen year effort. The goals for this addition included providing better support for large applications, library creation, and for use of ECMAScript as a compilation target for other languages. Some of its major enhancements included modules, class declarations, lexical block scoping, iterators and generators, promises for asynchronous programming, destructuring patterns, and proper tail calls. The ECMAScript library of built-ins was expanded to support additional data abstractions including maps, sets, and arrays of binary numeric values as well as additional support for Unicode supplemental characters in strings and regular expressions. The built-ins were also made extensible via subclassing. The sixth edition provides the foundation for regular, incremental language and library enhancements. The sixth edition was adopted by the General Assembly of June 2015.
This ECMAScript specification is the first ECMAScript edition released under Ecma TC39's new yearly release cadence and open development process. A plain-text source document was built from the ECMAScript 2015 source document to serve as the base for further development entirely on GitHub. Over the year of this standard's development, hundreds of pull requests and issues were filed representing thousands of bug fixes, editorial fixes and other improvements. Additionally, numerous software tools were developed to aid in this effort including Ecmarkup, Ecmarkdown, and Grammarkdown. This specification also includes support for a new exponentiation operator and adds a new method to Array.prototype called
includes
Dozens of individuals representing many organizations have made very significant contributions within Ecma TC39 to the development of this edition and to the prior editions. In addition, a vibrant community has emerged supporting TC39's ECMAScript efforts. This community has reviewed numerous drafts, filed thousands of bug reports, performed implementation experiments, contributed test suites, and educated the world-wide developer community about ECMAScript. Unfortunately, it is impossible to identify and acknowledge every person and organization who has contributed to this effort.

Overview
This section contains a non-normative overview of the ECMAScript language.
ECMAScript is an object-oriented programming language for performing computations and manipulating computational objects within a host environment. ECMAScript as defined here is not intended to be computationally self-sufficient; indeed, there are no provisions in this specification for input of external data or output of computed results. Instead, it is expected that the computational environment of an ECMAScript program will provide not only the objects and other facilities described in this specification but also certain environment-specific objects, whose description and behaviour are beyond the scope of this specification except to indicate that they may provide certain properties that can be accessed and certain functions that can be called from an ECMAScript program.
ECMAScript was originally designed to be used as a scripting language, but has become widely used as a general purpose programming language. A
scripting language
is a programming language that is used to manipulate, customize, and automate the facilities of an existing system. In such systems, useful functionality is already available through a user interface, and the scripting language is a mechanism for exposing that functionality to program control. In this way, the existing system is said to provide a host environment of objects and facilities, which completes the capabilities of the scripting language. A scripting language is intended for use by both professional and non-professional programmers.
ECMAScript was originally designed to be a
Web scripting language
, providing a mechanism to enliven Web pages in browsers and to perform server computation as part of a Web-based client-server architecture. ECMAScript is now used to provide core scripting capabilities for a variety of host environments. Therefore the core language is specified in this document apart from any particular host environment.
ECMAScript usage has moved beyond simple scripting and it is now used for the full spectrum of programming tasks in many different environments and scales. As the usage of ECMAScript has expanded, so has the features and facilities it provides. ECMAScript is now a fully featured general propose programming language.
Some of the facilities of ECMAScript are similar to those used in other programming languages; in particular C, Java™, Self, and Scheme as described in:

4.1
Web Scripting
A web browser provides an ECMAScript host environment for client-side computation including, for instance, objects that represent windows, menus, pop-ups, dialog boxes, text areas, anchors, frames, history, cookies, and input/output. Further, the host environment provides a means to attach scripting code to events such as change of focus, page and image loading, unloading, error and abort, selection, form submission, and mouse actions. Scripting code appears within the HTML and the displayed page is a combination of user interface elements and fixed and computed text and images. The scripting code is reactive to user interaction and there is no need for a main program.
A web server provides a different host environment for server-side computation including objects representing requests, clients, and files; and mechanisms to lock and share data. By using browser-side and server-side scripting together, it is possible to distribute computation between the client and server while providing a customized user interface for a Web-based application.
Each Web browser and server that supports ECMAScript supplies its own host environment, completing the ECMAScript execution environment.
4.2
ECMAScript Overview
The following is an informal overview of ECMAScript—not all parts of the language are described. This overview is not part of the standard proper.
ECMAScript is object-based: basic language and host facilities are provided by objects, and an ECMAScript program is a cluster of communicating objects. In ECMAScript, an
object
is a collection of zero or more
properties
each with
attributes
that determine how each property can be used—for example, when the Writable attribute for a property is set to
false
, any attempt by executed ECMAScript code to assign a different value to the property fails. Properties are containers that hold other objects,
primitive values
, or
functions
. A primitive value is a member of one of the following built-in types:
Undefined
Null
Boolean
Number
String
, and
Symbol;
an object is a member of the built-in type
Object
; and a function is a callable object. A function that is associated with an object via a property is called a
method
ECMAScript defines a collection of
built-in objects
that round out the definition of ECMAScript entities. These built-in objects include the
global object
; objects that are fundamental to the runtime semantics of the language including
Object
Function
Boolean
Symbol
, and various
Error
objects; objects that represent and manipulate numeric values including
Math
Number
, and
Date
; the text processing objects
String
and
RegExp
; objects that are indexed collections of values including
Array
and nine different kinds of Typed Arrays whose elements all have a specific numeric data representation; keyed collections including
Map
and
Set
objects; objects supporting structured data including the
JSON
object,
ArrayBuffer
, and
DataView
; objects supporting control abstractions including generator functions and
Promise
objects; and, reflection objects including
Proxy
and
Reflect
ECMAScript also defines a set of built-in
operators
. ECMAScript operators include various unary operations, multiplicative operators, additive operators, bitwise shift operators, relational operators, equality operators, binary bitwise operators, binary logical operators, assignment operators, and the comma operator.
Large ECMAScript programs are supported by
modules
which allow a program to be divided into multiple sequences of statements and declarations. Each module explicitly identifies declarations it uses that need to be provided by other modules and which of its declarations are available for use by other modules.
ECMAScript syntax intentionally resembles Java syntax. ECMAScript syntax is relaxed to enable it to serve as an easy-to-use scripting language. For example, a variable is not required to have its type declared nor are types associated with properties, and defined functions are not required to have their declarations appear textually before calls to them.
4.2.1
Objects
Even though ECMAScript includes syntax for class definitions, ECMAScript objects are not fundamentally class-based such as those in C++, Smalltalk, or Java. Instead objects may be created in various ways including via a literal notation or via
constructors
which create objects and then execute code that initializes all or part of them by assigning initial values to their properties. Each constructor is a function that has a property named
"prototype"
that is used to implement
prototype-based inheritance
and
shared properties
. Objects are created by using constructors in
new
expressions; for example,
new Date(2009,11)
creates a new Date object. Invoking a constructor without using
new
has consequences that depend on the constructor. For example,
Date()
produces a string representation of the current date and time rather than an object.
Every object created by a constructor has an implicit reference (called the object's
prototype
) to the value of its constructor's
"prototype"
property. Furthermore, a prototype may have a non-null implicit reference to its prototype, and so on; this is called the
prototype chain
. When a reference is made to a property in an object, that reference is to the property of that name in the first object in the prototype chain that contains a property of that name. In other words, first the object mentioned directly is examined for such a property; if that object contains the named property, that is the property to which the reference refers; if that object does not contain the named property, the prototype for that object is examined next; and so on.
Figure 1: Object/Prototype Relationships
In a class-based object-oriented language, in general, state is carried by instances, methods are carried by classes, and inheritance is only of structure and behaviour. In ECMAScript, the state and methods are carried by objects, while structure, behaviour, and state are all inherited.
All objects that do not directly contain a particular property that their prototype contains share that property and its value. Figure 1 illustrates this:
CF
is a constructor (and also an object). Five objects have been created by using
new
expressions:
cf
cf
cf
cf
, and
cf
. Each of these objects contains properties named
q1
and
q2
. The dashed lines represent the implicit prototype relationship; so, for example,
cf
's prototype is
CF
. The constructor,
CF
, has two properties itself, named
P1
and
P2
, which are not visible to
CF
cf
cf
cf
cf
, or
cf
. The property named
CFP1
in
CF
is shared by
cf
cf
cf
cf
, and
cf
(but not by
CF
), as are any properties found in
CF
's implicit prototype chain that are not named
q1
q2
, or
CFP1
. Notice that there is no implicit prototype link between
CF
and
CF
Unlike most class-based object languages, properties can be added to objects dynamically by assigning values to them. That is, constructors are not required to name or assign values to all or any of the constructed object's properties. In the above diagram, one could add a new shared property for
cf
cf
cf
cf
, and
cf
by assigning a new value to the property in
CF
Although ECMAScript objects are not inherently class-based, it is often convenient to define class-like abstractions based upon a common pattern of constructor functions, prototype objects, and methods. The ECMAScript built-in objects themselves follow such a class-like pattern. Beginning with ECMAScript 2015, the ECMAScript language includes syntactic class definitions that permit programmers to concisely define objects that conform to the same class-like abstraction pattern used by the built-in objects.
4.2.2
The Strict Variant of ECMAScript
The ECMAScript Language recognizes the possibility that some users of the language may wish to restrict their usage of some features available in the language. They might do so in the interests of security, to avoid what they consider to be error-prone features, to get enhanced error checking, or for other reasons of their choosing. In support of this possibility, ECMAScript defines a strict variant of the language. The strict variant of the language excludes some specific syntactic and semantic features of the regular ECMAScript language and modifies the detailed semantics of some features. The strict variant also specifies additional error conditions that must be reported by throwing error exceptions in situations that are not specified as errors by the non-strict form of the language.
The strict variant of ECMAScript is commonly referred to as the
strict mode
of the language. Strict mode selection and use of the strict mode syntax and semantics of ECMAScript is explicitly made at the level of individual ECMAScript source text units. Because strict mode is selected at the level of a syntactic source text unit, strict mode only imposes restrictions that have local effect within such a source text unit. Strict mode does not restrict or modify any aspect of the ECMAScript semantics that must operate consistently across multiple source text units. A complete ECMAScript program may be composed of both strict mode and non-strict mode ECMAScript source text units. In this case, strict mode only applies when actually executing code that is defined within a strict mode source text unit.
In order to conform to this specification, an ECMAScript implementation must implement both the full unrestricted ECMAScript language and the strict variant of the ECMAScript language as defined by this specification. In addition, an implementation must support the combination of unrestricted and strict mode source text units into a single composite program.
4.3
Terms and Definitions
For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply.
4.3.1
type
set of data values as defined in clause
of this specification
4.3.2
primitive value
member of one of the types Undefined, Null, Boolean, Number, Symbol, or String as defined in clause
Note
A primitive value is a datum that is represented directly at the lowest level of the language implementation.
4.3.3
object
member of the type Object
Note
An object is a collection of properties and has a single prototype object. The prototype may be the null value.
4.3.4
constructor
function object that creates and initializes objects
Note
The value of a constructor's
prototype
property is a prototype object that is used to implement inheritance and shared properties.
4.3.5
prototype
object that provides shared properties for other objects
Note
When a constructor creates an object, that object implicitly references the constructor's
prototype
property for the purpose of resolving property references. The constructor's
prototype
property can be referenced by the program expression
constructor
.prototype
, and properties added to an object's prototype are shared, through inheritance, by all objects sharing the prototype. Alternatively, a new object may be created with an explicitly specified prototype by using the
Object.create
built-in function.
4.3.6
ordinary object
object that has the default behaviour for the essential internal methods that must be supported by all objects
4.3.7
exotic object
object that does not have the default behaviour for one or more of the essential internal methods
Note
Any object that is not an ordinary object is an exotic object.
4.3.8
standard object
object whose semantics are defined by this specification
4.3.9
built-in object
object specified and supplied by an ECMAScript implementation
Note
Standard built-in objects are defined in this specification. An ECMAScript implementation may specify and supply additional kinds of built-in objects. A
built-in constructor
is a built-in object that is also a constructor.
4.3.10
undefined value
primitive value used when a variable has not been assigned a value
4.3.11
Undefined type
type whose sole value is the
undefined
value
4.3.12
null value
primitive value that represents the intentional absence of any object value
4.3.13
Null type
type whose sole value is the
null
value
4.3.14
Boolean value
member of the Boolean type
Note
There are only two Boolean values,
true
and
false
4.3.15
Boolean type
type consisting of the primitive values
true
and
false
4.3.16
Boolean object
member of the Object type that is an instance of the standard built-in
Boolean
constructor
Note
A Boolean object is created by using the
Boolean
constructor in a
new
expression, supplying a Boolean value as an argument. The resulting object has an internal slot whose value is the Boolean value. A Boolean object can be coerced to a Boolean value.
4.3.17
String value
primitive value that is a finite ordered sequence of zero or more 16-bit unsigned integer
Note
A String value is a member of the String type. Each integer value in the sequence usually represents a single 16-bit unit of UTF-16 text. However, ECMAScript does not place any restrictions or requirements on the values except that they must be 16-bit unsigned integers.
4.3.18
String type
set of all possible String values
4.3.19
String object
member of the Object type that is an instance of the standard built-in
String
constructor
Note
A String object is created by using the
String
constructor in a
new
expression, supplying a String value as an argument. The resulting object has an internal slot whose value is the String value. A String object can be coerced to a String value by calling the
String
constructor as a function (
21.1.1.1
).
4.3.20
Number value
primitive value corresponding to a double-precision 64-bit binary format IEEE 754-2008 value
Note
A Number value is a member of the Number type and is a direct representation of a number.
4.3.21
Number type
set of all possible Number values including the special “Not-a-Number” (NaN) value, positive infinity, and negative infinity
4.3.22
Number object
member of the Object type that is an instance of the standard built-in
Number
constructor
Note
A Number object is created by using the
Number
constructor in a
new
expression, supplying a number value as an argument. The resulting object has an internal slot whose value is the number value. A Number object can be coerced to a number value by calling the
Number
constructor as a function (
20.1.1.1
).
4.3.23
Infinity
number value that is the positive infinite number value
4.3.24
NaN
number value that is an IEEE 754-2008 “Not-a-Number” value
4.3.25
Symbol value
primitive value that represents a unique, non-String Object property key
4.3.26
Symbol type
set of all possible Symbol values
4.3.27
Symbol object
member of the Object type that is an instance of the standard built-in
Symbol
constructor
4.3.28
function
member of the Object type that may be invoked as a subroutine

In addition to its properties, a function contains executable code and state that determine how it behaves when invoked. A function's code may or may not be written in ECMAScript.
4.3.29
built-in function
built-in object that is a function
Note
Examples of built-in functions include
parseInt
and
Math.exp
. An implementation may provide implementation-dependent built-in functions that are not described in this specification.
4.3.30
property
part of an object that associates a key (either a String value or a Symbol value) and a value
Note
Depending upon the form of the property the value may be represented either directly as a data value (a primitive value, an object, or a function object) or indirectly by a pair of accessor functions.
4.3.31
method
function that is the value of a property
Note
When a function is called as a method of an object, the object is passed to the function as its
this
value.
4.3.32
built-in method
method that is a built-in function
Note
Standard built-in methods are defined in this specification, and an ECMAScript implementation may specify and provide other additional built-in methods.
4.3.33
attribute
internal value that defines some characteristic of a property
4.3.34
own property
property that is directly contained by its object
4.3.35
inherited property
property of an object that is not an own property but is a property (either own or inherited) of the object's prototype
4.4
Organization of This Specification
The remainder of this specification is organized as follows:
Clause 5 defines the notational conventions used throughout the specification.
Clauses 6-9 define the execution environment within which ECMAScript programs operate.
Clauses 10-16 define the actual ECMAScript programming language including its syntactic encoding and the execution semantics of all language features.

Notational Conventions
5.1
Syntactic and Lexical Grammars
5.1.1
Context-Free Grammars
context-free grammar
consists of a number of
productions
. Each production has an abstract symbol called a
nonterminal
as its
left-hand side
, and a sequence of zero or more nonterminal and
terminal
symbols as its
right-hand side
. For each grammar, the terminal symbols are drawn from a specified alphabet.
chain production
is a production that has exactly one nonterminal symbol on its right-hand side along with zero or more terminal symbols.
Starting from a sentence consisting of a single distinguished nonterminal, called the
goal symbol
, a given context-free grammar specifies a
language
, namely, the (perhaps infinite) set of possible sequences of terminal symbols that can result from repeatedly replacing any nonterminal in the sequence with a right-hand side of a production for which the nonterminal is the left-hand side.
5.1.2
The Lexical and RegExp Grammars
lexical grammar
for ECMAScript is given in clause
11
. This grammar has as its terminal symbols Unicode code points that conform to the rules for
SourceCharacter
defined in
10.1
. It defines a set of productions, starting from the goal symbol
InputElementDiv
InputElementTemplateTail
, or
InputElementRegExp
, or
InputElementRegExpOrTemplateTail
, that describe how sequences of such code points are translated into a sequence of input elements.
Input elements other than white space and comments form the terminal symbols for the syntactic grammar for ECMAScript and are called ECMAScript
tokens
. These tokens are the reserved words, identifiers, literals, and punctuators of the ECMAScript language. Moreover, line terminators, although not considered to be tokens, also become part of the stream of input elements and guide the process of automatic semicolon insertion (
11.9
). Simple white space and single-line comments are discarded and do not appear in the stream of input elements for the syntactic grammar. A
MultiLineComment
(that is, a comment of the form
/*
*/
regardless of whether it spans more than one line) is likewise simply discarded if it contains no line terminator; but if a
MultiLineComment
contains one or more line terminators, then it is replaced by a single line terminator, which becomes part of the stream of input elements for the syntactic grammar.
RegExp grammar
for ECMAScript is given in
21.2.1
. This grammar also has as its terminal symbols the code points as defined by
SourceCharacter
. It defines a set of productions, starting from the goal symbol
Pattern
, that describe how sequences of code points are translated into regular expression patterns.
Productions of the lexical and RegExp grammars are distinguished by having two colons “
::
” as separating punctuation. The lexical and RegExp grammars share some productions.
5.1.3
The Numeric String Grammar
Another grammar is used for translating Strings into numeric values. This grammar is similar to the part of the lexical grammar having to do with numeric literals and has as its terminal symbols
SourceCharacter
. This grammar appears in
7.1.3.1
Productions of the numeric string grammar are distinguished by having three colons “
:::
” as punctuation.
5.1.4
The Syntactic Grammar
The
syntactic grammar
for ECMAScript is given in clauses 11, 12, 13, 14, and 15. This grammar has ECMAScript tokens defined by the lexical grammar as its terminal symbols (
5.1.2
). It defines a set of productions, starting from two alternative goal symbols
Script
and
Module
, that describe how sequences of tokens form syntactically correct independent components of ECMAScript programs.
When a stream of code points is to be parsed as an ECMAScript
Script
or
Module
, it is first converted to a stream of input elements by repeated application of the lexical grammar; this stream of input elements is then parsed by a single application of the syntactic grammar. The input stream is syntactically in error if the tokens in the stream of input elements cannot be parsed as a single instance of the goal nonterminal (
Script
or
Module
), with no tokens left over.
Productions of the syntactic grammar are distinguished by having just one colon “
” as punctuation.
The syntactic grammar as presented in clauses 12, 13, 14 and 15 is not a complete account of which token sequences are accepted as a correct ECMAScript
Script
or
Module
. Certain additional token sequences are also accepted, namely, those that would be described by the grammar if only semicolons were added to the sequence in certain places (such as before line terminator characters). Furthermore, certain token sequences that are described by the grammar are not considered acceptable if a line terminator character appears in certain “awkward” places.
In certain cases in order to avoid ambiguities the syntactic grammar uses generalized productions that permit token sequences that do not form a valid ECMAScript
Script
or
Module
. For example, this technique is used for object literals and object destructuring patterns. In such cases a more restrictive
supplemental grammar
is provided that further restricts the acceptable token sequences. In certain contexts, when explicitly specified, the input elements corresponding to such a production are parsed again using a goal symbol of a supplemental grammar. The input stream is syntactically in error if the tokens in the stream of input elements parsed by a cover grammar cannot be parsed as a single instance of the corresponding supplemental goal symbol, with no tokens left over.
5.1.5
Grammar Notation
Terminal symbols of the lexical, RegExp, and numeric string grammars are shown in
fixed width
font, both in the productions of the grammars and throughout this specification whenever the text directly refers to such a terminal symbol. These are to appear in a script exactly as written. All terminal symbol code points specified in this way are to be understood as the appropriate Unicode code points from the Basic Latin range, as opposed to any similar-looking code points from other Unicode ranges.
Nonterminal symbols are shown in
italic
type. The definition of a nonterminal (also called a “production”) is introduced by the name of the nonterminal being defined followed by one or more colons. (The number of colons indicates to which grammar the production belongs.) One or more alternative right-hand sides for the nonterminal then follow on succeeding lines. For example, the syntactic definition:
WhileStatement
while
Expression
Statement
states that the nonterminal
WhileStatement
represents the token
while
, followed by a left parenthesis token, followed by an
Expression
, followed by a right parenthesis token, followed by a
Statement
. The occurrences of
Expression
and
Statement
are themselves nonterminals. As another example, the syntactic definition:
ArgumentList
AssignmentExpression
ArgumentList
AssignmentExpression
states that an
ArgumentList
may represent either a single
AssignmentExpression
or an
ArgumentList
, followed by a comma, followed by an
AssignmentExpression
. This definition of
ArgumentList
is recursive, that is, it is defined in terms of itself. The result is that an
ArgumentList
may contain any positive number of arguments, separated by commas, where each argument expression is an
AssignmentExpression
. Such recursive definitions of nonterminals are common.
The subscripted suffix “
opt
”, which may appear after a terminal or nonterminal, indicates an optional symbol. The alternative containing the optional symbol actually specifies two right-hand sides, one that omits the optional element and one that includes it. This means that:
VariableDeclaration
BindingIdentifier
Initializer
opt
is a convenient abbreviation for:
VariableDeclaration
BindingIdentifier
BindingIdentifier
Initializer
and that:
IterationStatement
for
LexicalDeclaration
Expression
opt
Expression
opt
Statement
is a convenient abbreviation for:

which in turn is an abbreviation for:
IterationStatement

LexicalDeclaration
Statement
for
LexicalDeclaration

for
LexicalDeclaration
Expression

so, in this example, the nonterminal
IterationStatement
actually has four alternative right-hand sides.
A production may be parameterized by a subscripted annotation of the form “
[parameters]
”, which may appear as a suffix to the nonterminal symbol defined by the production. “
parameters
” may be either a single name or a comma separated list of names. A parameterized production is shorthand for a set of productions defining all combinations of the parameter names, preceded by an underscore, appended to the parameterized nonterminal symbol. This means that:
StatementList
[Return]
ReturnStatement
ExpressionStatement
is a convenient abbreviation for:
StatementList
ReturnStatement
ExpressionStatement
StatementList_Return
ReturnStatement
ExpressionStatement
and that:
StatementList
[Return, In]
ReturnStatement
ExpressionStatement
is an abbreviation for:
StatementList
ReturnStatement
ExpressionStatement
StatementList_Return
ReturnStatement
ExpressionStatement
StatementList_In
ReturnStatement
ExpressionStatement
StatementList_Return_In
ReturnStatement
ExpressionStatement
Multiple parameters produce a combinatory number of productions, not all of which are necessarily referenced in a complete grammar.
References to nonterminals on the right-hand side of a production can also be parameterized. For example:
StatementList
ReturnStatement
ExpressionStatement
[In]
is equivalent to saying:
StatementList
ReturnStatement
ExpressionStatement_In
A nonterminal reference may have both a parameter list and an “
opt
” suffix. For example:
VariableDeclaration
BindingIdentifier
Initializer
[In]
opt
is an abbreviation for:
VariableDeclaration
BindingIdentifier
BindingIdentifier
Initializer_In
Prefixing a parameter name with “
” on a right-hand side nonterminal reference makes that parameter value dependent upon the occurrence of the parameter name on the reference to the current production's left-hand side symbol. For example:
VariableDeclaration
[In]
BindingIdentifier
Initializer
[?In]
is an abbreviation for:
VariableDeclaration
BindingIdentifier
Initializer
VariableDeclaration_In
BindingIdentifier
Initializer_In
If a right-hand side alternative is prefixed with “[+parameter]” that alternative is only available if the named parameter was used in referencing the production's nonterminal symbol. If a right-hand side alternative is prefixed with “[~parameter]” that alternative is only available if the named parameter was
not
used in referencing the production's nonterminal symbol. This means that:
StatementList
[Return]
[+Return]
ReturnStatement
ExpressionStatement
is an abbreviation for:
StatementList
ExpressionStatement
StatementList_Return
ReturnStatement
ExpressionStatement
and that
StatementList
[Return]
[~Return]
ReturnStatement
ExpressionStatement
is an abbreviation for:
StatementList
ReturnStatement
ExpressionStatement
StatementList_Return
ExpressionStatement
When the words “
one of
” follow the colon(s) in a grammar definition, they signify that each of the terminal symbols on the following line or lines is an alternative definition. For example, the lexical grammar for ECMAScript contains the production:
NonZeroDigit
::
one of
which is merely a convenient abbreviation for:
NonZeroDigit
::
If the phrase “[empty]” appears as the right-hand side of a production, it indicates that the production's right-hand side contains no terminals or nonterminals.
If the phrase “[lookahead ∉
set
]” appears in the right-hand side of a production, it indicates that the production may not be used if the immediately following input token sequence is a member of the given
set
. The
set
can be written as a comma separated list of one or two element terminal sequences enclosed in curly brackets. For convenience, the set can also be written as a nonterminal, in which case it represents the set of all terminals to which that nonterminal could expand. If the
set
consists of a single terminal the phrase “[lookahead ≠
terminal
]” may be used.
For example, given the definitions
DecimalDigit
::
one of
DecimalDigits
::
DecimalDigit
DecimalDigits
DecimalDigit
the definition
LookaheadExample
::
[lookahead ∉ {
}]
DecimalDigits
DecimalDigit
[lookahead ∉
DecimalDigit
matches either the letter
followed by one or more decimal digits the first of which is even, or a decimal digit not followed by another decimal digit.
If the phrase “[no
LineTerminator
here]” appears in the right-hand side of a production of the syntactic grammar, it indicates that the production is
a restricted production
: it may not be used if a
LineTerminator
occurs in the input stream at the indicated position. For example, the production:
ThrowStatement
throw
[no
LineTerminator
here]
Expression
indicates that the production may not be used if a
LineTerminator
occurs in the script between the
throw
token and the
Expression
Unless the presence of a
LineTerminator
is forbidden by a restricted production, any number of occurrences of
LineTerminator
may appear between any two consecutive tokens in the stream of input elements without affecting the syntactic acceptability of the script.
When an alternative in a production of the lexical grammar or the numeric string grammar appears to be a multi-code point token, it represents the sequence of code points that would make up such a token.
The right-hand side of a production may specify that certain expansions are not permitted by using the phrase “
but not
” and then indicating the expansions to be excluded. For example, the production:
Identifier
::
IdentifierName
but not
ReservedWord
means that the nonterminal
Identifier
may be replaced by any sequence of code points that could replace
IdentifierName
provided that the same sequence of code points could not replace
ReservedWord
Finally, a few nonterminal symbols are described by a descriptive phrase in sans-serif type in cases where it would be impractical to list all the alternatives:
SourceCharacter
::
any Unicode code point
5.2
Algorithm Conventions
The specification often uses a numbered list to specify steps in an algorithm. These algorithms are used to precisely specify the required semantics of ECMAScript language constructs. The algorithms are not intended to imply the use of any specific implementation technique. In practice, there may be more efficient algorithms available to implement a given feature.
Algorithms may be explicitly parameterized, in which case the names and usage of the parameters must be provided as part of the algorithm's definition. In order to facilitate their use in multiple parts of this specification, some algorithms, called
abstract operations
, are named and written in parameterized functional form so that they may be referenced by name from within other algorithms. Abstract operations are typically referenced using a functional application style such as operationName(
arg1
arg2
). Some abstract operations are treated as polymorphically dispatched methods of class-like specification abstractions. Such method-like abstract operations are typically referenced using a method application style such as
someValue
.operationName(
arg1
arg2
).
Calls to abstract operations return
Completion
Records. Abstract operations referenced using the functional application style and the method application style that are prefixed by
indicate that
ReturnIfAbrupt
should be applied to the resulting
Completion Record
. For example, ? operationName() is equivalent to
ReturnIfAbrupt
(operationName()). Similarly, ?
someValue
.operationName() is equivalent to
ReturnIfAbrupt
someValue
.operationName()).
The prefix
is used to indicate that an abstract operation will never return an
abrupt completion
and that the resulting
Completion Record
's value field should be used in place of the return value of the operation. For example, “Let
val
be ! operationName()” is equivalent to the following algorithm steps:
Let
val
be operationName().
Assert:
val
is never an
abrupt completion
If
val
is a
Completion Record
, let
val
be
val
.[[Value]].
Algorithms may be associated with productions of one of the ECMAScript grammars. A production that has multiple alternative definitions will typically have a distinct algorithm for each alternative. When an algorithm is associated with a grammar production, it may reference the terminal and nonterminal symbols of the production alternative as if they were parameters of the algorithm. When used in this manner, nonterminal symbols refer to the actual alternative definition that is matched when parsing the source text.
When an algorithm is associated with a production alternative, the alternative is typically shown without any “[ ]” grammar annotations. Such annotations should only affect the syntactic recognition of the alternative and have no effect on the associated semantics for the alternative.
Unless explicitly specified otherwise, all chain productions have an implicit definition for every algorithm that might be applied to that production's left-hand side nonterminal. The implicit definition simply reapplies the same algorithm name with the same parameters, if any, to the
chain production
's sole right-hand side nonterminal and then returns the result. For example, assume there is a production:
Block
StatementList
but there is no corresponding Evaluation algorithm that is explicitly specified for that production. If in some algorithm there is a statement of the form: “Return the result of evaluating
Block
” it is implicit that an Evaluation algorithm exists of the form:
Runtime Semantics: Evaluation
Block
StatementList
Return the result of evaluating
StatementList
For clarity of expression, algorithm steps may be subdivided into sequential substeps. Substeps are indented and may themselves be further divided into indented substeps. Outline numbering conventions are used to identify substeps with the first level of substeps labelled with lower case alphabetic characters and the second level of substeps labelled with lower case roman numerals. If more than three levels are required these rules repeat with the fourth level using numeric labels. For example:
Top-level step
Substep.
Substep.
Subsubstep.
Subsubsubstep
Subsubsubsubstep
Subsubsubsubsubstep
A step or substep may be written as an “if” predicate that conditions its substeps. In this case, the substeps are only applied if the predicate is true. If a step or substep begins with the word “else”, it is a predicate that is the negation of the preceding “if” predicate step at the same level.
A step may specify the iterative application of its substeps.
A step that begins with “Assert:” asserts an invariant condition of its algorithm. Such assertions are used to make explicit algorithmic invariants that would otherwise be implicit. Such assertions add no additional semantic requirements and hence need not be checked by an implementation. They are used simply to clarify algorithms.
Mathematical operations such as addition, subtraction, negation, multiplication, division, and the mathematical functions defined later in this clause should always be understood as computing exact mathematical results on mathematical real numbers, which unless otherwise noted do not include infinities and do not include a negative zero that is distinguished from positive zero. Algorithms in this standard that model floating-point arithmetic include explicit steps, where necessary, to handle infinities and signed zero and to perform rounding. If a mathematical operation or function is applied to a floating-point number, it should be understood as being applied to the exact mathematical value represented by that floating-point number; such a floating-point number must be finite, and if it is
+0
or
-0
then the corresponding mathematical value is simply 0.
The mathematical function
abs
produces the absolute value of
, which is
if

xN
produces the mathematically smallest of

5.3
Static Semantic Rules
Context-free grammars are not sufficiently powerful to express all the rules that define whether a stream of input elements form a valid ECMAScript
Script
or
Module
that may be evaluated. In some situations additional rules are needed that may be expressed using either ECMAScript algorithm conventions or prose requirements. Such rules are always associated with a production of a grammar and are called the
static semantics
of the production.
Static Semantic Rules have names and typically are defined using an algorithm. Named Static Semantic Rules are associated with grammar productions and a production that has multiple alternative definitions will typically have for each alternative a distinct algorithm for each applicable named static semantic rule.
Unless otherwise specified every grammar production alternative in this specification implicitly has a definition for a static semantic rule named Contains which takes an argument named
symbol
whose value is a terminal or nonterminal of the grammar that includes the associated production. The default definition of Contains is:
For each terminal and nonterminal grammar symbol,
sym
, in the definition of this production do
If
sym
is the same grammar symbol as
symbol
, return
true
If
sym
is a nonterminal, then
Let
contained
be the result of
sym
Contains
symbol
If
contained
is
true
, return
true
Return
false
The above definition is explicitly over-ridden for specific productions.
A special kind of static semantic rule is an
Early Error Rule
Early error
rules define
early error
conditions (see clause
16
) that are associated with specific grammar productions. Evaluation of most
early error
rules are not explicitly invoked within the algorithms of this specification. A conforming implementation must, prior to the first evaluation of a
Script
or
Module
, validate all of the
early error
rules of the productions used to parse that
Script
or
Module
. If any of the
early error
rules are violated the
Script
or
Module
is invalid and cannot be evaluated.
ECMAScript Data Types and Values
Algorithms within this specification manipulate values each of which has an associated type. The possible value types are exactly those defined in this clause. Types are further subclassified into ECMAScript language types and specification types.
Within this specification, the notation “Type(
)” is used as shorthand for “the
type
of
” where “type” refers to the ECMAScript language and specification types defined in this clause. When the term “empty” is used as if it was naming a value, it is equivalent to saying “no value of any type”.
6.1
ECMAScript Language Types
An
ECMAScript language type
corresponds to values that are directly manipulated by an ECMAScript programmer using the ECMAScript language. The ECMAScript language types are Undefined, Null, Boolean, String, Symbol, Number, and Object. An
ECMAScript language value
is a value that is characterized by an ECMAScript language type.
6.1.1
The Undefined Type
The Undefined type has exactly one value, called
undefined
. Any variable that has not been assigned a value has the value
undefined
6.1.2
The Null Type
The Null type has exactly one value, called
null
6.1.3
The Boolean Type
The Boolean type represents a logical entity having two values, called
true
and
false
6.1.4
The String Type
The String type is the set of all ordered sequences of zero or more 16-bit unsigned integer values (“elements”) up to a maximum length of 2
53
-1 elements. The String type is generally used to represent textual data in a running ECMAScript program, in which case each element in the String is treated as a UTF-16 code unit value. Each element is regarded as occupying a position within the sequence. These positions are indexed with nonnegative integers. The first element (if any) is at index 0, the next element (if any) at index 1, and so on. The length of a String is the number of elements (i.e., 16-bit values) within it. The empty String has length zero and therefore contains no elements.
Where ECMAScript operations interpret String values, each element is interpreted as a single UTF-16 code unit. However, ECMAScript does not place any restrictions or requirements on the sequence of code units in a String value, so they may be ill-formed when interpreted as UTF-16 code unit sequences. Operations that do not interpret String contents treat them as sequences of undifferentiated 16-bit unsigned integers. The function
String.prototype.normalize
(see
21.1.3.12
) can be used to explicitly normalize a String value.
String.prototype.localeCompare
(see
21.1.3.10
) internally normalizes String values, but no other operations implicitly normalize the strings upon which they operate. Only operations that are explicitly specified to be language or locale sensitive produce language-sensitive results.
Note
The rationale behind this design was to keep the implementation of Strings as simple and high-performing as possible. If ECMAScript source text is in Normalized Form C, string literals are guaranteed to also be normalized, as long as they do not contain any Unicode escape sequences.
Some operations interpret String contents as UTF-16 encoded Unicode code points. In that case the interpretation is:
A code unit in the range 0 to 0xD7FF or in the range 0xE000 to 0xFFFF is interpreted as a code point with the same value.
A sequence of two code units, where the first code unit
c1
is in the range 0xD800 to 0xDBFF and the second code unit
c2
is in the range 0xDC00 to 0xDFFF, is a surrogate pair and is interpreted as a code point with the value (
c1
- 0xD800) × 0x400 + (
c2
- 0xDC00) + 0x10000. (See
10.1.2
A code unit that is in the range 0xD800 to 0xDFFF, but is not part of a surrogate pair, is interpreted as a code point with the same value.
6.1.5
The Symbol Type
The Symbol type is the set of all non-String values that may be used as the key of an Object property (
6.1.7
).
Each possible Symbol value is unique and immutable.
Each Symbol value immutably holds an associated value called [[Description]] that is either
undefined
or a String value.
6.1.5.1
Well-Known Symbols
Well-known symbols are built-in Symbol values that are explicitly referenced by algorithms of this specification. They are typically used as the keys of properties whose values serve as extension points of a specification algorithm. Unless otherwise specified, well-known symbols values are shared by all realms (
8.2
).
Within this specification a well-known symbol is referred to by using a notation of the form @@name, where “name” is one of the values listed in
Table 1
Table 1: Well-known Symbols

with
environment bindings of the associated object.
6.1.6
The Number Type
The Number type has exactly 18437736874454810627 (that is,
64
-2
53
+3
) values, representing the double-precision 64-bit format IEEE 754-2008 values as specified in the IEEE Standard for Binary Floating-Point Arithmetic, except that the 9007199254740990 (that is,
53
-2
) distinct “Not-a-Number” values of the IEEE Standard are represented in ECMAScript as a single special
NaN
value. (Note that the
NaN
value is produced by the program expression
NaN
.) In some implementations, external code might be able to detect a difference between various Not-a-Number values, but such behaviour is implementation-dependent; to ECMAScript code, all
NaN
values are indistinguishable from each other.
Note
The bit pattern that might be observed in an ArrayBuffer (see
24.1
) after a Number value has been stored into it is not necessarily the same as the internal representation of that Number value used by the ECMAScript implementation.
There are two other special values, called
positive Infinity
and
negative Infinity
. For brevity, these values are also referred to for expository purposes by the symbols
+∞
and
-∞
, respectively. (Note that these two infinite Number values are produced by the program expressions
+Infinity
(or simply
Infinity
) and
-Infinity
.)
The other 18437736874454810624 (that is,
64
-2
53
) values are called the finite numbers. Half of these are positive numbers and half are negative numbers; for every finite positive Number value there is a corresponding negative value having the same magnitude.
Note that there is both a
positive zero
and a
negative zero
. For brevity, these values are also referred to for expository purposes by the symbols
+0
and
-0
, respectively. (Note that these two different zero Number values are produced by the program expressions
+0
(or simply
) and
-0
.)
The 18437736874454810622 (that is,
64
-2
53
-2
) finite nonzero values are of two kinds:
18428729675200069632 (that is,
64
-2
54
) of them are normalized, having the form
× 2
where
is +1 or -1,
is a positive integer less than 2
53
but not less than 2
52
, and
is an integer ranging from -1074 to 971, inclusive.
The remaining 9007199254740990 (that is,
53
-2
) values are denormalized, having the form
× 2
where
is +1 or -1,
is a positive integer less than 2
52
, and
is -1074.
Note that all the positive and negative integers whose magnitude is no greater than 2
53
are representable in the Number type (indeed, the integer 0 has two representations,
+0
and
-0
).
A finite number has an
odd significand
if it is nonzero and the integer
used to express it (in one of the two forms shown above) is odd. Otherwise, it has an
even significand
In this specification, the phrase “the Number value for
” where
represents an exact nonzero real mathematical quantity (which might even be an irrational number such as π) means a Number value chosen in the following manner. Consider the set of all finite values of the Number type, with
-0
removed and with two additional values added to it that are not representable in the Number type, namely 2
1024
(which is
+1 × 2
53
× 2
971
) and
-2
1024
(which is
-1 × 2
53
× 2
971
). Choose the member of this set that is closest in value to
. If two values of the set are equally close, then the one with an even significand is chosen; for this purpose, the two extra values 2
1024
and
-2
1024
are considered to have even significands. Finally, if 2
1024
was chosen, replace it with
+∞
; if
-2
1024
was chosen, replace it with
-∞
; if
+0
was chosen, replace it with
-0
if and only if
is less than zero; any other chosen value is used unchanged. The result is the Number value for
. (This procedure corresponds exactly to the behaviour of the IEEE 754-2008 “round to nearest, ties to even” mode.)
Some ECMAScript operators deal only with integers in specific ranges such as
-2
31
through
31
-1
, inclusive, or in the range 0 through
16
-1
, inclusive. These operators accept any value of the Number type but first convert each such value to an integer value in the expected range. See the descriptions of the numeric conversion operations in
7.1
6.1.7
The Object Type
An Object is logically a collection of properties. Each property is either a data property, or an accessor property:
data property
associates a key value with an
ECMAScript language value
and a set of Boolean attributes.
An
accessor property
associates a key value with one or two accessor functions, and a set of Boolean attributes. The accessor functions are used to store or retrieve an
ECMAScript language value
that is associated with the property.
Properties are identified using key values. A property key value is either an ECMAScript String value or a Symbol value. All String and Symbol values, including the empty string, are valid as property keys. A
property name
is a property key that is a String value.
An
integer index
is a String-valued property key that is a canonical numeric String (see
7.1.16
) and whose numeric value is either
+0
or a positive integer ≤ 2
53
-1. An
array index
is an integer index whose numeric value
is in the range
+0 ≤
< 2
32
-1
Property keys are used to access properties and their values. There are two kinds of access for properties:
get
and
set
, corresponding to value retrieval and assignment, respectively. The properties accessible via get and set access includes both
own properties
that are a direct part of an object and
inherited properties
which are provided by another associated object via a property inheritance relationship. Inherited properties may be either own or inherited properties of the associated object. Each own property of an object must each have a key value that is distinct from the key values of the other own properties of that object.
All objects are logically collections of properties, but there are multiple forms of objects that differ in their semantics for accessing and manipulating their properties.
Ordinary objects
are the most common form of objects and have the default object semantics. An
exotic object
is any form of object whose property semantics differ in any way from the default semantics.
6.1.7.1
Property Attributes
Attributes are used in this specification to define and explain the state of Object properties. A data property associates a key value with the attributes listed in
Table 2
Table 2: Attributes of a Data Property
Attribute Name
Value Domain
Description
[[Value]]
Any
ECMAScript language type
The value retrieved by a get access of the property.
[[Writable]]
Boolean
If
false
, attempts by ECMAScript code to change the property's [[Value]] attribute using [[Set]] will not succeed.
[[Enumerable]]
Boolean
If
true
, the property will be enumerated by a for-in enumeration (see
13.7.5
). Otherwise, the property is said to be non-enumerable.
[[Configurable]]
Boolean
If
false
, attempts to delete the property, change the property to be an accessor property, or change its attributes (other than [[Value]], or changing [[Writable]] to
false
) will fail.
An accessor property associates a key value with the attributes listed in
Table 3
Table 3: Attributes of an Accessor Property
Attribute Name
Value Domain
Description
[[Get]]
Object | Undefined
If the value is an Object it must be a function object. The function's [[Call]] internal method (
Table 6
) is called with an empty arguments list to retrieve the property value each time a get access of the property is performed.
[[Set]]
Object | Undefined
If the value is an Object it must be a function object. The function's [[Call]] internal method (
Table 6
) is called with an arguments list containing the assigned value as its sole argument each time a set access of the property is performed. The effect of a property's [[Set]] internal method may, but is not required to, have an effect on the value returned by subsequent calls to the property's [[Get]] internal method.
[[Enumerable]]
Boolean
If
true
, the property is to be enumerated by a for-in enumeration (see
13.7.5
). Otherwise, the property is said to be non-enumerable.
[[Configurable]]
Boolean
If
false
, attempts to delete the property, change the property to be a data property, or change its attributes will fail.
If the initial values of a property's attributes are not explicitly specified by this specification, the default value defined in
Table 4
is used.

Object Internal Methods and Internal Slots
The actual semantics of objects, in ECMAScript, are specified via algorithms called
internal methods
. Each object in an ECMAScript engine is associated with a set of internal methods that defines its runtime behaviour. These internal methods are not part of the ECMAScript language. They are defined by this specification purely for expository purposes. However, each object within an implementation of ECMAScript must behave as specified by the internal methods associated with it. The exact manner in which this is accomplished is determined by the implementation.
Internal method names are polymorphic. This means that different object values may perform different algorithms when a common internal method name is invoked upon them. That actual object upon which an internal method is invoked is the “target” of the invocation. If, at runtime, the implementation of an algorithm attempts to use an internal method of an object that the object does not support, a
TypeError
exception is thrown.
Internal slots correspond to internal state that is associated with objects and used by various ECMAScript specification algorithms. Internal slots are not object properties and they are not inherited. Depending upon the specific internal slot specification, such state may consist of values of any
ECMAScript language type
or of specific ECMAScript specification type values. Unless explicitly specified otherwise, internal slots are allocated as part of the process of creating an object and may not be dynamically added to an object. Unless specified otherwise, the initial value of an internal slot is the value
undefined
. Various algorithms within this specification create objects that have internal slots. However, the ECMAScript language provides no direct way to associate internal slots with an object.
Internal methods and internal slots are identified within this specification using names enclosed in double square brackets [[ ]].
Table 5
summarizes the
essential internal methods
used by this specification that are applicable to all objects created or manipulated by ECMAScript code. Every object must have algorithms for all of the essential internal methods. However, all objects do not necessarily use the same algorithms for those methods.
The “Signature” column of
Table 5
and other similar tables describes the invocation pattern for each internal method. The invocation pattern always includes a parenthesized list of descriptive parameter names. If a parameter name is the same as an ECMAScript type name then the name describes the required type of the parameter value. If an internal method explicitly returns a value, its parameter list is followed by the symbol “→” and the type name of the returned value. The type names used in signatures refer to the types defined in clause
augmented by the following additional names. “
any
” means the value may be any
ECMAScript language type
. An internal method implicitly returns a
Completion Record
. In addition to its parameters, an internal method always has access to the object that is the target of the method invocation.

propertyKey
[[Get]]
propertyKey
Receiver

propertyKey
, to have the state described by
PropertyDescriptor
. Return
true
if that property was successfully created/updated or

Return a
List
whose elements are all of the own property keys for the object.
Table 6
summarizes additional essential internal methods that are supported by objects that may be called as functions. A
function object
is an object that supports the [[Call]] internal methods. A
constructor
(also referred to as a
constructor function
) is a function object that supports the [[Construct]] internal method.
Table 6: Additional Essential Internal Methods of Function Objects
Internal Method
Signature
Description
[[Call]]
any
, a
List
of
any
any
Executes code associated with this object. Invoked via a function call expression. The arguments to the internal method are a
this
value and a list containing the arguments passed to the function by a call expression. Objects that implement this internal method are
callable
[[Construct]]
(a
List
of
any
, Object)
Object
Creates an object. Invoked via the
new
or
super
operators. The first argument to the internal method is a list containing the arguments of the operator. The second argument is the object to which the
new
operator was initially applied. Objects that implement this internal method are called
constructors
. A function object is not necessarily a constructor and such non-constructor function objects do not have a [[Construct]] internal method.
The semantics of the essential internal methods for ordinary objects and standard exotic objects are specified in clause
. If any specified use of an internal method of an exotic object is not supported by an implementation, that usage must throw a
TypeError
exception when attempted.
6.1.7.3
Invariants of the Essential Internal Methods
The Internal Methods of Objects of an ECMAScript engine must conform to the list of invariants specified below. Ordinary ECMAScript Objects as well as all standard exotic objects in this specification maintain these invariants. ECMAScript Proxy objects maintain these invariants by means of runtime checks on the result of traps invoked on the [[ProxyHandler]] object.
Any implementation provided exotic objects must also maintain these invariants for those objects. Violation of these invariants may cause ECMAScript code to have unpredictable behaviour and create security issues. However, violation of these invariants must never compromise the memory safety of an implementation.
An implementation must not allow these invariants to be circumvented in any manner such as by providing alternative interfaces that implement the functionality of the essential internal methods without enforcing their invariants.
Definitions:
The
target
of an internal method is the object upon which the internal method is called.
A target is
non-extensible
if it has been observed to return false from its [[IsExtensible]] internal method, or true from its [[PreventExtensions]] internal method.
non-existent
property is a property that does not exist as an own property on a non-extensible target.
All references to
SameValue
are according to the definition of the
SameValue
algorithm.
[[GetPrototypeOf]] ( )
The Type of the return value must be either Object or Null.
If target is non-extensible, and [[GetPrototypeOf]] returns a value v, then any future calls to [[GetPrototypeOf]] should return the
SameValue
as v.
Note 1
An object's prototype chain should have finite length (that is, starting from any object, recursively applying the [[GetPrototypeOf]] internal method to its result should eventually lead to the value null). However, this requirement is not enforceable as an object level invariant if the prototype chain includes any exotic objects that do not use the ordinary object definition of [[GetPrototypeOf]]. Such a circular prototype chain may result in infinite loops when accessing object properties.
[[SetPrototypeOf]] (
The Type of the return value must be Boolean.
If target is non-extensible, [[SetPrototypeOf]] must return false, unless V is the
SameValue
as the target's observed [[GetPrototypeOf]] value.
[[IsExtensible]] ( )
The Type of the return value must be Boolean.
If [[IsExtensible]] returns false, all future calls to [[IsExtensible]] on the target must return false.
[[PreventExtensions]] ( )
The Type of the return value must be Boolean.
If [[PreventExtensions]] returns true, all future calls to [[IsExtensible]] on the target must return false and the target is now considered non-extensible.
[[GetOwnProperty]] (
The Type of the return value must be either
Property Descriptor
or Undefined.
If the Type of the return value is
Property Descriptor
, the return value must be a complete property descriptor (see
6.2.4.6
).
If a property P is described as a data property with Desc.[[Value]] equal to v and Desc.[[Writable]] and Desc.[[Configurable]] are both false, then the
SameValue
must be returned for the Desc.[[Value]] attribute of the property on all future calls to [[GetOwnProperty]] ( P ).
If P's attributes other than [[Writable]] may change over time or if the property might disappear, then P's [[Configurable]] attribute must be true.
If the [[Writable]] attribute may change from false to true, then the [[Configurable]] attribute must be true.
If the target is non-extensible and P is non-existent, then all future calls to [[GetOwnProperty]] (P) on the target must describe P as non-existent (i.e. [[GetOwnProperty]] (P) must return undefined).
Note 2
As a consequence of the third invariant, if a property is described as a data property and it may return different values over time, then either or both of the Desc.[[Writable]] and Desc.[[Configurable]] attributes must be true even if no mechanism to change the value is exposed via the other internal methods.
[[DefineOwnProperty]] (
Desc
The Type of the return value must be Boolean.
[[DefineOwnProperty]] must return false if P has previously been observed as a non-configurable own property of the target, unless either:
P is a non-configurable writable own data property. A non-configurable writable data property can be changed into a non-configurable non-writable data property.
All attributes in Desc are the
SameValue
as P's attributes.
[[DefineOwnProperty]] (P, Desc) must return false if target is non-extensible and P is a non-existent own property. That is, a non-extensible target object cannot be extended with new properties.
[[HasProperty]] (
The Type of the return value must be Boolean.
If P was previously observed as a non-configurable data or accessor own property of the target, [[HasProperty]] must return true.
[[Get]] (
Receiver
If P was previously observed as a non-configurable, non-writable own data property of the target with value v, then [[Get]] must return the
SameValue
If P was previously observed as a non-configurable own accessor property of the target whose [[Get]] attribute is undefined, the [[Get]] operation must return undefined.
[[Set]] (
Receiver
The Type of the return value must be Boolean.
If P was previously observed as a non-configurable, non-writable own data property of the target, then [[Set]] must return false unless V is the
SameValue
as P's [[Value]] attribute.
If P was previously observed as a non-configurable own accessor property of the target whose [[Set]] attribute is undefined, the [[Set]] operation must return false.
[[Delete]] (
The Type of the return value must be Boolean.
If P was previously observed to be a non-configurable own data or accessor property of the target, [[Delete]] must return false.
[[OwnPropertyKeys]] ( )
The return value must be a
List
The Type of each element of the returned
List
is either String or Symbol.
The returned
List
must contain at least the keys of all non-configurable own properties that have previously been observed.
If the object is non-extensible, the returned
List
must contain only the keys of all own properties of the object that are observable using [[GetOwnProperty]].
[[Construct]] ( )
The Type of the return value must be Object.
6.1.7.4
Well-Known Intrinsic Objects
Well-known intrinsics are built-in objects that are explicitly referenced by the algorithms of this specification and which usually have
realm
-specific identities. Unless otherwise specified each intrinsic object actually corresponds to a set of similar objects, one per
realm
Within this specification a reference such as %name% means the intrinsic object, associated with the current
realm
, corresponding to the name. Determination of the current
realm
and its intrinsics is described in
8.3

ECMAScript Specification Types
A specification type corresponds to meta-values that are used within algorithms to describe the semantics of ECMAScript language constructs and ECMAScript language types. The specification types are
Reference
List
Completion
Property Descriptor
Lexical Environment
Environment Record
, and
Data Block
. Specification type values are specification artefacts that do not necessarily correspond to any specific entity within an ECMAScript implementation. Specification type values may be used to describe intermediate results of ECMAScript expression evaluation but such values cannot be stored as properties of objects or values of ECMAScript language variables.
6.2.1
The List and Record Specification Types
The
List
type is used to explain the evaluation of argument lists (see
12.3.6
) in
new
expressions, in function calls, and in other algorithms where a simple ordered list of values is needed. Values of the List type are simply ordered sequences of list elements containing the individual values. These sequences may be of any length. The elements of a list may be randomly accessed using 0-origin indices. For notational convenience an array-like syntax can be used to access List elements. For example,
arguments
[2] is shorthand for saying the 3
rd
element of the List
arguments
For notational convenience within this specification, a literal syntax can be used to express a new List value. For example, « 1, 2 » defines a List value that has two elements each of which is initialized to a specific value. A new empty List can be expressed as « ».
The
Record
type is used to describe data aggregations within the algorithms of this specification. A Record type value consists of one or more named fields. The value of each field is either an ECMAScript value or an abstract value represented by a name associated with the Record type. Field names are always enclosed in double brackets, for example [[Value]].
For notational convenience within this specification, an object literal-like syntax can be used to express a Record value. For example, {[[Field1]]: 42, [[Field2]]:
false
, [[Field3]]:
empty
} defines a Record value that has three fields, each of which is initialized to a specific value. Field name order is not significant. Any fields that are not explicitly listed are considered to be absent.
In specification text and algorithms, dot notation may be used to refer to a specific field of a Record value. For example, if R is the record shown in the previous paragraph then R.[[Field2]] is shorthand for “the field of R named [[Field2]]”.
Schema for commonly used Record field combinations may be named, and that name may be used as a prefix to a literal Record value to identify the specific kind of aggregations that is being described. For example: PropertyDescriptor{[[Value]]: 42, [[Writable]]:
false
, [[Configurable]]:
true
}.
6.2.2
The Completion Record Specification Type
The Completion type is a
Record
used to explain the runtime propagation of values and control flow such as the behaviour of statements (
break
continue
return
and
throw
) that perform nonlocal transfers of control.
Values of the Completion type are
Record
values whose fields are defined as by
Table 8
. Such values are referred to as
Completion Record
s.
Table 8: Completion Record Fields
Field
Value
Meaning
[[Type]]
One of
normal
break
continue
return
, or
throw
The type of completion that occurred.
[[Value]]
any
ECMAScript language value
or
empty
The value that was produced.
[[Target]]
any ECMAScript string or
empty
The target label for directed control transfers.
The term “
abrupt completion
” refers to any completion with a [[Type]] value other than
normal
6.2.2.1
NormalCompletion
The abstract operation NormalCompletion with a single
argument
, such as:
Return
NormalCompletion
argument
).
Is a shorthand that is defined as follows:
Return
Completion
{[[Type]]:
normal
, [[Value]]:
argument
, [[Target]]:
empty
}.
6.2.2.2
Implicit Completion Values
The algorithms of this specification often implicitly return
Completion
Records whose [[Type]] is
normal
. Unless it is otherwise obvious from the context, an algorithm statement that returns a value that is not a
Completion Record
, such as:
Return
"Infinity"
means the same thing as:
Return
NormalCompletion
"Infinity"
).
However, if the value expression of a “return” statement is a
Completion Record
construction literal, the resulting
Completion Record
is returned. If the value expression is a call to an abstract operation, the “return” statement simply returns the
Completion Record
produced by the abstract operation.
The abstract operation
Completion
completionRecord
) is used to emphasize that a previously computed
Completion Record
is being returned. The
Completion
abstract operation takes a single argument,
completionRecord
, and performs the following steps:
Assert:
completionRecord
is a
Completion Record
Return
completionRecord
as the
Completion Record
of this abstract operation.
A “return” statement without a value in an algorithm step means the same thing as:
Return
NormalCompletion
undefined
).
Any reference to a
Completion Record
value that is in a context that does not explicitly require a complete
Completion Record
value is equivalent to an explicit reference to the [[Value]] field of the
Completion Record
value unless the
Completion Record
is an
abrupt completion
6.2.2.3
Throw an Exception
Algorithms steps that say to throw an exception, such as
Throw a
TypeError
exception.
mean the same things as:
Return
Completion
{[[Type]]:
throw
, [[Value]]: a newly created
TypeError
object, [[Target]]:
empty
}.
6.2.2.4
ReturnIfAbrupt
Algorithms steps that say or are otherwise equivalent to:
ReturnIfAbrupt
argument
).
mean the same thing as:
If
argument
is an
abrupt completion
, return
argument
Else if
argument
is a
Completion Record
, let
argument
be
argument
.[[Value]].
Algorithms steps that say or are otherwise equivalent to:
ReturnIfAbrupt
(AbstractOperation()).
mean the same thing as:
Let
hygienicTemp
be AbstractOperation().
If
hygienicTemp
is an
abrupt completion
, return
hygienicTemp
Else if
hygienicTemp
is a
Completion Record
, let
hygienicTemp
be
hygienicTemp
.[[Value]].
Where
hygienicTemp
is ephemeral and visible only in the steps pertaining to ReturnIfAbrupt.
6.2.2.5
UpdateEmpty (
completionRecord
value
The abstract operation UpdateEmpty with arguments
completionRecord
and
value
performs the following steps:
Assert: If
completionRecord
.[[Type]] is either
return
or
throw
, then
completionRecord
.[[Value]] is not
empty
If
completionRecord
.[[Value]] is not
empty
, return
Completion
completionRecord
).
Return
Completion
{[[Type]]:
completionRecord
.[[Type]], [[Value]]:
value
, [[Target]]:
completionRecord
.[[Target]] }.
6.2.3
The Reference Specification Type
Note
The Reference type is used to explain the behaviour of such operators as
delete
typeof
, the assignment operators, the
super
keyword and other language features. For example, the left-hand operand of an assignment is expected to produce a reference.
Reference
is a resolved name or property binding. A Reference consists of three components, the
base

referenced name
and the Boolean valued
strict reference
flag. The
base
value is either
undefined
, an Object, a Boolean, a String, a Symbol, a Number, or an
Environment Record
. A
base
value of
undefined
indicates that the Reference could not be resolved to a binding. The
referenced name
is a String or Symbol value.
A Super Reference is a Reference that is used to represents a name binding that was expressed using the super keyword. A Super Reference has an additional
thisValue
component and its
base
value will never be an

The following abstract operations are used in this specification to access the components of references:
GetBase(V). Returns the
base

The Property Descriptor Specification Type
The
Property Descriptor
type is used to explain the manipulation and reification of Object property attributes. Values of the Property Descriptor type are Records. Each field's name is an attribute name and its value is a corresponding attribute value as specified in
6.1.7.1
. In addition, any field may be present or absent. The schema name used within this specification to tag literal descriptions of Property Descriptor records is “PropertyDescriptor”.
Property Descriptor values may be further classified as data Property Descriptors and accessor Property Descriptors based upon the existence or use of certain fields. A data Property Descriptor is one that includes any fields named either [[Value]] or [[Writable]]. An accessor Property Descriptor is one that includes any fields named either [[Get]] or [[Set]]. Any Property Descriptor may have fields named [[Enumerable]] and [[Configurable]]. A Property Descriptor value may not be both a data Property Descriptor and an accessor Property Descriptor; however, it may be neither. A generic Property Descriptor is a Property Descriptor value that is neither a data Property Descriptor nor an accessor Property Descriptor. A fully populated Property Descriptor is one that is either an accessor Property Descriptor or a data Property Descriptor and that has all of the fields that correspond to the property attributes defined in either
Table 2
or
Table 3
The following abstract operations are used in this specification to operate upon Property Descriptor values:
6.2.4.1

The Lexical Environment and Environment Record Specification Types
The
Lexical Environment
and
Environment Record
types are used to explain the behaviour of name resolution in nested functions and blocks. These types and the operations upon them are defined in
8.1
6.2.6
Data Blocks
The
Data Block
specification type is used to describe a distinct and mutable sequence of byte-sized (8 bit) numeric values. A Data Block value is created with a fixed number of bytes that each have the initial value 0.
For notational convenience within this specification, an array-like syntax can be used to access the individual bytes of a Data Block value. This notation presents a Data Block value as a 0-origined integer indexed sequence of bytes. For example, if
db
is a 5 byte Data Block value then
db
[2] can be used to access its 3
rd
byte.
The following abstract operations are used in this specification to operate upon Data Block values:
6.2.6.1
CreateByteDataBlock (
size
When the abstract operation CreateByteDataBlock is called with integer argument
size
, the following steps are taken:
Assert:
size
≥0.
Let
db

Data Block
value consisting of
size
bytes. If it is impossible to create such a
Data Block
, throw a
RangeError
exception.
Set all of the bytes of
db
to 0.
Return
db
6.2.6.2
CopyDataBlockBytes (
toBlock

When the abstract operation CopyDataBlockBytes is called, the following steps are taken:
Assert:
fromBlock
and
toBlock
are distinct
Data Block
values.
Assert:
fromIndex
toIndex
, and
count
are integer values ≥ 0.
Let
fromSize

Increment
toIndex
and
fromIndex
each by 1.
Decrement
count
by 1.
Return
NormalCompletion

).
Abstract Operations
These operations are not a part of the ECMAScript language; they are defined here to solely to aid the specification of the semantics of the ECMAScript language. Other, more specialized abstract operations are defined throughout this specification.
7.1
Type Conversion
The ECMAScript language implicitly performs automatic type conversion as needed. To clarify the semantics of certain constructs it is useful to define a set of conversion abstract operations. The conversion abstract operations are polymorphic; they can accept a value of any
ECMAScript language type
. But no other specification types are used with these operations.
7.1.1
ToPrimitive (
input
[ ,
PreferredType
] )
The abstract operation ToPrimitive takes an
input
argument and an optional argument
PreferredType
. The abstract operation ToPrimitive converts its
input
argument to a non-Object type. If an object is capable of converting to more than one primitive type, it may use the optional hint
PreferredType
to favour that type. Conversion occurs according to

If

Throw a

exception.
If

Return ? OrdinaryToPrimitive(

Assert:

Assert:

"string"
or

If

Let

If

Throw a

Note
When ToPrimitive is called with no hint, then it generally behaves as if the hint were Number. However, objects may over-ride this behaviour by defining a @@toPrimitive method. Of the objects defined in this specification only Date objects (see
20.3.4.45
) and Symbol objects (see
19.4.3.4
) over-ride the default ToPrimitive behaviour. Date objects treat no hint as if the hint were String.

7.1.3.1
ToNumber Applied to the String Type
ToNumber
applied to Strings applies the following grammar to the input String interpreted as a sequence of UTF-16 encoded code points (
6.1.4
). If the grammar cannot interpret the String as an expansion of
StringNumericLiteral
, then the result of
ToNumber
is
NaN
Note 1
The terminal symbols of this grammar are all composed of Unicode BMP code points so the result will be
NaN
if the string contains the UTF-16 encoding of any supplementary code points or any unpaired surrogate code points.

Runtime Semantics: MV's
The conversion of a String to a Number value is similar overall to the determination of the Number value for a numeric literal (see
11.8.3
), but some of the details are different, so the process for converting a String numeric literal to a value of Number type is given here. This value is determined in two steps: first, a mathematical value (MV) is derived from the String numeric literal; second, this mathematical value is rounded as described below. The MV on any grammar symbol, not provided below, is the MV for that symbol defined in
11.8.3.1
The MV of

as appropriate.)

Once the exact MV for a String numeric literal has been determined, it is then rounded to a value of the Number type. If the MV is 0, then the rounded value is
+0
unless the first non white space code point in the String numeric literal is
"-"
, in which case the rounded value is
-0
. Otherwise, the rounded value must be the Number value for the MV (in the sense defined in
6.1.6
), unless the literal includes a
StrUnsignedDecimalLiteral
and the literal has more than 20 significant digits, in which case the Number value may be either the Number value for the MV of a literal produced by replacing each significant digit after the 20th with a 0 digit or the Number value for the MV of a literal produced by replacing each significant digit after the 20th with a 0 digit and then incrementing the literal at the 20th digit position. A digit is significant if it is not part of an
ExponentPart
and
it is not
; or
there is a nonzero digit to its left and there is a nonzero digit, not in the
ExponentPart
, to its right.

Abstract Relational Comparison
The comparison
, where
and
are values, produces
true
false
, or
undefined
(which indicates that at least one operand is
NaN
). In addition to
and
the algorithm takes a Boolean flag named
LeftFirst
as a parameter. The flag is used to control the order in which operations with potentially visible side-effects are performed upon
and
. It is necessary because ECMAScript specifies left to right evaluation of expressions. The default value of
LeftFirst
is
true
and indicates that the
parameter corresponds to an expression that occurs to the left of the
parameter's corresponding expression. If
LeftFirst
is
false
, the reverse is the case and operations must be performed upon
before
. Such a comparison is performed as follows:
If the
LeftFirst
flag is
true

Note 1
Step 3 differs from step 7 in the algorithm for the addition operator
12.8.3
) in using “and” instead of “or”.
Note 2
The comparison of Strings uses a simple lexicographic ordering on sequences of code unit values. There is no attempt to use the more complex, semantically oriented definitions of character or string equality and collating order defined in the Unicode specification. Therefore String values that are canonically equal according to the Unicode standard could test as unequal. In effect this algorithm assumes that both Strings are already in normalized form. Also, note that for strings containing supplementary characters, lexicographic ordering on sequences of UTF-16 code unit values differs from that on sequences of code point values.

Executable Code and Execution Contexts
8.1
Lexical Environments
Lexical Environment
is a specification type used to define the association of
Identifier
s to specific variables and functions based upon the lexical nesting structure of ECMAScript code. A Lexical Environment consists of an
Environment Record
and a possibly null reference to an
outer
Lexical Environment. Usually a Lexical Environment is associated with some specific syntactic structure of ECMAScript code such as a
FunctionDeclaration
, a
BlockStatement
, or a
Catch
clause of a
TryStatement
and a new Lexical Environment is created each time such code is evaluated.
An
Environment Record
records the identifier bindings that are created within the scope of its associated Lexical Environment. It is referred to as the Lexical Environment's
EnvironmentRecord
The outer environment reference is used to model the logical nesting of Lexical Environment values. The outer reference of a (inner) Lexical Environment is a reference to the Lexical Environment that logically surrounds the inner Lexical Environment. An outer Lexical Environment may, of course, have its own outer Lexical Environment. A Lexical Environment may serve as the outer environment for multiple inner Lexical Environments. For example, if a
FunctionDeclaration
contains two nested
FunctionDeclaration
s then the Lexical Environments of each of the nested functions will have as their outer Lexical Environment the Lexical Environment of the current evaluation of the surrounding function.
global environment
is a Lexical Environment which does not have an outer environment. The global environment's outer environment reference is
null
. A global environment's EnvironmentRecord may be prepopulated with identifier bindings and includes an associated
global object
whose properties provide some of the global environment's identifier bindings. As ECMAScript code is executed, additional properties may be added to the global object and the initial properties may be modified.
module environment
is a Lexical Environment that contains the bindings for the top level declarations of a
Module
. It also contains the bindings that are explicitly imported by the
Module
. The outer environment of a module environment is a global environment.
function environment
is a Lexical Environment that corresponds to the invocation of an ECMAScript function object. A function environment may establish a new
this
binding. A function environment also captures the state necessary to support
super
method invocations.
Lexical Environments and
Environment Record
values are purely specification mechanisms and need not correspond to any specific artefact of an ECMAScript implementation. It is impossible for an ECMAScript program to directly access or manipulate such values.
8.1.1
Environment Records
There are two primary kinds of
Environment Record
values used in this specification:
declarative Environment Records
and
object Environment Records
. Declarative Environment Records are used to define the effect of ECMAScript language syntactic elements such as
FunctionDeclaration
s,
VariableDeclaration
s, and
Catch
clauses that directly associate identifier bindings with ECMAScript language values. Object Environment Records are used to define the effect of ECMAScript elements such as
WithStatement
that associate identifier bindings with the properties of some object. Global Environment Records and function Environment Records are specializations that are used for specifically for
Script
global declarations and for top-level declarations within functions.
For specification purposes Environment Record values are values of the
Record
specification type and can be thought of as existing in a simple object-oriented hierarchy where Environment Record is an abstract class with three concrete subclasses, declarative Environment Record, object Environment Record, and global Environment Record. Function Environment Records and module Environment Records are subclasses of declarative Environment Record. The abstract class includes the abstract specification methods defined in
Table 15
. These abstract methods have distinct concrete algorithms for each of the concrete subclasses.
Table 15: Abstract Methods of Environment Records
Method
Purpose
HasBinding(N)
Determine if an Environment Record has a binding for the String value
. Return
true
if it does and
false
if it does not
CreateMutableBinding(N, D)
Create a new but uninitialized mutable binding in an Environment Record. The String value
is the text of the bound name. If the Boolean argument
is
true
the binding may be subsequently deleted.
CreateImmutableBinding(N, S)
Create a new but uninitialized immutable binding in an Environment Record. The String value
is the text of the bound name. If
is
true
then attempts to access the value of the binding before it is initialized or set it after it has been initialized will always throw an exception, regardless of the strict mode setting of operations that reference that binding.
InitializeBinding(N, V)
Set the value of an already existing but uninitialized binding in an Environment Record. The String value
is the text of the bound name.

true
and the binding does not exist throw a
ReferenceError
exception. If the binding exists but is uninitialized a
ReferenceError
is thrown, regardless of the value of
DeleteBinding(N)
Delete a binding from an Environment Record. The String value
is the text of the bound name. If a binding for
exists, remove the binding and return
true
. If the binding exists but cannot be removed return
false
. If the binding does not exist return
true
HasThisBinding()
Determine if an Environment Record establishes a
this
binding. Return
true
if it does and
false
if it does not.
HasSuperBinding()
Determine if an Environment Record establishes a
super
method binding. Return
true
if it does and
false
if it does not.
WithBaseObject()
If this Environment Record is associated with a
with
statement, return the with object. Otherwise, return
undefined
8.1.1.1
Declarative Environment Records
Each declarative
Environment Record
is associated with an ECMAScript program scope containing variable, constant, let, class, module, import, and/or function declarations. A declarative
Environment Record
binds the set of identifiers defined by the declarations contained within its scope.
The behaviour of the concrete specification methods for declarative Environment Records is defined by the following algorithms.
8.1.1.1.1

8.1.1.2
Object Environment Records
Each object
Environment Record
is associated with an object called its
binding object
. An object
Environment Record
binds the set of string identifier names that directly correspond to the property names of its binding object. Property keys that are not strings in the form of an
IdentifierName
are not included in the set of bound identifiers. Both own and inherited properties are included in the set regardless of the setting of their [[Enumerable]] attribute. Because properties can be dynamically added and deleted from objects, the set of identifiers bound by an object
Environment Record
may potentially change as a side-effect of any operation that adds or deletes properties. Any bindings that are created as a result of such a side-effect are considered to be a mutable binding even if the Writable attribute of the corresponding property has the value
false
. Immutable bindings do not exist for object Environment Records.
Object Environment Records created for
with
statements (
13.11
) can provide their binding object as an implicit
this
value for use in function calls. The capability is controlled by a
withEnvironment
Boolean value that is associated with each object
Environment Record
. By default, the value of
withEnvironment
is
false
for any object
Environment Record
The behaviour of the concrete specification methods for object Environment Records is defined by the following algorithms.
8.1.1.2.1
HasBinding (
The concrete
Environment Record
method HasBinding for object Environment Records determines if its associated binding object has a property whose name is the value of the argument
Let
envRec

CreateMutableBinding (
The concrete

method CreateMutableBinding for object Environment Records creates in an
Environment Record
's associated binding object a property whose name is the String value and initializes it to the value
undefined

Note
Normally
envRec
will not have a binding for

DefinePropertyOrThrow
may result in an existing binding being replaced or shadowed or cause an
abrupt completion
to be returned.
8.1.1.2.3
CreateImmutableBinding (
The concrete
Environment Record
method CreateImmutableBinding is never used within this specification in association with object Environment Records.
8.1.1.2.4
InitializeBinding (
The concrete
Environment Record
method InitializeBinding for object Environment Records is used to set the bound value of the current binding of the identifier whose name is the value of the argument
to the value of argument
. An uninitialized binding for

Let
envRec

Note
In this specification, all uses of CreateMutableBinding for object Environment Records are immediately followed by a call to InitializeBinding for the same name. Hence, implementations do not need to explicitly track the initialization state of individual object
Environment Record
bindings.
8.1.1.2.5
SetMutableBinding (
The concrete
Environment Record
method SetMutableBinding for object Environment Records attempts to set the value of the
Environment Record
's associated binding object's property whose name is the value of the argument
to the value of argument

8.1.1.2.6
GetBindingValue (
The concrete
Environment Record
method GetBindingValue for object Environment Records returns the value of its associated binding object's property whose name is the String value of the argument identifier
. The property should already exist but if it does not the result depends upon the value of the
argument:

8.1.1.3
Function Environment Records
A function
Environment Record
is a declarative
Environment Record
that is used to represent the top-level scope of a function and, if the function is not an
ArrowFunction
, provides a
this
binding. If a function is not an
ArrowFunction
function and references
super
, its function
Environment Record
also contains the state that is used to perform
super
method invocations from within the function.
Function Environment Records have the additional state fields listed in
Table 16

Meaning
[[ThisValue]]

This is the
this
value used for this invocation of the function.

Environment Record
to be created.
[[HomeObject]]

If the associated function has
super
property accesses and is not an
ArrowFunction
, [[HomeObject]] is the object that the function is bound to as a method. The default value for [[HomeObject]] is
undefined
[[NewTarget]]
Object |

If this
Environment Record
was created by the [[Construct]] internal method, [[NewTarget]] is the value of the [[Construct]]
newTarget
parameter. Otherwise, its value is
undefined
Function Environment Records support all of the declarative
Environment Record
methods listed in
Table 15
and share the same specifications for all of those methods except for HasThisBinding and HasSuperBinding. In addition, function Environment Records support the methods listed in
Table 17
Table 17: Additional Methods of Function Environment Records

Global Environment Records
A global
Environment Record
is used to represent the outer most scope that is shared by all of the ECMAScript
Script
elements that are processed in a common
realm
. A global
Environment Record
provides the bindings for built-in globals (clause
18
), properties of the
global object
, and for all top-level declarations (
13.2.8
13.2.10
) that occur within a
Script
A global
Environment Record
is logically a single record but it is specified as a composite encapsulating an object
Environment Record
and a declarative
Environment Record
. The object
Environment Record
has as its base object the
global object
of the associated
Realm Record
. This
global object
is the value returned by the global
Environment Record
's GetThisBinding concrete method. The object
Environment Record
component of a global
Environment Record
contains the bindings for all built-in globals (clause
18
) and all bindings introduced by a
FunctionDeclaration
GeneratorDeclaration
, or
VariableStatement
contained in global code. The bindings for all other ECMAScript declarations in global code are contained in the declarative
Environment Record
component of the global
Environment Record
Properties may be created directly on a
global object
. Hence, the object
Environment Record
component of a global
Environment Record
may contain both bindings created explicitly by
FunctionDeclaration
GeneratorDeclaration
, or
VariableDeclaration
declarations and bindings created implicitly as properties of the
global object
. In order to identify which bindings were explicitly created using declarations, a global
Environment Record
maintains a list of the names bound using its CreateGlobalVarBinding and CreateGlobalFunctionBinding concrete methods.
Global Environment Records have the additional fields listed in
Table 18
and the additional methods listed in
Table 19

Realms
Before it is evaluated, all ECMAScript code must be associated with a
realm
. Conceptually, a realm consists of a set of intrinsic objects, an ECMAScript
global environment
, all of the ECMAScript code that is loaded within the scope of that
global environment
, and other associated state and resources.
A realm is represented in this specification as a
Realm Record
with the fields specified in
Table 21

Template objects are canonicalized separately for each realm using its Realm Record's [[TemplateMap]]. Each [[Strings]] value is a
List
containing, in source text order, the raw String values of a
TemplateLiteral
that has been evaluated. The associated [[Array]] value is the corresponding template object that is passed to a tag function.
An implementation may define other, implementation specific fields.

8.3
Execution Contexts
An
execution context
is a specification device that is used to track the runtime evaluation of code by an ECMAScript implementation. At any point in time, there is at most one execution context that is actually executing code. This is known as the
running execution context
The
execution context stack
is used to track execution contexts. The running execution context is always the top element of this stack. A new execution context is created whenever control is transferred from the executable code associated with the currently running execution context to executable code that is not associated with that execution context. The newly created execution context is pushed onto the stack and becomes the running execution context.
An execution context contains whatever implementation specific state is necessary to track the execution progress of its associated code. Each execution context has at least the state components listed in
Table 22
Table 22: State Components for All Execution Contexts
Component
Purpose
code evaluation state
Any state needed to perform, suspend, and resume evaluation of the code associated with this execution context.
Function
If this execution context is evaluating the code of a function object, then the value of this component is that function object. If the context is evaluating the code of a
Script
or
Module
, the value is
null
Realm
The
Realm Record
from which associated code accesses ECMAScript resources.
ScriptOrModule
The
Module Record
or
Script Record
from which associated code originates. If there is no originating script or module, as is the case for the original execution context created in
InitializeHostDefinedRealm
, the value is
null
Evaluation of code by the running execution context may be suspended at various points defined within this specification. Once the running execution context has been suspended a different execution context may become the running execution context and commence evaluating its code. At some later time a suspended execution context may again become the running execution context and continue evaluating its code at the point where it had previously been suspended. Transition of the running execution context status among execution contexts usually occurs in stack-like last-in/first-out manner. However, some ECMAScript features require non-LIFO transitions of the running execution context.
The value of the
Realm
component of the running execution context is also called
the current Realm Record
. The value of the Function component of the running execution context is also called the
active function object
Execution contexts for ECMAScript code have the additional state components listed in
Table 23
Table 23: Additional State Components for ECMAScript Code Execution Contexts
Component
Purpose
LexicalEnvironment
Identifies the
Lexical Environment
used to resolve identifier references made by code within this execution context.
VariableEnvironment
Identifies the
Lexical Environment
whose
EnvironmentRecord
holds bindings created by
VariableStatement
s within this execution context.
The LexicalEnvironment and VariableEnvironment components of an execution context are always Lexical Environments. When an execution context is created its LexicalEnvironment and VariableEnvironment components initially have the same value.
Execution contexts representing the evaluation of generator objects have the additional state components listed in
Table 24
Table 24: Additional State Components for Generator Execution Contexts
Component
Purpose
Generator
The GeneratorObject that this execution context is evaluating.
In most situations only the running execution context (the top of the execution context stack) is directly manipulated by algorithms within this specification. Hence when the terms “LexicalEnvironment”, and “VariableEnvironment” are used without qualification they are in reference to those components of the running execution context.
An execution context is purely a specification mechanism and need not correspond to any particular artefact of an ECMAScript implementation. It is impossible for ECMAScript code to directly access or observe an execution context.
8.3.1
GetActiveScriptOrModule ()
The GetActiveScriptOrModule abstract operation is used to determine the running script or module, based on the
active function object
. GetActiveScriptOrModule performs the following steps:
If the
execution context stack
is empty, return
null
Let
ec
be the topmost
execution context
on the
execution context stack
whose Function component's [[ScriptOrModule]] component is not
null
If such an
execution context
exists, return
ec
's Function component's [[ScriptOrModule]] slot's value.
Otherwise, let
ec
be the
running execution context
Assert:
ec
's ScriptOrModule component is not
null
Return
ec
's ScriptOrModule component.
8.3.2
ResolveBinding (
name
[ ,
env
] )
The ResolveBinding abstract operation is used to determine the binding of
name
passed as a String value. The optional argument
env
can be used to explicitly provide the
Lexical Environment
that is to be searched for the binding. During execution of ECMAScript code, ResolveBinding is performed using the following algorithm:
If
env
was not passed or if
env
is
undefined
, then
Let
env
be the
running execution context
's LexicalEnvironment.
Assert:
env
is a
Lexical Environment
If the code matching the syntactic production that is being evaluated is contained in
strict mode code
, let
strict
be
true
, else let
strict
be
false
Return ?
GetIdentifierReference
env
name
strict
).
Note
The result of ResolveBinding is always a
Reference
value with its referenced name component equal to the
name
argument.
8.3.3
GetThisEnvironment ( )
The abstract operation GetThisEnvironment finds the
Environment Record
that currently supplies the binding of the keyword
this
. GetThisEnvironment performs the following steps:
Let
lex
be the
running execution context
's LexicalEnvironment.
Repeat
Let
envRec
be
lex
's
EnvironmentRecord
Let
exists
be
envRec
.HasThisBinding().
If
exists
is
true
, return
envRec
Let
outer
be the value of
lex
's outer environment reference.
Let
lex
be
outer
Note
The loop in step 2 will always terminate because the list of environments always ends with the
global environment
which has a
this
binding.
8.3.4
ResolveThisBinding ( )
The abstract operation ResolveThisBinding determines the binding of the keyword
this
using the LexicalEnvironment of the
running execution context
. ResolveThisBinding performs the following steps:
Let
envRec
be
GetThisEnvironment
( ).
Return ?
envRec
.GetThisBinding().
8.3.5
GetNewTarget ( )
The abstract operation GetNewTarget determines the NewTarget value using the LexicalEnvironment of the
running execution context
. GetNewTarget performs the following steps:
Let
envRec
be
GetThisEnvironment
( ).
Assert:
envRec
has a [[NewTarget]] field.
Return
envRec
.[[NewTarget]].
8.3.6
GetGlobalObject ( )
The abstract operation GetGlobalObject returns the
global object
used by the currently
running execution context
. GetGlobalObject performs the following steps:
Let
ctx
be the
running execution context
Let
currentRealm
be
ctx
's
Realm
Return
currentRealm
.[[GlobalObject]].
8.4
Jobs and Job Queues
A Job is an abstract operation that initiates an ECMAScript computation when no other ECMAScript computation is currently in progress. A Job abstract operation may be defined to accept an arbitrary set of job parameters.
Execution of a Job can be initiated only when there is no
running execution context
and the
execution context stack
is empty. A PendingJob is a request for the future execution of a Job. A PendingJob is an internal
Record
whose fields are specified in
Table 25
. Once execution of a Job is initiated, the Job always executes to completion. No other Job may be initiated until the currently running Job completes. However, the currently running Job or external events may cause the enqueuing of additional PendingJobs that may be initiated sometime after completion of the currently running Job.
Table 25: PendingJob
Record
Fields
Field Name
Value
Meaning
[[Job]]
The name of a Job abstract operation
This is the abstract operation that is performed when execution of this PendingJob is initiated. Jobs are abstract operations that use
NextJob
rather than Return to indicate that they have completed.
[[Arguments]]
List
The
List
of argument values that are to be passed to [[Job]] when it is activated.
[[Realm]]
Realm Record
The
Realm Record
for the initial
execution context
when this PendingJob is initiated.
[[ScriptOrModule]]
Script Record
or
Module Record
The script or module for the initial
execution context
when this PendingJob is initiated.
[[HostDefined]]
Any, default value is
undefined
Field reserved for use by host environments that need to associate additional information with a pending Job.
A Job Queue is a FIFO queue of PendingJob records. Each Job Queue has a name and the full set of available Job Queues are defined by an ECMAScript implementation. Every ECMAScript implementation has at least the Job Queues defined in
Table 26
Table 26: Required Job Queues
Name
Purpose
ScriptJobs
Jobs that validate and evaluate ECMAScript
Script
and
Module
source text. See clauses 10 and 15.
PromiseJobs
Jobs that are responses to the settlement of a Promise (see
25.4
).
A request for the future execution of a Job is made by enqueueing, on a Job Queue, a PendingJob record that includes a Job abstract operation name and any necessary argument values. When there is no
running execution context
and the
execution context stack
is empty, the ECMAScript implementation removes the first PendingJob from a Job Queue and uses the information contained in it to create an
execution context
and starts execution of the associated Job abstract operation.
The PendingJob records from a single Job Queue are always initiated in FIFO order. This specification does not define the order in which multiple Job Queues are serviced. An ECMAScript implementation may interweave the FIFO evaluation of the PendingJob records of a Job Queue with the evaluation of the PendingJob records of one or more other Job Queues. An implementation must define what occurs when there are no
running execution context
and all Job Queues are empty.
Note
Typically an ECMAScript implementation will have its Job Queues pre-initialized with at least one PendingJob and one of those Jobs will be the first to be executed. An implementation might choose to free all resources and terminate if the current Job completes and all Job Queues are empty. Alternatively, it might choose to wait for a some implementation specific agent or mechanism to enqueue new PendingJob requests.
The following abstract operations are used to create and manage Jobs and Job Queues:
8.4.1
EnqueueJob (
queueName

Ordinary and Exotic Objects Behaviours
9.1
Ordinary Object Internal Methods and Internal Slots
All ordinary objects have an internal slot called [[Prototype]]. The value of this internal slot is either
null
or an object and is used for implementing inheritance. Data properties of the [[Prototype]] object are inherited (are visible as properties of the child object) for the purposes of get access, but not for set access. Accessor properties are inherited for both get access and set access.
Every ordinary object has a Boolean-valued [[Extensible]] internal slot that controls whether or not properties may be added to the object. If the value of the [[Extensible]] internal slot is
false
then additional properties may not be added to the object. In addition, if [[Extensible]] is
false
the value of the [[Prototype]] internal slot of the object may not be modified. Once the value of an object's [[Extensible]] internal slot has been set to
false
it may not be subsequently changed to
true
In the following algorithm descriptions, assume
is an ordinary object,
is a property key value,
is any
ECMAScript language value
, and
Desc
is a
Property Descriptor
record.
Each ordinary object internal method delegates to a similarly-named abstract operation. If such an abstract operation depends on another internal method, then the internal method is invoked on
rather than calling the similarly-named abstract operation directly. These semantics ensure that exotic objects have their overridden internal methods invoked when ordinary object internal methods are applied to them.

ECMAScript Function Objects
ECMAScript function objects encapsulate parameterized ECMAScript code closed over a lexical environment and support the dynamic evaluation of that code. An ECMAScript function object is an ordinary object and has the same internal slots and the same internal methods as other ordinary objects. The code of an ECMAScript function object may be either
strict mode code

) or non-
strict mode code
. An ECMAScript function object whose code is
strict mode code
is called a
strict function
. One whose code is not
strict mode code
is called a
non-strict function
ECMAScript function objects have the additional internal slots listed in
Table 27

The script or module in which the function was created.
[[ThisMode]]
(lexical, strict, global)
Defines how
this
references are interpreted within the formal parameters and code body of the function.
lexical
means that
this

this
value of a lexically enclosing function.
strict
means that the
this

FunctionDeclarationInstantiation (
func
argumentsList
Note 1
When an
execution context
is established for evaluating an ECMAScript function a new function
Environment Record
is created and bindings for each formal parameter are instantiated in that
Environment Record
. Each declaration in the function body is also instantiated. If the function's formal parameters do not include any default value initializers then the body declarations are instantiated in the same
Environment Record
as the parameters. If default value parameter initializers exist, a second
Environment Record
is created for the body declarations. Formal parameters and functions are initialized as part of FunctionDeclarationInstantiation. All other bindings are initialized during evaluation of the function body.
FunctionDeclarationInstantiation is performed as follows using arguments

Built-in Function Objects
The built-in function objects defined in this specification may be implemented as either ECMAScript function objects (
9.2
) whose behaviour is provided using ECMAScript code or as implementation provided exotic function objects whose behaviour is provided in some other manner. In either case, the effect of calling such functions must conform to their specifications. An implementation may also provide additional built-in function objects that are not defined in this specification.
If a built-in function object is implemented as an exotic object it must have the ordinary object behaviour specified in
9.1
. All such exotic function objects also have [[Prototype]], [[Extensible]], [[Realm]], and [[ScriptOrModule]] internal slots.
Unless otherwise specified every built-in function object has the
%FunctionPrototype%
object as the initial value of its [[Prototype]] internal slot.
The behaviour specified for each built-in function via algorithm steps or other means is the specification of the function body behaviour for both [[Call]] and [[Construct]] invocations of the function. However, [[Construct]] invocation is not supported by all built-in functions. For each built-in function, when invoked with [[Call]], the [[Call]]
thisArgument
provides the
this
value, the [[Call]]
argumentsList
provides the named parameters, and the NewTarget value is
undefined
. When invoked with [[Construct]], the
this
value is uninitialized, the [[Construct]]
argumentsList
provides the named parameters, and the [[Construct]]
newTarget
parameter provides the NewTarget value. If the built-in function is implemented as an ECMAScript function object then this specified behaviour must be implemented by the ECMAScript code that is the body of the function. Built-in functions that are ECMAScript function objects must be strict mode functions. If a built-in constructor has any [[Call]] behaviour other than throwing a
TypeError
exception, an ECMAScript implementation of the function must be done in a manner that does not cause the function's [[FunctionKind]] internal slot to have the value
"classConstructor"
Built-in function objects that are not identified as constructors do not implement the [[Construct]] internal method unless otherwise specified in the description of a particular function. When a built-in constructor is called as part of a
new
expression the
argumentsList
parameter of the invoked [[Construct]] internal method provides the values for the built-in constructor's named parameters.
Built-in functions that are not constructors do not have a
prototype
property unless otherwise specified in the description of a particular function.
If a built-in function object is not implemented as an ECMAScript function it must provide [[Call]] and [[Construct]] internal methods that conform to the following definitions:
9.3.1
[[Call]] (
thisArgument
argumentsList
The [[Call]] internal method for a built-in function object
is called with parameters
thisArgument
and
argumentsList
, a
List
of ECMAScript language values. The following steps are taken:
Let
callerContext
be the
running execution context
If
callerContext
is not already suspended, suspend
callerContext
Let
calleeContext
be a new ECMAScript code
execution context
Set the Function of
calleeContext
to
Let
calleeRealm
be the value of
's [[Realm]] internal slot.
Set the
Realm
of
calleeContext
to
calleeRealm
Set the ScriptOrModule of
calleeContext
to the value of
's [[ScriptOrModule]] internal slot.
Perform any necessary implementation defined initialization of
calleeContext
Push
calleeContext
onto the
execution context stack
calleeContext
is now the
running execution context
Let
result
be the
Completion Record
that is the result of evaluating
in an implementation defined manner that conforms to the specification of
thisArgument
is the
this
value,
argumentsList
provides the named parameters, and the NewTarget value is
undefined
Remove
calleeContext
from the
execution context stack
and restore
callerContext
as the
running execution context
Return
result
Note
When
calleeContext
is removed from the
execution context stack
it must not be destroyed if it has been suspended and retained by an accessible generator object for later resumption.
9.3.2
[[Construct]] (
argumentsList
newTarget
The [[Construct]] internal method for built-in function object
is called with parameters
argumentsList
and
newTarget
. The steps performed are the same as [[Call]] (see
9.3.1
) except that step 10 is replaced by:
Let
result
be the
Completion Record
that is the result of evaluating
in an implementation defined manner that conforms to the specification of
. The
this
value is uninitialized,
argumentsList
provides the named parameters, and
newTarget
provides the NewTarget value.
9.3.3
CreateBuiltinFunction (
realm
steps
prototype
[ ,
internalSlotsList
])
The abstract operation CreateBuiltinFunction takes arguments
realm
prototype
, and
steps
. The optional argument
internalSlotsList
is a
List
of the names of additional internal slots that must be defined as part of the object. If the list is not provided, a new empty
List
is used. CreateBuiltinFunction returns a built-in function object created by the following steps:
Assert:
realm
is a
Realm Record
Assert:
steps
is either a set of algorithm steps or other definition of a function's behaviour provided in this specification.
Let
func
be a new built-in function object that when called performs the action described by
steps
. The new function object has internal slots whose names are the elements of
internalSlotsList
. The initial value of each of those internal slots is
undefined
Set the [[Realm]] internal slot of
func
to
realm
Set the [[Prototype]] internal slot of
func
to
prototype
Set the [[Extensible]] internal slot of
func
to
true
Set the [[ScriptOrModule]] internal slot of
func
to
null
Return
func
Each built-in function defined in this specification is created as if by calling the CreateBuiltinFunction abstract operation, unless otherwise specified.
9.4
Built-in Exotic Object Internal Methods and Slots
This specification defines several kinds of built-in exotic objects. These objects generally behave similar to ordinary objects except for a few specific situations. The following exotic objects use the ordinary object internal methods except where it is explicitly specified otherwise below:
9.4.1
Bound Function Exotic Objects
bound function
is an exotic object that wraps another function object. A bound function is callable (it has a [[Call]] internal method and may have a [[Construct]] internal method). Calling a bound function generally results in a call of its wrapped function.
Bound function objects do not have the internal slots of ECMAScript function objects defined in
Table 27
. Instead they have the internal slots defined in
Table 28
Table 28: Internal Slots of Exotic Bound Function Objects
Internal Slot
Type
Description
[[BoundTargetFunction]]
Callable Object
The wrapped function object.
[[BoundThis]]
Any
The value that is always passed as the
this
value when calling the wrapped function.
[[BoundArguments]]
List
of Any
A list of values whose elements are used as the first arguments to any call to the wrapped function.
Bound function objects provide all of the essential internal methods as specified in
9.1
. However, they use the following definitions for the essential internal methods of function objects.
9.4.1.1
[[Call]] (
thisArgument
argumentsList
When the [[Call]] internal method of an exotic
bound function
object,
, which was created using the bind function is called with parameters
thisArgument
and
argumentsList
, a

Let
target
be the value of
's [[BoundTargetFunction]] internal slot.
Let
boundThis
be the value of
's [[BoundThis]] internal slot.
Let
boundArgs
be the value of
's [[BoundArguments]] internal slot.
Let
args
be a new list containing the same values as the list
boundArgs
in the same order followed by the same values as the list
argumentsList
in the same order.
Return ?
Call

9.4.1.2
[[Construct]] (
argumentsList
newTarget
When the [[Construct]] internal method of an exotic
bound function
object,
that was created using the bind function is called with a list of arguments
argumentsList
and
newTarget
, the following steps are taken:
Let
target
be the value of
's [[BoundTargetFunction]] internal slot.
Assert:
target
has a [[Construct]] internal method.
Let
boundArgs
be the value of
's [[BoundArguments]] internal slot.

9.4.2
Array Exotic Objects
An
Array object
is an exotic object that gives special treatment to array index property keys (see
6.1.7
). A property whose property name is an array index is also called an
element
. Every Array object has a
length
property whose value is always a nonnegative integer less than 2
32
. The value of the
length
property is numerically greater than the name of every own property whose name is an array index; whenever an own property of an Array object is created or changed, other properties are adjusted as necessary to maintain this invariant. Specifically, whenever an own property is added whose name is an array index, the value of the
length
property is changed, if necessary, to be one more than the numeric value of that array index; and whenever the value of the
length
property is changed, every own property whose name is an array index whose value is not smaller than the new length is deleted. This constraint applies only to own properties of an Array object and is unaffected by
length
or array index properties that may be inherited from its prototypes.
Note
A String property name
is an
array index

ToString

ToUint32

-1
Array exotic objects always have a non-configurable property named
"length"

9.1

String Exotic Objects
String object
is an exotic object that encapsulates a String value and exposes virtual integer indexed data properties corresponding to the individual code unit elements of the String value. Exotic String objects always have a data property named
"length"
whose value is the number of code unit elements in the encapsulated String value. Both the code unit data properties and the
"length"
property are non-writable and non-configurable.
Exotic String objects have the same internal slots as ordinary objects. They also have a [[StringData]] internal slot.
Exotic String objects provide alternative definitions for the following internal methods. All of the other exotic String object essential internal methods that are not defined below are as specified in

Arguments Exotic Objects
Most ECMAScript functions make an arguments object available to their code. Depending upon the characteristics of the function definition, its arguments object is either an ordinary object or an
arguments exotic object
. An arguments exotic object is an exotic object whose array index properties map to the formal parameters bindings of an invocation of its associated ECMAScript function.
Arguments exotic objects have the same internal slots as ordinary objects. They also have a [[ParameterMap]] internal slot. Ordinary arguments objects also have a [[ParameterMap]] internal slot whose value is always undefined. For ordinary argument objects the [[ParameterMap]] internal slot is only used by
Object.prototype.toString
19.1.3.6
) to identify them as such.
Arguments exotic objects provide alternative definitions for the following internal methods. All of the other exotic arguments object essential internal methods that are not defined below are as specified in
9.1
Note 1
For non-strict functions the integer indexed data properties of an arguments object whose numeric name values are less than the number of formal parameters of the corresponding function object initially share their values with the corresponding argument bindings in the function's
execution context
. This means that changing the property changes the corresponding value of the argument binding and vice-versa. This correspondence is broken if such a property is deleted and then redefined or if the property is changed into an accessor property. For strict mode functions, the values of the arguments object's properties are simply a copy of the arguments passed to the function and there is no dynamic linkage between the property values and the formal parameter values.
Note 2
The ParameterMap object and its property values are used as a device for specifying the arguments object correspondence to argument bindings. The ParameterMap object and the objects that are the values of its properties are not directly observable from ECMAScript code. An ECMAScript implementation does not need to actually create or use such objects to implement the specified semantics.
Note 3
Arguments objects for strict mode functions define non-configurable accessor properties named
"caller"
and
"callee"
which throw a
TypeError
exception on access. The
"callee"
property has a more specific meaning for non-strict functions and a
"caller"
property has historically been provided as an implementation-defined extension by some ECMAScript implementations. The strict mode definition of these properties exists to ensure that neither of them is defined in any other manner by conforming ECMAScript implementations.

Module Namespace Exotic Objects
module namespace object
is an exotic object that exposes the bindings exported from an ECMAScript
Module
(See
15.2.3
). There is a one-to-one correspondence between the String-keyed own properties of a module namespace exotic object and the binding names exported by the
Module
. The exported bindings include any bindings that are indirectly exported using
export *
export items. Each String-valued own property key is the StringValue of the corresponding exported binding name. These are the only String-keyed properties of a module namespace exotic object. Each such property has the attributes { [[Writable]]:
true
, [[Enumerable]]:
true
, [[Configurable]]:
false
}. Module namespace objects are not extensible.
Module namespace objects have the internal slots defined in
Table 29

Proxy Object Internal Methods and Internal Slots
A proxy object is an exotic object whose essential internal methods are partially implemented using ECMAScript code. Every proxy objects has an internal slot called [[ProxyHandler]]. The value of [[ProxyHandler]] is an object, called the proxy's
handler object
, or
null
. Methods (see
Table 30
) of a handler object may be used to augment the implementation for one or more of the proxy object's internal methods. Every proxy object also has an internal slot called [[ProxyTarget]] whose value is either an object or the
null
value. This object is called the proxy's
target object

When a handler method is called to provide the implementation of a proxy object internal method, the handler method is passed the proxy's target object as a parameter. A proxy's handler object does not necessarily have a method corresponding to every essential internal method. Invoking an internal method on the proxy results in the invocation of the corresponding internal method on the proxy's target object if the handler object does not have a method corresponding to the internal trap.
The [[ProxyHandler]] and [[ProxyTarget]] internal slots of a proxy object are always initialized when the object is created and typically may not be modified. Some proxy objects are created in a manner that permits them to be subsequently
revoked
. When a proxy is revoked, its [[ProxyHandler]] and [[ProxyTarget]] internal slots are set to
null
causing subsequent invocations of internal methods on that proxy object to throw a
TypeError
exception.
Because proxy objects permit the implementation of internal methods to be provided by arbitrary ECMAScript code, it is possible to define a proxy object whose handler methods violates the invariants defined in
6.1.7.3
. Some of the internal method invariants defined in
6.1.7.3
are essential integrity invariants. These invariants are explicitly enforced by the proxy object internal methods specified in this section. An ECMAScript implementation must be robust in the presence of all possible invariant violations.
In the following algorithm descriptions, assume

ECMAScript language value

ECMAScript Language: Source Code
10.1
Source Text
Syntax
SourceCharacter
::
any Unicode code point
ECMAScript code is expressed using Unicode, version 8.0.0 or later. ECMAScript source text is a sequence of code points. All Unicode code point values from U+0000 to U+10FFFF, including surrogate code points, may occur in source text where permitted by the ECMAScript grammars. The actual encodings used to store and interchange ECMAScript source text is not relevant to this specification. Regardless of the external source text encoding, a conforming ECMAScript implementation processes the source text as if it was an equivalent sequence of
SourceCharacter
values, each
SourceCharacter
being a Unicode code point. Conforming ECMAScript implementations are not required to perform any normalization of source text, or behave as though they were performing normalization of source text.
The components of a combining character sequence are treated as individual Unicode code points even though a user might think of the whole sequence as a single character.
Note
In string literals, regular expression literals, template literals and identifiers, any Unicode code point may also be expressed using Unicode escape sequences that explicitly express a code point's numeric value. Within a comment, such an escape sequence is effectively ignored as part of the comment.
ECMAScript differs from the Java programming language in the behaviour of Unicode escape sequences. In a Java program, if the Unicode escape sequence
\u000A
, for example, occurs within a single-line comment, it is interpreted as a line terminator (Unicode code point U+000A is LINE FEED (LF)) and therefore the next code point is not part of the comment. Similarly, if the Unicode escape sequence
\u000A
occurs within a string literal in a Java program, it is likewise interpreted as a line terminator, which is not allowed within a string literal—one must write
\n
instead of
\u000A
to cause a LINE FEED (LF) to be part of the String value of a string literal. In an ECMAScript program, a Unicode escape sequence occurring within a comment is never interpreted and therefore cannot contribute to termination of the comment. Similarly, a Unicode escape sequence occurring within a string literal in an ECMAScript program always contributes to the literal and is never interpreted as a line terminator or as a code point that might terminate the string literal.

10.2
Types of Source Code
There are four types of ECMAScript code:
Global code
is source text that is treated as an ECMAScript
Script
. The global code of a particular
Script
does not include any source text that is parsed as part of a
FunctionDeclaration
FunctionExpression
GeneratorDeclaration
GeneratorExpression
MethodDefinition
ArrowFunction
ClassDeclaration
, or
ClassExpression
Eval code
is the source text supplied to the built-in
eval
function. More precisely, if the parameter to the built-in
eval
function is a String, it is treated as an ECMAScript
Script
. The eval code for a particular invocation of
eval
is the global code portion of that
Script
Function code
is source text that is parsed to supply the value of the [[ECMAScriptCode]] and [[FormalParameters]] internal slots (see
9.2
) of an ECMAScript function object. The function code of a particular ECMAScript function does not include any source text that is parsed as the function code of a nested
FunctionDeclaration
FunctionExpression
GeneratorDeclaration
GeneratorExpression
MethodDefinition
ArrowFunction
ClassDeclaration
, or
ClassExpression
Module code
is source text that is code that is provided as a
ModuleBody
. It is the code that is directly evaluated when a module is initialized. The module code of a particular module does not include any source text that is parsed as part of a nested
FunctionDeclaration
FunctionExpression
GeneratorDeclaration
GeneratorExpression
MethodDefinition
ArrowFunction
ClassDeclaration
, or
ClassExpression
Note
Function code is generally provided as the bodies of Function Definitions (
14.1
), Arrow Function Definitions (
14.2
), Method Definitions (
14.3
) and Generator Definitions (
14.4
). Function code is also derived from the arguments to the
Function
constructor (
19.2.1.1
) and the GeneratorFunction constructor (
25.2.1.1
).
10.2.1
Strict Mode Code
An ECMAScript
Script
syntactic unit may be processed using either unrestricted or strict mode syntax and semantics. Code is interpreted as
strict mode code
in the following situations:
Global code is strict mode code if it begins with a
Directive Prologue
that contains a
Use Strict Directive
Module code is always strict mode code.
All parts of a
ClassDeclaration
or a
ClassExpression
are strict mode code.
Eval code is strict mode code if it begins with a
Directive Prologue
that contains a
Use Strict Directive
or if the call to
eval
is a
direct eval
that is contained in strict mode code.
Function code is strict mode code if the associated
FunctionDeclaration
FunctionExpression
GeneratorDeclaration
GeneratorExpression
MethodDefinition
, or
ArrowFunction
is contained in strict mode code or if the code that produces the value of the function's [[ECMAScriptCode]] internal slot begins with a
Directive Prologue
that contains a
Use Strict Directive
Function code that is supplied as the arguments to the built-in
Function
and
Generator
constructors is strict mode code if the last argument is a String that when processed is a
FunctionBody
that begins with a
Directive Prologue
that contains a
Use Strict Directive
ECMAScript code that is not strict mode code is called
non-strict code
10.2.2
Non-ECMAScript Functions
An ECMAScript implementation may support the evaluation of exotic function objects whose evaluative behaviour is expressed in some implementation defined form of executable code other than via ECMAScript code. Whether a function object is an ECMAScript code function or a non-ECMAScript function is not semantically observable from the perspective of an ECMAScript code function that calls or is called by such a non-ECMAScript function.
11
ECMAScript Language: Lexical Grammar
The source text of an ECMAScript
Script
or
Module
is first converted into a sequence of input elements, which are tokens, line terminators, comments, or white space. The source text is scanned from left to right, repeatedly taking the longest possible sequence of code points as the next input element.
There are several situations where the identification of lexical input elements is sensitive to the syntactic grammar context that is consuming the input elements. This requires multiple goal symbols for the lexical grammar. The
InputElementRegExpOrTemplateTail
goal is used in syntactic grammar contexts where a
RegularExpressionLiteral
, a
TemplateMiddle
, or a
TemplateTail
is permitted. The
InputElementRegExp
goal symbol is used in all syntactic grammar contexts where a
RegularExpressionLiteral
is permitted but neither a
TemplateMiddle
, nor a
TemplateTail
is permitted. The
InputElementTemplateTail
goal is used in all syntactic grammar contexts where a
TemplateMiddle
or a
TemplateTail
is permitted but a
RegularExpressionLiteral
is not permitted. In all other contexts,
InputElementDiv
is used as the lexical goal symbol.
Note
The use of multiple lexical goals ensures that there are no lexical ambiguities that would affect automatic semicolon insertion. For example, there are no syntactic grammar contexts where both a leading division or division-assignment, and a leading
RegularExpressionLiteral
are permitted. This is not affected by semicolon insertion (see
11.9
); in examples such as the following:
a = b
/hi/g.exec(c).map(d);
where the first non-whitespace, non-comment code point after a
LineTerminator
is U+002F (SOLIDUS) and the syntactic context allows division or division-assignment, no semicolon is inserted at the
LineTerminator
. That is, the above example is interpreted in the same way as:
a = b / hi / g.exec(c).map(d);

Unicode Format-Control Characters
The Unicode format-control characters (i.e., the characters in category “Cf” in the Unicode Character Database such as LEFT-TO-RIGHT MARK or RIGHT-TO-LEFT MARK) are control codes used to control the formatting of a range of text in the absence of higher-level protocols for this (such as mark-up languages).
It is useful to allow format-control characters in source text to facilitate editing and display. All format control characters may be used within comments, and within string literals, template literals, and regular expression literals.
U+200C (ZERO WIDTH NON-JOINER) and U+200D (ZERO WIDTH JOINER) are format-control characters that are used to make necessary distinctions when forming words or phrases in certain languages. In ECMAScript source text these code points may also be used in an
IdentifierName
after the first character.
U+FEFF (ZERO WIDTH NO-BREAK SPACE) is a format-control character used primarily at the start of a text to mark it as Unicode and to allow detection of the text's encoding and byte order. characters intended for this purpose can sometimes also appear after the start of a text, for example as a result of concatenating files. In ECMAScript source text code points are treated as white space characters (see
11.2
).
The special treatment of certain format-control characters outside of comments, string literals, and regular expression literals is summarized in

White Space
White space code points are used to improve source text readability and to separate tokens (indivisible lexical units) from each other, but are otherwise insignificant. White space code points may occur between any two tokens and at the start or end of input. White space code points may occur within a
StringLiteral
, a
RegularExpressionLiteral
, a
Template
, or a
TemplateSubstitutionTail
where they are considered significant code points forming part of a literal value. They may also occur within a
Comment
, but cannot appear within any other kind of token.

11.3
Line Terminators
Like white space code points, line terminator code points are used to improve source text readability and to separate tokens (indivisible lexical units) from each other. However, unlike white space code points, line terminators have some influence over the behaviour of the syntactic grammar. In general, line terminators may occur between any two tokens, but there are a few places where they are forbidden by the syntactic grammar. Line terminators also affect the process of automatic semicolon insertion (
11.9
). A line terminator cannot occur within any token except a
StringLiteral
Template
, or
TemplateSubstitutionTail
. Line terminators may only occur within a
StringLiteral
token as part of a
LineContinuation
A line terminator can occur within a
MultiLineComment
but cannot occur within a
SingleLineComment
Line terminators are included in the set of white space code points that are matched by the
\s
class in regular expressions.
The ECMAScript line terminator code points are listed in

Table 32
. The sequence is commonly used as a line terminator. It should be considered a single
SourceCharacter
for the purpose of reporting line numbers.

11.4
Comments
Comments can be either single or multi-line. Multi-line comments cannot nest.
Because a single-line comment can contain any Unicode code point except a
LineTerminator
code point, and because of the general rule that a token is always as long as possible, a single-line comment always consists of all code points from the
//
marker to the end of the line. However, the
LineTerminator
at the end of the line is not considered to be part of the single-line comment; it is recognized separately by the lexical grammar and becomes part of the stream of input elements for the syntactic grammar. This point is very important, because it implies that the presence or absence of single-line comments does not affect the process of automatic semicolon insertion (see
11.9
).
Comments behave like white space and are discarded except that, if a
MultiLineComment
contains a line terminator code point, then the entire comment is considered to be a
LineTerminator
for purposes of parsing by the syntactic grammar.

Names and Keywords
IdentifierName
and
ReservedWord
are tokens that are interpreted according to the Default Identifier Syntax given in Unicode Standard Annex #31, Identifier and Pattern Syntax, with some small modifications.
ReservedWord
is an enumerated subset of
IdentifierName
. The syntactic grammar defines
Identifier
as an
IdentifierName
that is not a
ReservedWord
. The Unicode identifier grammar is based on character properties specified by the Unicode Standard. The Unicode code points in the specified categories in version 8.0.0 of the Unicode standard must be treated as in those categories by all conforming ECMAScript implementations. ECMAScript implementations may recognize identifier code points defined in later editions of the Unicode Standard.
Note 1
This standard specifies specific code point additions: U+0024 (DOLLAR SIGN) and U+005F (LOW LINE) are permitted anywhere in an
IdentifierName
, and the code points U+200C (ZERO WIDTH NON-JOINER) and U+200D (ZERO WIDTH JOINER) are permitted anywhere after the first code point of an
IdentifierName
Unicode escape sequences are permitted in an
IdentifierName
, where they contribute a single Unicode code point to the
IdentifierName
. The code point is expressed by the
HexDigits
of the
UnicodeEscapeSequence
(see
11.8.4
). The
preceding the
UnicodeEscapeSequence
and the
and
{ }
code units, if they appear, do not contribute code points to the
IdentifierName
. A
UnicodeEscapeSequence
cannot be used to put a code point into an
IdentifierName
that would otherwise be illegal. In other words, if a
UnicodeEscapeSequence
sequence were replaced by the
SourceCharacter
it contributes, the result must still be a valid
IdentifierName
that has the exact same sequence of
SourceCharacter
elements as the original
IdentifierName
. All interpretations of
IdentifierName
within this specification are based upon their actual code points regardless of whether or not an escape sequence was used to contribute any particular code point.
Two
IdentifierName
that are canonically equivalent according to the Unicode standard are
not
equal unless, after replacement of each
UnicodeEscapeSequence
, they are represented by the exact same sequence of code points.

Once the exact MV for a numeric literal has been determined, it is then rounded to a value of the Number type. If the MV is 0, then the rounded value is
+0
; otherwise, the rounded value must be the Number value for the MV (as specified in
6.1.6
), unless the literal is a
DecimalLiteral
and the literal has more than 20 significant digits, in which case the Number value may be either the Number value for the MV of a literal produced by replacing each significant digit after the 20th with a
digit or the Number value for the MV of a literal produced by replacing each significant digit after the 20th with a
digit and then incrementing the literal at the 20th significant digit position. A digit is
significant
if it is not part of an
ExponentPart
and
it is not
; or
there is a nonzero digit to its left and there is a nonzero digit, not in the
ExponentPart
, to its right.
11.8.4
String Literals
Note 1
A string literal is zero or more Unicode code points enclosed in single or double quotes. Unicode code points may also be represented by an escape sequence. All code points may appear literally in a string literal except for the closing quote code points, U+005C (REVERSE SOLIDUS), U+000D (CARRIAGE RETURN), U+2028 (LINE SEPARATOR), U+2029 (PARAGRAPH SEPARATOR), and U+000A (LINE FEED). Any code points may appear in the form of an escape sequence. String literals evaluate to ECMAScript String values. When generating these String values Unicode code points are UTF-16 encoded as defined in
10.1.1
. Code points belonging to the Basic Multilingual Plane are encoded as a single code unit element of the string. All other code points are encoded as two code unit elements of the string.

Regular Expression Literals
Note 1
A regular expression literal is an input element that is converted to a RegExp object (see
21.2
) each time the literal is evaluated. Two regular expression literals in a program evaluate to regular expression objects that never compare as
===
to each other even if the two literals' contents are identical. A RegExp object may also be created at runtime by
new RegExp
or calling the
RegExp
constructor as a function (see
21.2.3
).
The productions below describe the syntax for a regular expression literal and are used by the input element scanner to find the end of the regular expression literal. The source text comprising the
RegularExpressionBody
and the
RegularExpressionFlags
are subsequently parsed again using the more stringent ECMAScript Regular Expression grammar (
21.2.1
).
An implementation may extend the ECMAScript Regular Expression grammar defined in
21.2.1
, but it must not extend the
RegularExpressionBody
and
RegularExpressionFlags
productions defined below or the productions used by these productions.

Static Semantics: TV and TRV
A template literal component is interpreted as a sequence of Unicode code points. The Template Value (TV) of a literal component is described in terms of code unit values (SV,
11.8.4
) contributed by the various parts of the template literal component. As part of this process, some Unicode code points within the template component are interpreted as having a mathematical value (MV,
11.8.3
). In determining a TV, escape sequences are replaced by the UTF-16 code unit(s) of the Unicode code point represented by the escape sequence. The Template Raw Value (TRV) is similar to a Template Value with the difference that in TRVs escape sequences are interpreted literally.

Automatic Semicolon Insertion
Most ECMAScript statements and declarations must be terminated with a semicolon. Such semicolons may always appear explicitly in the source text. For convenience, however, such semicolons may be omitted from the source text in certain situations. These situations are described by saying that semicolons are automatically inserted into the source code token stream in those situations.
11.9.1
Rules of Automatic Semicolon Insertion
In the following rules, “token” means the actual recognized lexical token determined using the current lexical goal symbol as described in clause
11
There are three basic rules of semicolon insertion:
When, as a
Script
or
Module
is parsed from left to right, a token (called the
offending token
) is encountered that is not allowed by any production of the grammar, then a semicolon is automatically inserted before the offending token if one or more of the following conditions is true:
The offending token is separated from the previous token by at least one
LineTerminator
The offending token is
The previous token is
and the inserted semicolon would then be parsed as the terminating semicolon of a do-while statement (
13.7.2
).
When, as the
Script
or
Module
is parsed from left to right, the end of the input stream of tokens is encountered and the parser is unable to parse the input token stream as a single complete ECMAScript
Script
or
Module
, then a semicolon is automatically inserted at the end of the input stream.
When, as the
Script
or
Module
is parsed from left to right, a token is encountered that is allowed by some production of the grammar, but the production is a
restricted production
and the token would be the first token for a terminal or nonterminal immediately following the annotation “[no
LineTerminator
here]” within the restricted production (and therefore such a token is called a restricted token), and the restricted token is separated from the previous token by at least one
LineTerminator
, then a semicolon is automatically inserted before the restricted token.
However, there is an additional overriding condition on the preceding rules: a semicolon is never inserted automatically if the semicolon would then be parsed as an empty statement or if that semicolon would become one of the two semicolons in the header of a
for
statement (see
13.7.4
).
Note
The following are the only restricted productions in the grammar:
UpdateExpression
[Yield]
LeftHandSideExpression
[?Yield]
[no
LineTerminator
here]
++
LeftHandSideExpression
[?Yield]
[no

yield
[no
LineTerminator
here]
AssignmentExpression
[?In, Yield]
yield
[no
LineTerminator
here]
AssignmentExpression
[?In, Yield]
The practical effect of these restricted productions is as follows:
When a
++
or
--
token is encountered where the parser would treat it as a postfix operator, and at least one
LineTerminator
occurred between the preceding token and the
++
or
--
token, then a semicolon is automatically inserted before the
++
or
--
token.
When a
continue
break
return
throw
, or
yield
token is encountered and a
LineTerminator
is encountered before the next token, a semicolon is automatically inserted after the
continue
break
return
throw
, or
yield
token.
The resulting practical advice to ECMAScript programmers is:
A postfix
++
or
--
operator should appear on the same line as its operand.
An
Expression
in a
return
or
throw
statement or an
AssignmentExpression
in a
yield
expression should start on the same line as the
return
throw
, or
yield
token.
LabelIdentifier
in a
break
or
continue
statement should be on the same line as the
break
or
continue
token.
11.9.2
Examples of Automatic Semicolon Insertion
The source
is not a valid sentence in the ECMAScript grammar, even with the automatic semicolon insertion rules. In contrast, the source
is also not a valid ECMAScript sentence, but is transformed by automatic semicolon insertion into the following:
;}
which is a valid ECMAScript sentence.
The source
for
(a; b
is not a valid ECMAScript sentence and is not altered by automatic semicolon insertion because the semicolon is needed for the header of a
for
statement. Automatic semicolon insertion never inserts one of the two semicolons in the header of a
for
statement.
The source
return
a + b
is transformed by automatic semicolon insertion into the following:
return
a + b;
Note 1
The expression
a + b
is not treated as a value to be returned by the
return
statement, because a
LineTerminator
separates it from the token
return
The source
a = b
++c
is transformed by automatic semicolon insertion into the following:
a = b;
++c;
Note 2
The token
++
is not treated as a postfix operator applying to the variable
, because a
LineTerminator
occurs between
and
++
The source
if
(a > b)
else
c = d
is not a valid ECMAScript sentence and is not altered by automatic semicolon insertion before the
else
token, even though no production of the grammar applies at that point, because an automatically inserted semicolon would then be parsed as an empty statement.
The source
a = b + c
(d + e).print()
is
not
transformed by automatic semicolon insertion, because the parenthesized expression that begins the second line can be interpreted as an argument list for a function call:
a = b + c(d + e).print()
In the circumstance that an assignment statement must begin with a left parenthesis, it is a good idea for the programmer to provide an explicit semicolon at the end of the preceding statement rather than to rely on automatic semicolon insertion.

Array Initializer
Note
An
ArrayLiteral
is an expression describing the initialization of an Array object, using a list, of zero or more expressions each of which represents an array element, enclosed in square brackets. The elements need not be literals; they are evaluated each time the array initializer is evaluated.
Array elements may be elided at the beginning, middle or end of the element list. Whenever a comma in the element list is not preceded by an
AssignmentExpression
(i.e., a comma at the beginning or after another comma), the missing array element contributes to the length of the Array and increases the index of subsequent elements. Elided array elements are not defined. If an element is elided at the end of an array, that element does not contribute to the length of the Array.

Object Initializer

An object initializer is an expression describing the initialization of an Object, written in a form resembling a literal. It is a list of zero or more pairs of property keys and associated values, enclosed in curly brackets. The values need not be literals; they are evaluated each time the object initializer is evaluated.

The creation of a template object cannot result in an
abrupt completion
Note 2
Each
TemplateLiteral
in the program code of a
realm
is associated with a unique template object that is used in the evaluation of tagged Templates (
12.2.9.5
). The template objects are frozen and the same template object is used each time a specific tagged Template is evaluated. Whether template objects are created lazily upon first evaluation of the
TemplateLiteral
or eagerly prior to first evaluation is an implementation choice that is not observable to ECMAScript code.

Future editions of this specification may define additional non-enumerable properties of template objects.

12.7.3.1
Applying the
Operator
The
MultiplicativeOperator
performs multiplication, producing the product of its operands. Multiplication is commutative. Multiplication is not always associative in ECMAScript, because of finite precision.
The result of a floating-point multiplication is governed by the rules of IEEE 754-2008 binary double-precision arithmetic:
If either operand is
NaN
, the result is
NaN
The sign of the result is positive if both operands have the same sign, negative if the operands have different signs.
Multiplication of an infinity by a zero results in
NaN
Multiplication of an infinity by an infinity results in an infinity. The sign is determined by the rule already stated above.
Multiplication of an infinity by a finite nonzero value results in a signed infinity. The sign is determined by the rule already stated above.
In the remaining cases, where neither an infinity nor
NaN
is involved, the product is computed and rounded to the nearest representable value using IEEE 754-2008 round to nearest, ties to even mode. If the magnitude is too large to represent, the result is then an infinity of appropriate sign. If the magnitude is too small to represent, the result is then a zero of appropriate sign. The ECMAScript language requires support of gradual underflow as defined by IEEE 754-2008.
12.7.3.2
Applying the
Operator
The
MultiplicativeOperator
performs division, producing the quotient of its operands. The left operand is the dividend and the right operand is the divisor. ECMAScript does not perform integer division. The operands and result of all division operations are double-precision floating-point numbers. The result of division is determined by the specification of IEEE 754-2008 arithmetic:
If either operand is
NaN
, the result is
NaN
The sign of the result is positive if both operands have the same sign, negative if the operands have different signs.
Division of an infinity by an infinity results in
NaN
Division of an infinity by a zero results in an infinity. The sign is determined by the rule already stated above.
Division of an infinity by a nonzero finite value results in a signed infinity. The sign is determined by the rule already stated above.
Division of a finite value by an infinity results in zero. The sign is determined by the rule already stated above.
Division of a zero by a zero results in
NaN
; division of zero by any other finite value results in zero, with the sign determined by the rule already stated above.
Division of a nonzero finite value by a zero results in a signed infinity. The sign is determined by the rule already stated above.
In the remaining cases, where neither an infinity, nor a zero, nor
NaN
is involved, the quotient is computed and rounded to the nearest representable value using IEEE 754-2008 round to nearest, ties to even mode. If the magnitude is too large to represent, the operation overflows; the result is then an infinity of appropriate sign. If the magnitude is too small to represent, the operation underflows and the result is a zero of the appropriate sign. The ECMAScript language requires support of gradual underflow as defined by IEEE 754-2008.
12.7.3.3
Applying the
Operator
The
MultiplicativeOperator
yields the remainder of its operands from an implied division; the left operand is the dividend and the right operand is the divisor.
Note
In C and C++, the remainder operator accepts only integral operands; in ECMAScript, it also accepts floating-point operands.
The result of a floating-point remainder operation as computed by the
operator is not the same as the “remainder” operation defined by IEEE 754-2008. The IEEE 754-2008 “remainder” operation computes the remainder from a rounding division, not a truncating division, and so its behaviour is not analogous to that of the usual integer remainder operator. Instead the ECMAScript language defines
on floating-point operations to behave in a manner analogous to that of the Java integer remainder operator; this may be compared with the C library function fmod.
The result of an ECMAScript floating-point remainder operation is determined by the rules of IEEE arithmetic:
If either operand is
NaN
, the result is
NaN
The sign of the result equals the sign of the dividend.
If the dividend is an infinity, or the divisor is a zero, or both, the result is
NaN
If the dividend is finite and the divisor is an infinity, the result equals the dividend.
If the dividend is a zero and the divisor is nonzero and finite, the result is the same as the dividend.
In the remaining cases, where neither an infinity, nor a zero, nor
NaN
is involved, the floating-point remainder r from a dividend n and a divisor d is defined by the mathematical relation r = n - (d × q) where q is an integer that is negative only if n/d is negative and positive only if n/d is positive, and whose magnitude is as large as possible without exceeding the magnitude of the true mathematical quotient of n and d. r is computed and rounded to the nearest representable value using IEEE 754-2008 round to nearest, ties to even mode.

Applying the Additive Operators to Numbers
The
operator performs addition when applied to two operands of numeric type, producing the sum of the operands. The
operator performs subtraction, producing the difference of two numeric operands.
Addition is a commutative operation, but not always associative.
The result of an addition is determined using the rules of IEEE 754-2008 binary double-precision arithmetic:
If either operand is
NaN
, the result is
NaN
The sum of two infinities of opposite sign is
NaN
The sum of two infinities of the same sign is the infinity of that sign.
The sum of an infinity and a finite value is equal to the infinite operand.
The sum of two negative zeroes is
-0
. The sum of two positive zeroes, or of two zeroes of opposite sign, is
+0
The sum of a zero and a nonzero finite value is equal to the nonzero operand.
The sum of two nonzero finite values of the same magnitude and opposite sign is
+0
In the remaining cases, where neither an infinity, nor a zero, nor
NaN
is involved, and the operands have the same sign or have different magnitudes, the sum is computed and rounded to the nearest representable value using IEEE 754-2008 round to nearest, ties to even mode. If the magnitude is too large to represent, the operation overflows and the result is then an infinity of appropriate sign. The ECMAScript language requires support of gradual underflow as defined by IEEE 754-2008.
Note
The
operator performs subtraction when applied to two operands of numeric type, producing the difference of its operands; the left operand is the minuend and the right operand is the subtrahend. Given numeric operands
and
, it is always the case that
a-b
produces the same result as
a+(-b)

Note 1
Given the above definition of equality:
String comparison can be forced by:
"" + a == "" + b
Numeric comparison can be forced by:
+a == +b
Boolean comparison can be forced by:
!a == !b
Note 2
The equality operators maintain the following invariants:
A != B
is equivalent to
!(A == B)
A == B
is equivalent to
B == A
, except in the order of evaluation of
and
Note 3
The equality operator is not always transitive. For example, there might be two distinct String objects, each representing the same String value; each String object would be considered equal to the String value by the
==
operator, but the two String objects would not be equal to each other. For example:
new String("a") == "a"
and
"a" == new String("a")
are both
true
new String("a") == new String("a")
is
false
Note 4
Comparison of Strings uses a simple equality test on sequences of code unit values. There is no attempt to use the more complex, semantically oriented definitions of character or string equality and collating order defined in the Unicode specification. Therefore Strings values that are canonically equal according to the Unicode standard could test as unequal. In effect this algorithm assumes that both Strings are already in normalized form.

Let and Const Declarations
Note
let
and
const
declarations define variables that are scoped to the
running execution context
's LexicalEnvironment. The variables are created when their containing
Lexical Environment
is instantiated but may not be accessed in any way until the variable's
LexicalBinding
is evaluated. A variable defined by a
LexicalBinding
with an
Initializer
is assigned the value of its
Initializer
's
AssignmentExpression
when the
LexicalBinding
is evaluated, not when the variable is created. If a
LexicalBinding
in a
let
declaration does not have an
Initializer
the variable is assigned the value
undefined
when the
LexicalBinding
is evaluated.

EnumerateObjectProperties (
When the abstract operation EnumerateObjectProperties is called with argument
, the following steps are taken:
Assert:
Type
) is Object.
Return an Iterator object (
25.1.1.2
) whose
next
method iterates over all the String-valued keys of enumerable properties of
. The iterator object is never directly accessible to ECMAScript code. The mechanics and order of enumerating the properties is not specified but must conform to the rules specified below.
The iterator's
throw
and
return
methods are
null
and are never invoked. The iterator's
next
method processes object properties to determine whether the property key should be returned as an iterator value. Returned property keys do not include keys that are Symbols. Properties of the target object may be deleted during enumeration. A property that is deleted before it is processed by the iterator's
next
method is ignored. If new properties are added to the target object during enumeration, the newly added properties are not guaranteed to be processed in the active enumeration. A property name will be returned by the iterator's
next
method at most once in any enumeration.
Enumerating the properties of the target object includes enumerating properties of its prototype, and the prototype of the prototype, and so on, recursively; but a property of a prototype is not processed if it has the same name as a property that has already been processed by the iterator's
next
method. The values of [[Enumerable]] attributes are not considered when determining if a property of a prototype object has already been processed. The enumerable property names of prototype objects must be obtained by invoking EnumerateObjectProperties passing the prototype object as the argument. EnumerateObjectProperties must obtain the own property keys of the target object by calling its [[OwnPropertyKeys]] internal method. Property attributes of the target object must be obtained by calling its [[GetOwnProperty]] internal method.
Note
The following is an informative definition of an ECMAScript generator function that conforms to these rules:
function
EnumerateObjectProperties
obj
let
visited =
new
Set
for
let
key
of

Directive Prologues and the Use Strict Directive
Directive Prologue
is the longest sequence of
ExpressionStatement
productions occurring as the initial
StatementListItem
or
ModuleItem
productions of a
FunctionBody
, a
ScriptBody
, or a
ModuleBody
and where each
ExpressionStatement
in the sequence consists entirely of a
StringLiteral
token followed by a semicolon. The semicolon may appear explicitly or may be inserted by automatic semicolon insertion. A Directive Prologue may be an empty sequence.
Use Strict Directive
is an
ExpressionStatement
in a Directive Prologue whose
StringLiteral
is either the exact code unit sequences
"use strict"
or
'use strict'
. A Use Strict Directive may not contain an
EscapeSequence
or
LineContinuation
A Directive Prologue may contain more than one Use Strict Directive. However, an implementation may issue a warning if this occurs.
Note
The
ExpressionStatement
productions of a Directive Prologue are evaluated normally during evaluation of the containing production. Implementations may define implementation specific meanings for
ExpressionStatement
productions which are not a Use Strict Directive and which occur in a Directive Prologue. If an appropriate notification mechanism exists, an implementation should issue a warning if it encounters in a Directive Prologue an
ExpressionStatement
that is not a Use Strict Directive and which does not have a meaning defined by the implementation.

Note
An
ArrowFunction
does not define local bindings for
arguments
super
this
, or
new.target
. Any reference to
arguments
super
this
, or
new.target
within an
ArrowFunction
must resolve to a binding in a lexically enclosing environment. Typically this will be the Function Environment of an immediately enclosing function. Even though an
ArrowFunction
may contain references to
super
, the function object created in step 4 is not made into a method by performing
MakeMethod
. An
ArrowFunction
that references
super
is always contained within a non-
ArrowFunction
and the necessary state to implement
super
is accessible via the
scope
that is captured by the function object of the
ArrowFunction

A potential tail position call that is immediately followed by return

The abstract operation PrepareForTailCall performs the following steps:
Let
leafContext
be the
running execution context
Suspend
leafContext
Pop
leafContext
from the
execution context stack
. The
execution context
now on the top of the stack becomes the
running execution context
Assert:
leafContext
has no further use. It will never be activated as the
running execution context
A tail position call must either release any transient internal resources associated with the currently executing function
execution context
before invoking the target function or reuse those resources in support of the target function.
Note
For example, a tail position call should only grow an implementation's activation record stack by the amount that the size of the target function's activation record exceeds the size of the calling function's activation record. If the target function's activation record is smaller, then the total size of the stack should decrease.

Note 2
Early errors specified in
15.1.1
prevent name conflicts between function/var declarations and let/const/class declarations as well as redeclaration of let/const/class bindings for declaration contained within a single
Script
. However, such conflicts and redeclarations that span more than one
Script
are detected as runtime errors during GlobalDeclarationInstantiation. If any such errors are detected, no bindings are instantiated for the script. However, if the
global object
is defined using Proxy exotic objects then the runtime tests for conflicting declarations may be unreliable resulting in an
abrupt completion
and some global declarations not being instantiated. If this occurs, the code for the
Script
is not evaluated.
Unlike explicit var or function declarations, properties that are directly created on the
global object
result in global bindings that may be shadowed by let/const/class declarations.

Abstract Module Records
Module Record
encapsulates structural information about the imports and exports of a single module. This information is used to link the imports and exports of sets of connected modules. A Module Record includes four fields that are only used when evaluating a module.
For specification purposes Module Record values are values of the
Record
specification type and can be thought of as existing in a simple object-oriented hierarchy where Module Record is an abstract class with concrete subclasses. This specification only defines a single Module Record concrete subclass named
Source Text Module Record
. Other specifications and implementations may define additional Module Record subclasses corresponding to alternative module definition facilities that they defined.
Module Record defines the fields listed in
Table 37
. All Module Definition subclasses include at least those fields. Module Record also defines the abstract method list in
Table 38
. All Module definition subclasses must provide concrete implementations of these abstract methods.
Table 37: Module Record Fields

Table 38: Abstract Methods of Module Records
Method
Purpose
GetExportedNames(exportStarSet)
Return a list of all names that are either directly or indirectly exported from this module.
ResolveExport(exportName, resolveSet, exportStarSet)
Return the binding of a name exported by this module. Bindings are represented by a
Record
of the form {[[Module]]: Module Record, [[BindingName]]: String}
ModuleDeclarationInstantiation()
Transitively resolve all module dependencies and create a module
Environment Record
for the module.
ModuleEvaluation()
Do nothing if this module has already been evaluated. Otherwise, transitively evaluate all module dependences of this module and then evaluate this module.
ModuleDeclarationInstantiation must be completed prior to invoking this method.
15.2.1.16
Source Text Module Records
Source Text Module Record
is used to represent information about a module that was defined from ECMAScript source text (10) that was parsed using the goal symbol
Module
. Its fields contain digested information about the names that are imported by the module and its concrete methods use this digest to link, instantiate, and evaluate the module.
In addition to the fields, defined in
Table 37
, Source Text Module Records have the additional fields listed in
Table 39
. Each of these fields initially has the value
undefined
Table 39: Additional Fields of Source Text Module Records

15.2.1.16.1
ParseModule (

The abstract operation ParseModule with arguments
sourceText

. ParseModule performs the following steps:
Assert:
sourceText

10
).
Parse
sourceText
using
Module

body
be the resulting parse tree. Otherwise, let
body
be a
List
of one or more
SyntaxError
or
ReferenceError
objects representing the parsing errors and/or early errors. Parsing and
early error
detection may be interweaved in an implementation dependent manner. If more than one parsing error or
early error
is present, the number and ordering of error objects in the list is implementation dependent, but at least one must be present.

Note
An implementation may parse module source text and analyze it for Early Error conditions prior to the evaluation of ParseModule for that module source text. However, the reporting of any errors must be deferred until the point where this specification actually performs ParseModule upon that source text.

Note
ResolveExport attempts to resolve an imported binding to the actual defining module and local binding name. The defining module may be the module represented by the
Module Record
this method was invoked on or some other module that is imported by that module. The parameter
resolveSet
is use to detect unresolved circular import/export paths. If a pair consisting of specific
Module Record
and
exportName
is reached that is already in
resolveSet
, an import circularity has been encountered. Before recursively calling ResolveExport, a pair consisting of
module
and
exportName
is added to
resolveSet
If a defining module is found a
Record
{[[Module]], [[BindingName]]} is returned. This record identifies the resolved binding of the originally requested export. If no definition was found or the request is found to be circular,
null
is returned. If the request is found to be ambiguous, the string
"ambiguous"
is returned.

Runtime Semantics: HostResolveImportedModule (
referencingModule
specifier
HostResolveImportedModule is an implementation defined abstract operation that provides the concrete
Module Record
subclass instance that corresponds to the
ModuleSpecifier
String,
specifier
, occurring within the context of the module represented by the
Module Record
referencingModule
The implementation of HostResolveImportedModule must conform to the following requirements:
The normal return value must be an instance of a concrete subclass of
Module Record
If a
Module Record
corresponding to the pair
referencingModule
specifier
does not exist or cannot be created, an exception must be thrown.
This operation must be idempotent if it completes normally. Each time it is called with a specific
referencingModule
specifier
pair as arguments it must return the same
Module Record
instance.
Multiple different
referencingModule
specifier
pairs may map to the same
Module Record
instance. The actual mapping semantic is implementation defined but typically a normalization process is applied to
specifier
as part of the mapping process. A typical normalization process would include actions such as alphabetic case folding and expansion of relative and abbreviated path specifiers.

Error Handling and Language Extensions
An implementation must report most errors at the time the relevant ECMAScript language construct is evaluated. An
early error
is an error that can be detected and reported prior to the evaluation of any construct in the
Script
containing the error. The presence of an early error prevents the evaluation of the construct. An implementation must report early errors in a
Script
as part of parsing that
Script
in
ParseScript
. Early errors in a
Module
are reported at the point when the
Module
would be evaluated and the
Module
is never initialized. Early errors in
eval
code are reported at the time
eval
is called and prevent evaluation of the
eval
code. All errors that are not early errors are runtime errors.
An implementation must report as an early error any occurrence of a condition that is listed in a “Static Semantics: Early Errors” subclause of this specification.
An implementation shall not treat other kinds of errors as early errors even if the compiler can prove that a construct cannot execute without error under any circumstances. An implementation may issue an early warning in such a case, but it should not report the error until the relevant construct is actually executed.
An implementation shall report all errors as specified, except for the following:
Except as restricted in
16.2
, an implementation may extend
Script
syntax,
Module
syntax, and regular expression pattern or flag syntax. To permit this, all operations (such as calling
eval
, using a regular expression literal, or using the
Function
or
RegExp
constructor) that are allowed to throw
SyntaxError
are permitted to exhibit implementation-defined behaviour instead of throwing
SyntaxError
when they encounter an implementation-defined extension to the script syntax or regular expression pattern or flag syntax.
Except as restricted in
16.2
, an implementation may provide additional types, values, objects, properties, and functions beyond those described in this specification. This may cause constructs (such as looking up a variable in the global scope) to have implementation-defined behaviour instead of throwing an error (such as
ReferenceError
).
An implementation may define behaviour other than throwing
RangeError
for
toFixed
toExponential
, and
toPrecision
when the
fractionDigits
or
precision
argument is outside the specified range.
16.1
HostReportErrors (
errorList
HostReportErrors is an implementation-defined abstract operation that allows host environments to report parsing errors, early errors, and runtime errors.
An implementation of HostReportErrors must complete normally in all cases. The default implementation of HostReportErrors is to do nothing.
Note
errorList
will be a
List
of ECMAScript language values. If the errors are parsing errors or early errors, these will always be
SyntaxError
or
ReferenceError
objects. Runtime errors, however, can be any ECMAScript value.
16.2
Forbidden Extensions
An implementation must not extend this specification in the following ways:
Other than as defined in this specification, ECMAScript Function objects defined using syntactic constructors in
strict mode code
must not be created with own properties named
"caller"
or
"arguments"
other than those that are created by applying the
AddRestrictedFunctionProperties
abstract operation to the function. Such own properties also must not be created for function objects defined using an
ArrowFunction
MethodDefinition
GeneratorDeclaration
GeneratorExpression
ClassDeclaration
, or
ClassExpression
regardless of whether the definition is contained in
strict mode code
. Built-in functions, strict mode functions created using the
Function
constructor, generator functions created using the
Generator
constructor, and functions created using the
bind
method also must not be created with such own properties.
If an implementation extends non-strict or built-in function objects with an own property named
"caller"
the value of that property, as observed using [[Get]] or [[GetOwnProperty]], must not be a strict function object. If it is an accessor property, the function that is the value of the property's [[Get]] attribute must never return a strict function when called.
The behaviour of the following methods must not be extended except as specified in ECMA-402:
Object.prototype.toLocaleString
Array.prototype.toLocaleString
Number.prototype.toLocaleString
Date.prototype.toLocaleDateString
Date.prototype.toLocaleString
Date.prototype.toLocaleTimeString
String.prototype.localeCompare
%TypedArray%.prototype.toLocaleString
The RegExp pattern grammars in
21.2.1
and
B.1.4
must not be extended to recognize any of the source characters A-Z or a-z as
IdentityEscape
[U]
when the U grammar parameter is present.
The Syntactic Grammar must not be extended in any manner that allows the token
to immediate follow source text that matches the
BindingIdentifier
nonterminal symbol.
When processing
strict mode code
, the syntax of
NumericLiteral
must not be extended to include
LegacyOctalIntegerLiteral
and the syntax of
DecimalIntegerLiteral
must not be extended to include
NonOctalDecimalIntegerLiteral
as described in
B.1.1
TemplateCharacter
must not be extended to include
LegacyOctalEscapeSequence
as defined in
B.1.2
When processing
strict mode code
, the extensions defined in
B.3.2
B.3.3
, and
B.3.4
must not be supported.
When parsing for the
Module
goal symbol, the lexical grammar extensions defined in
B.1.3
must not be supported.

ECMAScript Standard Built-in Objects
There are certain built-in objects available whenever an ECMAScript
Script
or
Module
begins execution. One, the
global object
, is part of the lexical environment of the executing program. Others are accessible as initial properties of the
global object
or indirectly as properties of accessible built-in objects.
Unless specified otherwise, a built-in object that is callable as a function is a built-in Function object with the characteristics described in
9.3
. Unless specified otherwise, the [[Extensible]] internal slot of a built-in object initially has the value
true
. Every built-in Function object has a [[Realm]] internal slot whose value is the
Realm Record
of the
realm
for which the object was initially created.
Many built-in objects are functions: they can be invoked with arguments. Some of them furthermore are constructors: they are functions intended for use with the
new
operator. For each built-in function, this specification describes the arguments required by that function and the properties of that function object. For each built-in constructor, this specification furthermore describes properties of the prototype object of that constructor and properties of specific object instances returned by a
new
expression that invokes that constructor.
Unless otherwise specified in the description of a particular function, if a built-in function or constructor is given fewer arguments than the function is specified to require, the function or constructor shall behave exactly as if it had been given sufficient additional arguments, each such argument being the
undefined
value. Such missing arguments are considered to be “not present” and may be identified in that manner by specification algorithms. In the description of a particular function, the terms “
this
value” and “NewTarget” have the meanings given in
9.3
Unless otherwise specified in the description of a particular function, if a built-in function or constructor described is given more arguments than the function is specified to allow, the extra arguments are evaluated by the call and then ignored by the function. However, an implementation may define implementation specific behaviour relating to such arguments as long as the behaviour is not the throwing of a
TypeError
exception that is predicated simply on the presence of an extra argument.
Note 1
Implementations that add additional capabilities to the set of built-in functions are encouraged to do so by adding new functions rather than adding new parameters to existing functions.
Unless otherwise specified every built-in function and every built-in constructor has the Function prototype object, which is the initial value of the expression
Function.prototype
19.2.3
), as the value of its [[Prototype]] internal slot.
Unless otherwise specified every built-in prototype object has the Object prototype object, which is the initial value of the expression
Object.prototype
19.1.3
), as the value of its [[Prototype]] internal slot, except the Object prototype object itself.
Built-in function objects that are not identified as constructors do not implement the [[Construct]] internal method unless otherwise specified in the description of a particular function.
Unless otherwise specified, each built-in function defined in this specification is created as if by calling the
CreateBuiltinFunction
abstract operation (
9.3.3
).
Every built-in Function object, including constructors, has a
length
property whose value is an integer. Unless otherwise specified, this value is equal to the largest number of named arguments shown in the subclause headings for the function description. Optional parameters (which are indicated with brackets:
) or rest parameters (which are shown using the form «...name») are not included in the default argument count.
Note 2
For example, the function object that is the initial value of the
map
property of the Array prototype object is described under the subclause heading «Array.prototype.map (callbackFn [ , thisArg])» which shows the two named arguments callbackFn and thisArg, the latter being optional; therefore the value of the
length
property of that Function object is
Unless otherwise specified, the
length
property of a built-in Function object has the attributes { [[Writable]]:
false
, [[Enumerable]]:
false
, [[Configurable]]:
true
}.
Every built-in Function object, including constructors, that is not identified as an anonymous function has a
name
property whose value is a String. Unless otherwise specified, this value is the name that is given to the function in this specification. For functions that are specified as properties of objects, the name value is the property name string used to access the function. Functions that are specified as get or set accessor functions of built-in properties have
"get "
or
"set "
prepended to the property name string. The value of the
name
property is explicitly specified for each built-in functions whose property key is a Symbol value.
Unless otherwise specified, the
name
property of a built-in Function object, if it exists, has the attributes { [[Writable]]:
false
, [[Enumerable]]:
false
, [[Configurable]]:
true
}.
Every other data property described in clauses 18 through 26 and in Annex
B.2
has the attributes { [[Writable]]:
true
, [[Enumerable]]:
false
, [[Configurable]]:
true
} unless otherwise specified.
Every accessor property described in clauses 18 through 26 and in Annex
B.2
has the attributes { [[Enumerable]]:
false
, [[Configurable]]:
true
} unless otherwise specified. If only a get accessor function is described, the set accessor function is the default value,
undefined
. If only a set accessor is described the get accessor is the default value,
undefined
18
The Global Object
The unique
global object
is created before control enters any
execution context
The
global object
does not have a [[Construct]] internal method; it is not possible to use the
global object
as a constructor with the
new
operator.
The
global object
does not have a [[Call]] internal method; it is not possible to invoke the
global object
as a function.
The value of the [[Prototype]] internal slot of the
global object
is implementation-dependent.
In addition to the properties defined in this specification the
global object
may have additional host defined properties. This may include a property whose value is the
global object
itself; for example, in the HTML document object model the
window
property of the
global object
is the
global object
itself.
18.1
Value Properties of the Global Object
18.1.1
Infinity
The value of
Infinity
is
+∞
(see
6.1.6
). This property has the attributes { [[Writable]]:
false
, [[Enumerable]]:
false
, [[Configurable]]:
false
}.
18.1.2
NaN
The value of
NaN
is
NaN
(see
6.1.6
). This property has the attributes { [[Writable]]:
false
, [[Enumerable]]:
false
, [[Configurable]]:
false
}.
18.1.3
undefined
The value of
undefined
is
undefined
(see
6.1.1

URI Handling Functions
Uniform Resource Identifiers, or URIs, are Strings that identify resources (e.g. web pages or files) and transport protocols by which to access them (e.g. HTTP or FTP) on the Internet. The ECMAScript language itself does not provide any support for using URIs except for functions that encode and decode URIs as described in
18.2.6.2
18.2.6.3
18.2.6.4
and
18.2.6.5
Note
Many implementations of ECMAScript provide additional functions and methods that manipulate web pages; these functions are beyond the scope of this standard.
18.2.6.1
URI Syntax and Semantics
A URI is composed of a sequence of components separated by component separators. The general form is:
Scheme
First
Second
Third
Fourth
where the italicized names represent components and “
”, “
”, “
” and “
” are reserved for use as separators. The
encodeURI
and
decodeURI
functions are intended to work with complete URIs; they assume that any reserved code units in the URI are intended to have special meaning and so are not encoded. The
encodeURIComponent
and
decodeURIComponent
functions are intended to work with the individual component parts of a URI; they assume that any reserved code units represent text and so must be encoded so that they are not interpreted as reserved code units when the component is part of a complete URI.
The following lexical grammar specifies the form of encoded URIs.
Syntax

Note
The above syntax is based upon RFC 2396 and does not reflect changes introduced by the more recent RFC 3986.
Runtime Semantics
When a code unit to be included in a URI is not listed above or is not intended to have the special meaning sometimes given to the reserved code units, that code unit must be encoded. The code unit is transformed into its UTF-8 encoding, with surrogate pairs first converted from UTF-16 to the corresponding code point value. (Note that for code units in the range [0,127] this results in a single octet with the same value.) The resulting sequence of octets is then transformed into a String with each octet represented by an escape sequence of the form
"%xx"

Note
This syntax of Uniform Resource Identifiers is based upon RFC 2396 and does not reflect the more recent RFC 3986 which replaces RFC 2396. A formal description and implementation of UTF-8 is given in RFC 3629.
In UTF-8, characters are encoded using sequences of 1 to 6 octets. The only octet of a sequence of one has the higher-order bit set to 0, the remaining 7 bits being used to encode the character value. In a sequence of n octets, n>1, the initial octet has the n higher-order bits set to 1, followed by a bit set to 0. The remaining bits of that octet contain bits from the value of the character to be encoded. The following octets all have the higher-order bit set to 1 and the following bit set to 0, leaving 6 bits in each to contain bits from the character to be encoded. The possible UTF-8 encodings of ECMAScript characters are specified in

to account for the addition of 0x10000 as in Surrogates, section 3.8, of the Unicode Standard.
The range of code unit values 0xD800-0xDFFF is used to encode surrogate pairs; the above transformation combines a UTF-16 surrogate pair into a UTF-32 representation and encodes the resulting 21-bit value in UTF-8. Decoding reconstructs the surrogate pair.
RFC 3629 prohibits the decoding of invalid UTF-8 octet sequences. For example, the invalid sequence C0 80 must not decode into the code unit 0x0000. Implementations of the Decode algorithm are required to throw a
URIError
when encountering such invalid sequences.

Historically, this function was occasionally used to access the String value of the [[Class]] internal slot that was used in previous editions of this specification as a nominal type tag for various built-in objects. The above definition of
toString
preserves compatibility for legacy code that uses
toString
as a test for those specific kinds of built-in objects. It does not provide a reliable type testing mechanism for other kinds of built-in or program defined objects. In addition, programs can use @@toStringTag in ways that will invalidate the reliability of such legacy type tests.

Function Objects
19.2.1
The Function Constructor
The Function constructor is the
%Function%
intrinsic object and the initial value of the
Function
property of the
global object
. When
Function
is called as a function rather than as a constructor, it creates and initializes a new Function object. Thus the function call
Function(…)
is equivalent to the object creation expression
new Function(…)
with the same arguments.
The
Function
constructor is designed to be subclassable. It may be used as the value of an
extends
clause of a class definition. Subclass constructors that intend to inherit the specified
Function
behaviour must include a
super
call to the
Function
constructor to create and initialize a subclass instances with the internal slots necessary for built-in function behaviour. All ECMAScript syntactic forms for defining function objects create instances of
Function
. There is no syntactic means to create instances of
Function
subclasses except for the built-in Generator Function subclass.
19.2.1.1
Function (

The last argument specifies the body (executable code) of a function; any preceding arguments specify formal parameters.
When the
Function

that was passed to this function by [[Call]] or [[Construct]].
Return ?

, NewTarget,

Note
It is permissible but not necessary to have one argument for each formal parameter to be specified. For example, all three of the following expressions produce the same result:
new
Function
"a"
"b"
"c"
"return a+b+c"
new
Function
"a, b, c"
"return a+b+c"

. The Function prototype object is itself a built-in function object. When invoked, it accepts any arguments and returns
undefined
. It does not have a [[Construct]] internal method so it is not a constructor.
Note
The Function prototype object is specified to be a function object to ensure compatibility with ECMAScript code that was created prior to the ECMAScript 2015 specification.
The value of the [[Prototype]] internal slot of the Function prototype object is the intrinsic object
%ObjectPrototype%

bound function
information or information about the target function.
If

Return an implementation-dependent String source code representation of
func
. The representation must conform to the rules below.
Throw a
TypeError
exception.
toString
Representation Requirements:
The string representation must have the syntax of a
FunctionDeclaration
FunctionExpression
GeneratorDeclaration
GeneratorExpression
ClassDeclaration
ClassExpression
ArrowFunction
MethodDefinition
, or
GeneratorMethod
depending upon the actual characteristics of the object.
The use and placement of white space, line terminators, and semicolons within the representation String is implementation-dependent.
If the object was defined using ECMAScript code and the returned string representation is not in the form of a
MethodDefinition
or
GeneratorMethod
then the representation must be such that if the string is evaluated, using
eval
in a lexical context that is equivalent to the lexical context used to create the original object, it will result in a new functionally equivalent object. In that case the returned source code must not mention freely any variables that were not mentioned freely by the original function's source code, even if these “extra” names were originally in scope.
If the implementation cannot produce a source code string that meets these criteria then it must return a string for which
eval
will throw a
SyntaxError
exception.
19.2.3.6
Function.prototype [ @@hasInstance ] (
When the @@hasInstance method of an object
is called with value
, the following steps are taken:
Let
be the
this
value.
Return ?
OrdinaryHasInstance
).
The value of the
name
property of this function is
"[Symbol.hasInstance]"
This property has the attributes { [[Writable]]:
false
, [[Enumerable]]:
false
, [[Configurable]]:
false
}.
Note
This is the default implementation of
@@hasInstance
that most functions inherit.
@@hasInstance
is called by the
instanceof
operator to determine whether a value is an instance of a specific constructor. An expression such as
instanceof
evaluates as
F[@@hasInstance](v)
A constructor function can control which objects are recognized as its instances by
instanceof
by exposing a different
@@hasInstance
method on the function.
This property is non-writable and non-configurable to prevent tampering that could be used to globally expose the target function of a
bound function
19.2.4
Function Instances
Every function instance is an ECMAScript function object and has the internal slots listed in
Table 27
. Function instances created using the
Function.prototype.bind
method (
19.2.3.2
) have the internal slots listed in
Table 28
The Function instances have the following properties:
19.2.4.1
length
The value of the
length
property is an integer that indicates the typical number of arguments expected by the function. However, the language permits the function to be invoked with some other number of arguments. The behaviour of a function when invoked on a number of arguments other than the number specified by its
length
property depends on the function. This property has the attributes { [[Writable]]:
false
, [[Enumerable]]:
false
, [[Configurable]]:
true
}.
19.2.4.2
name
The value of the
name
property is an String that is descriptive of the function. The name has no semantic significance but is typically a variable or property name that is used to refer to the function at its point of definition in ECMAScript code. This property has the attributes { [[Writable]]:
false
, [[Enumerable]]:
false
, [[Configurable]]:
true
}.
Anonymous functions objects that do not have a contextual name associated with them by this specification do not have a
name
own property but inherit the
name
property of
%FunctionPrototype%
19.2.4.3
prototype
Function instances that can be used as a constructor have a
prototype
property. Whenever such a function instance is created another ordinary object is also created and is the initial value of the function's
prototype
property. Unless otherwise specified, the value of the
prototype
property is used to initialize the [[Prototype]] internal slot of the object created when that function is invoked as a constructor.
This property has the attributes { [[Writable]]:
true
, [[Enumerable]]:
false
, [[Configurable]]:
false
}.
Note
Function objects created using
Function.prototype.bind
, or by evaluating a
MethodDefinition
(that are not a
GeneratorMethod
) or an
ArrowFunction
grammar production do not have a
prototype
property.
19.3
Boolean Objects
19.3.1
The Boolean Constructor

%Boolean%
intrinsic object and the initial value of the
Boolean

The
Boolean
constructor is designed to be subclassable. It may be used as the value of an
extends
clause of a class definition. Subclass constructors that intend to inherit the specified
Boolean
behaviour must include a

The Error Constructor
The Error constructor is the
%Error%
intrinsic object and the initial value of the
Error
property of the
global object
. When
Error
is called as a function rather than as a constructor, it creates and initializes a new Error object. Thus the function call
Error(…)
is equivalent to the object creation expression
new Error(…)
with the same arguments.
The
Error
constructor is designed to be subclassable. It may be used as the value of an
extends
clause of a class definition. Subclass constructors that intend to inherit the specified
Error
behaviour must include a
super
call to the
Error
constructor to create and initialize subclass instances with a [[ErrorData]] internal slot.

Properties of Error Instances
Error instances are ordinary objects that inherit properties from the Error prototype object and have an [[ErrorData]] internal slot whose value is
undefined
. The only specified uses of [[ErrorData]] is to identify Error and
NativeError
instances as Error objects within
Object.prototype.toString
19.5.5
Native Error Types Used in This Standard
A new instance of one of the
NativeError
objects below is thrown when a runtime error is detected. All of these objects share the same structure, as described in
19.5.6
19.5.5.1
EvalError
This exception is not currently used within this specification. This object remains for compatibility with previous editions of this specification.
19.5.5.2
RangeError
Indicates a value that is not in the set or range of allowable values.
19.5.5.3
ReferenceError
Indicate that an invalid reference value has been detected.
19.5.5.4
SyntaxError
Indicates that a parsing error has occurred.
19.5.5.5
TypeError
TypeError is used to indicate an unsuccessful operation when none of the other
NativeError
objects are an appropriate indication of the failure cause.
19.5.5.6
URIError
Indicates that one of the global URI handling functions was used in a way that is incompatible with its definition.
19.5.6
NativeError
Object Structure
When an ECMAScript implementation detects a runtime error, it throws a new instance of one of the
NativeError
objects defined in
19.5.5
. Each of these objects has the structure described below, differing only in the name used as the constructor name instead of
NativeError
, in the
name
property of the prototype object, and in the implementation-defined
message
property of the prototype object.
For each error object, references to
NativeError
in the definition should be replaced with the appropriate error object name from
19.5.5
19.5.6.1
NativeError
Constructors
When a
NativeError
constructor is called as a function rather than as a constructor, it creates and initializes a new
NativeError
object. A call of the object as a function is equivalent to calling it as a constructor with the same arguments. Thus the function call
NativeError
(…)
is equivalent to the object creation expression
new
NativeError
(…)
with the same arguments.
Each
NativeError
constructor is designed to be subclassable. It may be used as the value of an
extends
clause of a class definition. Subclass constructors that intend to inherit the specified
NativeError
behaviour must include a
super
call to the
NativeError
constructor to create and initialize subclass instances with a [[ErrorData]] internal slot.

Properties of Number Instances
Number instances are ordinary objects that inherit properties from the Number prototype object. Number instances also have a [[NumberData]] internal slot. The [[NumberData]] internal slot is the Number value represented by this Number object.
20.2
The Math Object
The Math object is the
%Math%
intrinsic object and the initial value of the
Math
property of the
global object
. The Math object is a single ordinary object.
The value of the [[Prototype]] internal slot of the Math object is the intrinsic object
%ObjectPrototype%
The Math object is not a function object. It does not have a [[Construct]] internal method; it is not possible to use the Math object as a constructor with the
new
operator. The Math object also does not have a [[Call]] internal method; it is not possible to invoke the Math object as a function.

is not precisely specified here except to require specific results for certain argument values that represent boundary cases of interest. For other argument values, these functions are intended to compute approximations to the results of familiar mathematical functions, but some latitude is allowed in the choice of approximation algorithms. The general intent is that an implementer should be able to use the same mathematical library for ECMAScript on a given hardware platform that is available to C programmers on that platform.
Although the choice of algorithms is left to the implementation, it is recommended (but not specified by this standard) that implementations use the approximation algorithms for IEEE 754-2008 arithmetic contained in

Date Objects
20.3.1
Overview of Date Objects and Definitions of Abstract Operations
The following functions are abstract operations that operate on time values (defined in
20.3.1.1
). Note that, in every case, if any argument to one of these functions is
NaN
, the result will be
NaN
20.3.1.1
Time Values and Time Range
A Date object contains a Number indicating a particular instant in time to within a millisecond. Such a Number is called a
time value
. A time value may also be
NaN
, indicating that the Date object does not represent a specific instant of time.
Time is measured in ECMAScript in milliseconds since 01 January, 1970 UTC. In time values leap seconds are ignored. It is assumed that there are exactly 86,400,000 milliseconds per day. ECMAScript Number values can represent all integers from -9,007,199,254,740,992 to 9,007,199,254,740,992; this range suffices to measure times to millisecond precision for any instant that is within approximately 285,616 years, either forward or backward, from 01 January, 1970 UTC.
The actual range of times supported by ECMAScript Date objects is slightly smaller: exactly -100,000,000 days to 100,000,000 days measured relative to midnight at the beginning of 01 January, 1970 UTC. This gives a range of 8,640,000,000,000,000 milliseconds to either side of 01 January, 1970 UTC.
The exact moment of midnight at the beginning of 01 January, 1970 UTC is represented by the value
+0

The remainder is called the time within the day:
TimeWithinDay
) =
modulo
msPerDay
20.3.1.3
Year Number
ECMAScript uses an extrapolated Gregorian system to map a day number to a year number and to determine the month and date within that year. In this system, leap years are precisely those which are (divisible by 4) and ((not divisible by 100) or (divisible by 400)). The number of days in year number
is therefore defined by
DaysInYear
= 365 if (
modulo
4) ≠ 0
= 366 if (
modulo
4) = 0 and (
modulo
100) ≠ 0
= 365 if (
modulo
100) = 0 and (
modulo
400) ≠ 0
= 366 if (
modulo
400) = 0
All non-leap years have 365 days with the usual number of days per month and leap years have an extra day in February. The day number of the first day of year
is given by:
DayFromYear
) = 365 × (
-1970) +
floor
((
-1969)/4) -
floor
((
-1901)/100) +

The
time value
of the start of a year is:
TimeFromYear

msPerDay
DayFromYear

YearFromTime

(closest to positive infinity) such that
TimeFromYear

The leap-year function is 1 for a time within a leap year and otherwise is zero:

20.3.1.4
Month Number
Months are identified by an integer in the range 0 to 11, inclusive. The mapping MonthFromTime(

time value
to a month number is defined by:

, corresponding to Thursday, 01 January, 1970.
20.3.1.7
Local Time Zone Adjustment
An implementation of ECMAScript is expected to determine the local time zone adjustment. The local time zone adjustment is a value
LocalTZA
measured in milliseconds which when added to UTC represents the local
standard
time. Daylight saving time is
not
reflected by LocalTZA.
Note
It is recommended that implementations use the time zone information of the IANA Time Zone Database

Note
The point of step 4 is that an implementation is permitted a choice of internal representations of time values, for example as a 64-bit signed integer or as a 64-bit floating-point value. Depending on the implementation, this internal representation may or may not distinguish
-0
and
+0
20.3.1.16
Date Time String Format
ECMAScript defines a string interchange format for date-times based upon a simplification of the ISO 8601 Extended Format. The format is as follows:
YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm:ss.sssZ
Where the fields are as follows:
YYYY
is the decimal digits of the year 0000 to 9999 in the Gregorian calendar.
"-"
(hyphen) appears literally twice in the string.
MM
is the month of the year from 01 (January) to 12 (December).
DD
is the day of the month from 01 to 31.
"T"
appears literally in the string, to indicate the beginning of the time element.
HH
is the number of complete hours that have passed since midnight as two decimal digits from 00 to 24.
":"
(colon) appears literally twice in the string.
mm
is the number of complete minutes since the start of the hour as two decimal digits from 00 to 59.
ss
is the number of complete seconds since the start of the minute as two decimal digits from 00 to 59.
"."
(dot) appears literally in the string.
sss
is the number of complete milliseconds since the start of the second as three decimal digits.
is the time zone offset specified as
"Z"
(for UTC) or either
"+"
or
"-"
followed by a time expression
HH:mm
This format includes date-only forms:
YYYY
YYYY-MM
YYYY-MM-DD
It also includes “date-time” forms that consist of one of the above date-only forms immediately followed by one of the following time forms with an optional time zone offset appended:
THH:mm
THH:mm:ss
THH:mm:ss.sss
All numbers must be base 10. If the
MM
or
DD
fields are absent
"01"
is used as the value. If the
HH
mm
, or
ss
fields are absent
"00"
is used as the value and the value of an absent
sss
field is
"000"
. When the time zone offset is absent, date-only forms are interpreted as a UTC time and date-time forms are interpreted as a local time.
Illegal values (out-of-bounds as well as syntax errors) in a format string means that the format string is not a valid instance of this format.
Note 1
As every day both starts and ends with midnight, the two notations
00:00
and
24:00
are available to distinguish the two midnights that can be associated with one date. This means that the following two notations refer to exactly the same point in time:
1995-02-04T24:00
and
1995-02-05T00:00
Note 2
There exists no international standard that specifies abbreviations for civil time zones like CET, EST, etc. and sometimes the same abbreviation is even used for two very different time zones. For this reason, ISO 8601 and this format specifies numeric representations of date and time.
20.3.1.16.1
Extended Years
ECMAScript requires the ability to specify 6 digit years (extended years); approximately 285,426 years, either forward or backward, from 01 January, 1970 UTC. To represent years before 0 or after 9999, ISO 8601 permits the expansion of the year representation, but only by prior agreement between the sender and the receiver. In the simplified ECMAScript format such an expanded year representation shall have 2 extra year digits and is always prefixed with a + or - sign. The year 0 is considered positive and hence prefixed with a + sign.
Note
Examples of extended years:
-283457-03-21T15:00:59.008Z

20.3.2
The Date Constructor
The Date constructor is the
%Date%
intrinsic object and the initial value of the
Date
property of the
global object
. When called as a constructor it creates and initializes a new Date object. When
Date
is called as a function rather than as a constructor, it returns a String representing the current time (UTC).
The
Date
constructor is a single function whose behaviour is overloaded based upon the number and types of its arguments.
The
Date
constructor is designed to be subclassable. It may be used as the value of an
extends
clause of a class definition. Subclass constructors that intend to inherit the specified
Date
behaviour must include a
super
call to the
Date
constructor to create and initialize the subclass instance with a [[DateValue]] internal slot.
The
length
property of the
Date
constructor function is 7.

20.3.3
Properties of the Date Constructor
The value of the [[Prototype]] internal slot of the Date constructor is the intrinsic object
%FunctionPrototype%
The Date constructor has the following properties:
20.3.3.1
Date.now ( )
The
now
function returns a Number value that is the
time value
designating the UTC date and time of the occurrence of the call to
now
20.3.3.2
Date.parse (
string
The
parse
function applies the
ToString
operator to its argument. If
ToString
results in an
abrupt completion
the
Completion Record
is immediately returned. Otherwise,
parse
interprets the resulting String as a date and time; it returns a Number, the UTC
time value
corresponding to the date and time. The String may be interpreted as a local time, a UTC time, or a time in some other time zone, depending on the contents of the String. The function first attempts to parse the format of the String according to the rules (including extended years) called out in Date Time String Format (
20.3.1.16
). If the String does not conform to that format the function may fall back to any implementation-specific heuristics or implementation-specific date formats. Unrecognizable Strings or dates containing illegal element values in the format String shall cause
Date.parse
to return
NaN
If
is any Date object whose milliseconds amount is zero within a particular implementation of ECMAScript, then all of the following expressions should produce the same numeric value in that implementation, if all the properties referenced have their initial values:
x.valueOf()
Date
.parse(x.toString())
Date
.parse(x.toUTCString())
Date
.parse(x.toISOString())
However, the expression
Date
.parse(x.toLocaleString())
is not required to produce the same Number value as the preceding three expressions and, in general, the value produced by
Date.parse
is implementation-dependent when given any String value that does not conform to the Date Time String Format (
20.3.1.16
) and that could not be produced in that implementation by the
toString
or
toUTCString
method.
20.3.3.3
Date.prototype
The initial value of
Date.prototype
is the intrinsic object
%DatePrototype%
This property has the attributes { [[Writable]]:

The

20.3.4
Properties of the Date Prototype Object
The Date prototype object is the intrinsic object
%DatePrototype%
. The Date prototype object is itself an ordinary object. It is not a Date instance and does not have a [[DateValue]] internal slot.
The value of the [[Prototype]] internal slot of the Date prototype object is the intrinsic object
%ObjectPrototype%
Unless explicitly defined otherwise, the methods of the Date prototype object defined below are not generic and the
this
value passed to them must be an object that has a [[DateValue]] internal slot that has been initialized to a
time value
The abstract operation thisTimeValue(

String Objects
21.1.1
The String Constructor
The String constructor is the
%String%
intrinsic object and the initial value of the
String
property of the
global object
. When called as a constructor it creates and initializes a new String object. When
String
is called as a function rather than as a constructor, it performs a type conversion.
The
String
constructor is designed to be subclassable. It may be used as the value of an
extends
clause of a class definition. Subclass constructors that intend to inherit the specified
String
behaviour must include a
super
call to the
String
constructor to create and initialize the subclass instance with a [[StringData]] internal slot.

21.1.3
Properties of the String Prototype Object
The String prototype object is the intrinsic object
%StringPrototype%
. The String prototype object is an ordinary object. The String prototype is itself a String object; it has a [[StringData]] internal slot with the value
""
The value of the [[Prototype]] internal slot of the String prototype object is the intrinsic object
%ObjectPrototype%
Unless explicitly stated otherwise, the methods of the String prototype object defined below are not generic and the
this
value passed to them must be either a String value or an object that has a [[StringData]] internal slot that has been initialized to a String value.
The abstract operation thisStringValue(
value
) performs the following steps:

21.1.3.10
String.prototype.localeCompare (
that
[ ,
reserved1
[ ,
reserved2
] ] )
An ECMAScript implementation that includes the ECMA-402 Internationalization API must implement the
localeCompare
method as specified in the ECMA-402 specification. If an ECMAScript implementation does not include the ECMA-402 API the following specification of the
localeCompare
method is used.
When the
localeCompare
method is called with argument
that
, it returns a Number other than
NaN
that represents the result of a locale-sensitive String comparison of the
this
value (converted to a String) with
that
(converted to a String). The two Strings are
and
That
. The two Strings are compared in an implementation-defined fashion. The result is intended to order String values in the sort order specified by a host default locale, and will be negative, zero, or positive, depending on whether
comes before
That
in the sort order, the Strings are equal, or
comes after
That
in the sort order, respectively.
Before performing the comparisons, the following steps are performed to prepare the Strings:
Let
be ?
RequireObjectCoercible
this
value).
Let
be ?
ToString
).
Let
That
be ?
ToString
that
).
The meaning of the optional second and third parameters to this method are defined in the ECMA-402 specification; implementations that do not include ECMA-402 support must not assign any other interpretation to those parameter positions.
The
localeCompare
method, if considered as a function of two arguments
this
and
that
, is a consistent comparison function (as defined in
22.1.3.25
) on the set of all Strings.
The actual return values are implementation-defined to permit implementers to encode additional information in the value, but the function is required to define a total ordering on all Strings. This function must treat Strings that are canonically equivalent according to the Unicode standard as identical and must return
when comparing Strings that are considered canonically equivalent.
Note 1
The
localeCompare
method itself is not directly suitable as an argument to
Array.prototype.sort
because the latter requires a function of two arguments.
Note 2
This function is intended to rely on whatever language-sensitive comparison functionality is available to the ECMAScript environment from the host environment, and to compare according to the rules of the host environment's current locale. However, regardless of the host provided comparison capabilities, this function must treat Strings that are canonically equivalent according to the Unicode standard as identical. It is recommended that this function should not honour Unicode compatibility equivalences or decompositions. For a definition and discussion of canonical equivalence see the Unicode Standard, chapters 2 and 3, as well as Unicode Standard Annex #15, Unicode Normalization Forms (
) and Unicode Technical Note #5, Canonical Equivalence in Applications (
). Also see Unicode Technical Standard #10, Unicode Collation Algorithm (
).
Note 3
The
localeCompare
function is intentionally generic; it does not require that its
this
value be a String object. Therefore, it can be transferred to other kinds of objects for use as a method.

Note 1
The value of
separator
may be an empty String. In this case,
separator
does not match the empty substring at the beginning or end of the input String, nor does it match the empty substring at the end of the previous separator match. If
separator
is the empty String, the String is split up into individual code unit elements; the length of the result array equals the length of the String, and each substring contains one code unit.
If the
this
object is (or converts to) the empty String, the result depends on whether
separator
can match the empty String. If it can, the result array contains no elements. Otherwise, the result array contains one element, which is the empty String.
If
separator
is

String.prototype.toLocaleLowerCase ( [
reserved1
[ ,

An ECMAScript implementation that includes the ECMA-402 Internationalization API must implement the
toLocaleLowerCase
method as specified in the ECMA-402 specification. If an ECMAScript implementation does not include the ECMA-402 API the following specification of the
toLocaleLowerCase
method is used.
This function interprets a String value as a sequence of UTF-16 encoded code points, as described in
6.1.4
This function works exactly the same as
toLowerCase
except that its result is intended to yield the correct result for the host environment's current locale, rather than a locale-independent result. There will only be a difference in the few cases (such as Turkish) where the rules for that language conflict with the regular Unicode case mappings.
The meaning of the optional parameters to this method are defined in the ECMA-402 specification; implementations that do not include ECMA-402 support must not use those parameter positions for anything else.

Properties of String Instances
String instances are String exotic objects and have the internal methods specified for such objects. String instances inherit properties from the String prototype object. String instances also have a [[StringData]] internal slot.
String instances have a
length
property, and a set of enumerable properties with integer indexed names.

21.2.2
Pattern Semantics
A regular expression pattern is converted into an internal procedure using the process described below. An implementation is encouraged to use more efficient algorithms than the ones listed below, as long as the results are the same. The internal procedure is used as the value of a RegExp object's [[RegExpMatcher]] internal slot.
Pattern
is either a BMP pattern or a Unicode pattern depending upon whether or not its associated flags contain a
"u"
. A BMP pattern matches against a String interpreted as consisting of a sequence of 16-bit values that are Unicode code points in the range of the Basic Multilingual Plane. A Unicode pattern matches against a String interpreted as consisting of Unicode code points encoded using UTF-16. In the context of describing the behaviour of a BMP pattern “character” means a single 16-bit Unicode BMP code point. In the context of describing the behaviour of a Unicode pattern “character” means a UTF-16 encoded code point (
6.1.4
). In either context, “character value” means the numeric value of the corresponding non-encoded code point.
The syntax and semantics of
Pattern
is defined as if the source code for the
Pattern
was a
List
of
SourceCharacter
values where each
SourceCharacter
corresponds to a Unicode code point. If a BMP pattern contains a non-BMP
SourceCharacter
the entire pattern is encoded using UTF-16 and the individual code units of that encoding are used as the elements of the
List
Note
For example, consider a pattern expressed in source text as the single non-BMP character U+1D11E (MUSICAL SYMBOL G CLEF). Interpreted as a Unicode pattern, it would be a single element (character)
List
consisting of the single code point 0x1D11E. However, interpreted as a BMP pattern, it is first UTF-16 encoded to produce a two element
List
consisting of the code units 0xD834 and 0xDD1E.
Patterns are passed to the RegExp constructor as ECMAScript String values in which non-BMP characters are UTF-16 encoded. For example, the single character MUSICAL SYMBOL G CLEF pattern, expressed as a String value, is a String of length 2 whose elements were the code units 0xD834 and 0xDD1E. So no further translation of the string would be necessary to process it as a BMP pattern consisting of two pattern characters. However, to process it as a Unicode pattern
UTF16Decode
must be used in producing a
List
consisting of a single pattern character, the code point U+1D11E.
An implementation may not actually perform such translations to or from UTF-16, but the semantics of this specification requires that the result of pattern matching be as if such translations were performed.
21.2.2.1
Notation
The descriptions below use the following variables:
Input
is a
List
consisting of all of the characters, in order, of the String being matched by the regular expression pattern. Each character is either a code unit or a code point, depending upon the kind of pattern involved. The notation

Input
, where

InputLength
(exclusive).
InputLength

Input
NcapturingParens
is the total number of left capturing parentheses (i.e. the total number of times the

Furthermore, the descriptions below use the following internal data structures:
CharSet
is a mathematical set of characters, either code units or code points depending up the state of the
Unicode
flag. “All characters” means either all code unit values or all code point values also depending upon the state if
Unicode
State
is an ordered pair (
endIndex
captures
) where
endIndex
is an integer and
captures
is a
List
of
NcapturingParens
values. States are used to represent partial match states in the regular expression matching algorithms. The
endIndex
is one plus the index of the last input character matched so far by the pattern, while
captures
holds the results of capturing parentheses. The
th
element of
captures
is either a
List
that represents the value obtained by the
th
set of capturing parentheses or
undefined
if the
th
set of capturing parentheses hasn't been reached yet. Due to backtracking, many States may be in use at any time during the matching process.
MatchResult
is either a State or the special token
failure
that indicates that the match failed.
Continuation
procedure is an internal closure (i.e. an internal procedure with some arguments already bound to values) that takes one State argument and returns a MatchResult result. If an internal closure references variables which are bound in the function that creates the closure, the closure uses the values that these variables had at the time the closure was created. The Continuation attempts to match the remaining portion (specified by the closure's already-bound arguments) of the pattern against
Input
, starting at the intermediate state given by its State argument. If the match succeeds, the Continuation returns the final State that it reached; if the match fails, the Continuation returns
failure
Matcher
procedure is an internal closure that takes two arguments — a State and a Continuation — and returns a MatchResult result. A Matcher attempts to match a middle subpattern (specified by the closure's already-bound arguments) of the pattern against
Input
, starting at the intermediate state given by its State argument. The Continuation argument should be a closure that matches the rest of the pattern. After matching the subpattern of a pattern to obtain a new State, the Matcher then calls Continuation on that new State to test if the rest of the pattern can match as well. If it can, the Matcher returns the State returned by Continuation; if not, the Matcher may try different choices at its choice points, repeatedly calling Continuation until it either succeeds or all possibilities have been exhausted.
An
AssertionTester
procedure is an internal closure that takes a State argument and returns a Boolean result. The assertion tester tests a specific condition (specified by the closure's already-bound arguments) against the current place in
Input
and returns
true
if the condition matched or
false
if not.
An
EscapeValue
is either a character or an integer. An EscapeValue is used to denote the interpretation of a
DecimalEscape
escape sequence: a character
ch
means that the escape sequence is interpreted as the character
ch
, while an integer
means that the escape sequence is interpreted as a backreference to the
th
set of capturing parentheses.

Note
A Pattern evaluates (“compiles”) to an internal procedure value.
RegExpBuiltinExec
can then apply this procedure to a String and an offset within the String to determine whether the pattern would match starting at exactly that offset within the String, and, if it does match, what the values of the capturing parentheses would be. The algorithms in
21.2.2
are designed so that compiling a pattern may throw a
SyntaxError
exception; on the other hand, once the pattern is successfully compiled, applying the resulting internal procedure to find a match in a String cannot throw an exception (except for any host-defined exceptions that can occur anywhere such as out-of-memory).

Note 1
An
Atom
followed by a
Quantifier
is repeated the number of times specified by the
Quantifier
. A
Quantifier
can be non-greedy, in which case the
Atom
pattern is repeated as few times as possible while still matching the sequel, or it can be greedy, in which case the
Atom
pattern is repeated as many times as possible while still matching the sequel. The
Atom
pattern is repeated rather than the input character sequence that it matches, so different repetitions of the
Atom
can match different input substrings.
Note 2
If the
Atom
and the sequel of the regular expression all have choice points, the
Atom
is first matched as many (or as few, if non-greedy) times as possible. All choices in the sequel are tried before moving on to the next choice in the last repetition of
Atom
. All choices in the last (n
th
) repetition of
Atom
are tried before moving on to the next choice in the next-to-last (n-1)
st
repetition of
Atom
; at which point it may turn out that more or fewer repetitions of
Atom
are now possible; these are exhausted (again, starting with either as few or as many as possible) before moving on to the next choice in the (n-1)
st
repetition of
Atom
and so on.
Compare
/a[a-z]{
}/.exec(
"abcdefghi"
which returns
"abcde"
with
/a[a-z]{
}?
/.exec("abcdefghi")
which returns
"abc"
Consider also
/(aa|aabaac|ba|b|c)*
/.exec("aabaac")
which, by the choice point ordering above, returns the array
"aaba"
"ba"
and not any of:
"aabaac"
"aabaac"
"aabaac"
"c"
The above ordering of choice points can be used to write a regular expression that calculates the greatest common divisor of two numbers (represented in unary notation). The following example calculates the gcd of 10 and 15:
"aaaaaaaaaa,aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa"
.replace(
/^(a+)\1*,\1+$/
"$1"
which returns the gcd in unary notation
"aaaaa"
Note 3
Step 4 of the RepeatMatcher clears
Atom
's captures each time
Atom
is repeated. We can see its behaviour in the regular expression
/(z)((a+)?(b+)?(c))*
/.exec("zaacbbbcac")
which returns the array
"zaacbbbcac"
"z"
"ac"
"a"
undefined
"c"
and not
"zaacbbbcac"
"z"
"ac"
"a"
"bbb"
"c"
because each iteration of the outermost
clears all captured Strings contained in the quantified
Atom
, which in this case includes capture Strings numbered 2, 3, 4, and 5.
Note 4
Step 1 of the RepeatMatcher's
closure states that, once the minimum number of repetitions has been satisfied, any more expansions of
Atom
that match the empty character sequence are not considered for further repetitions. This prevents the regular expression engine from falling into an infinite loop on patterns such as:
/(a*)*
/.exec("b")
or the slightly more complicated:
/(a*)b\
/.exec("baaaac")
which returns the array
"b"
""

Note 1
Parentheses of the form
Disjunction
serve both to group the components of the
Disjunction
pattern together and to save the result of the match. The result can be used either in a backreference (
followed by a nonzero decimal number), referenced in a replace String, or returned as part of an array from the regular expression matching internal procedure. To inhibit the capturing behaviour of parentheses, use the form
(?:
Disjunction
instead.
Note 2
The form
(?=
Disjunction
specifies a zero-width positive lookahead. In order for it to succeed, the pattern inside
Disjunction
must match at the current position, but the current position is not advanced before matching the sequel. If
Disjunction
can match at the current position in several ways, only the first one is tried. Unlike other regular expression operators, there is no backtracking into a
(?=
form (this unusual behaviour is inherited from Perl). This only matters when the
Disjunction
contains capturing parentheses and the sequel of the pattern contains backreferences to those captures.
For example,
/(?=(a+))/.exec(
"baaabac"
matches the empty String immediately after the first
and therefore returns the array:
""
"aaa"
To illustrate the lack of backtracking into the lookahead, consider:
/(?=(a+))a*b\
/.exec(
"baaabac"
This expression returns
"aba"
"a"
and not:
"aaaba"
"a"
Note 3
The form
(?!
Disjunction
specifies a zero-width negative lookahead. In order for it to succeed, the pattern inside
Disjunction
must fail to match at the current position. The current position is not advanced before matching the sequel.
Disjunction
can contain capturing parentheses, but backreferences to them only make sense from within
Disjunction
itself. Backreferences to these capturing parentheses from elsewhere in the pattern always return
undefined
because the negative lookahead must fail for the pattern to succeed. For example,
/(.*?)a(?!(a+)b\
c)\
(.*)/.exec(
"baaabaac"
looks for an
not immediately followed by some positive number n of
's, a
, another n
's (specified by the first
\2
) and a
. The second
\2
is outside the negative lookahead, so it matches against
undefined
and therefore always succeeds. The whole expression returns the array:
"baaabaac"
"ba"
undefined
"abaac"
Note 4
In case-insignificant matches when
Unicode
is
true
, all characters are implicitly case-folded using the simple mapping provided by the Unicode standard immediately before they are compared. The simple mapping always maps to a single code point, so it does not map, for example,
"ß"
(U+00DF) to
"SS"
. It may however map a code point outside the Basic Latin range to a character within, for example,
"ſ"
(U+017F) to
"s"
. Such characters are not mapped if
Unicode
is
false
. This prevents Unicode code points such as U+017F and U+212A from matching regular expressions such as
/[a-z]/i
, but they will match
/[a-z]/ui

The RegExp Constructor
The RegExp constructor is the
%RegExp%
intrinsic object and the initial value of the
RegExp
property of the
global object
. When
RegExp
is called as a function rather than as a constructor, it creates and initializes a new RegExp object. Thus the function call
RegExp(…)
is equivalent to the object creation expression
new RegExp(…)
with the same arguments.
The
RegExp
constructor is designed to be subclassable. It may be used as the value of an
extends
clause of a class definition. Subclass constructors that intend to inherit the specified
RegExp
behaviour must include a
super
call to the
RegExp
constructor to create and initialize subclass instances with the necessary internal slots.

Note
If pattern is supplied using a

, the usual escape sequence substitutions are performed before the String is processed by RegExp. If pattern must contain an escape sequence to be recognized by RegExp, any U+005C (REVERSE SOLIDUS) code points must be escaped within the
StringLiteral
to prevent them being removed when the contents of the
StringLiteral
are formed.

21.2.5.11
RegExp.prototype [ @@split ] (
string
limit
Note 1
Returns an Array object into which substrings of the result of converting
string
to a String have been stored. The substrings are determined by searching from left to right for matches of the
this
value regular expression; these occurrences are not part of any substring in the returned array, but serve to divide up the String value.
The
this
value may be an empty regular expression or a regular expression that can match an empty String. In this case, the regular expression does not match the empty substring at the beginning or end of the input String, nor does it match the empty substring at the end of the previous separator match. (For example, if the regular expression matches the empty String, the String is split up into individual code unit elements; the length of the result array equals the length of the String, and each substring contains one code unit.) Only the first match at a given index of the String is considered, even if backtracking could yield a non-empty-substring match at that index. (For example,
/a*?/[Symbol.split]("ab")
evaluates to the array
["a","b"]
, while
/a*/[Symbol.split]("ab")
evaluates to the array
["","b"]
.)
If the
string
is (or converts to) the empty String, the result depends on whether the regular expression can match the empty String. If it can, the result array contains no elements. Otherwise, the result array contains one element, which is the empty String.
If the regular expression contains capturing parentheses, then each time
separator
is matched the results (including any
undefined
results) of the capturing parentheses are spliced into the output array. For example,
(\
/)?([^<>
]+)>/[Symbol.split]("A
bold
and
CODE
coded
CODE
")
evaluates to the array
"A"
undefined
"B"
"bold"
"/"
"B"
"and"
undefined
"CODE"
"coded"
"/"
"CODE"
""
If
limit

Properties of RegExp Instances
RegExp instances are ordinary objects that inherit properties from the RegExp prototype object. RegExp instances have internal slots [[RegExpMatcher]], [[OriginalSource]], and [[OriginalFlags]]. The value of the [[RegExpMatcher]] internal slot is an implementation dependent representation of the
Pattern
of the RegExp object.
Note
Prior to ECMAScript 2015,
RegExp
instances were specified as having the own data properties
source
global
ignoreCase
, and
multiline
. Those properties are now specified as accessor properties of RegExp.prototype.
RegExp instances also have the following property:
21.2.6.1
lastIndex
The value of the
lastIndex
property specifies the String index at which to start the next match. It is coerced to an integer when used (see
21.2.5.2.2
). This property shall have the attributes { [[Writable]]:
true
, [[Enumerable]]:
false
, [[Configurable]]:
false
}.

Indexed Collections
22.1
Array Objects
Array objects are exotic objects that give special treatment to a certain class of property names. See
9.4.2
for a definition of this special treatment.
22.1.1
The Array Constructor
The Array constructor is the
%Array%
intrinsic object and the initial value of the
Array
property of the
global object
. When called as a constructor it creates and initializes a new exotic Array object. When
Array
is called as a function rather than as a constructor, it also creates and initializes a new Array object. Thus the function call
Array(…)
is equivalent to the object creation expression
new Array(…)
with the same arguments.
The
Array
constructor is a single function whose behaviour is overloaded based upon the number and types of its arguments.
The
Array
constructor is designed to be subclassable. It may be used as the value of an
extends
clause of a class definition. Subclass constructors that intend to inherit the exotic
Array
behaviour must include a
super
call to the
Array
constructor to initialize subclass instances that are exotic Array objects. However, most of the
Array.prototype
methods are generic methods that are not dependent upon their
this
value being an exotic Array object.
The
length
property of the
Array
constructor function is 1.

Note
Array prototype methods normally use their
this

22.1.3
Properties of the Array Prototype Object
The Array prototype object is the intrinsic object

Note 1
callbackfn

some
calls

callbackfn
returns

some
immediately returns
true
. Otherwise,
some
returns
false
callbackfn
is called only for elements of the array which actually exist; it is not called for missing elements of the array.
If a
thisArg
parameter is provided, it will be used as the
this
value for each invocation of
callbackfn
. If it is not provided,
undefined
is used instead.
callbackfn
is called with three arguments: the value of the element, the index of the element, and the object being traversed.
some

callbackfn
The range of elements processed by

Array.prototype.sort (
comparefn
The elements of this array are sorted. The sort is not necessarily stable (that is, elements that compare equal do not necessarily remain in their original order). If
comparefn
is not
undefined
, it should be a function that accepts two arguments
and
and returns a negative value if
, zero if
, or a positive value if
Upon entry, the following steps are performed to initialize evaluation of the
sort
function:
Let
obj
be ?
ToObject
this
value).
Let
len
be ?
ToLength
(?
Get
obj

)).
Within this specification of the
sort
method, an object,
obj
, is said to be
sparse
if the following algorithm returns
true
For each integer
in the range 0≤
len
Let
elem
be
obj
.[[GetOwnProperty]](!

If
elem
is

Return
false
The
sort order
is the ordering, after completion of this function, of the integer indexed property values of
obj
whose integer indexes are less than
len
. The result of the
sort
function is then determined as follows:
If
comparefn
is not
undefined
and is not a consistent comparison function for the elements of this array (see below), the sort order is implementation-defined. The sort order is also implementation-defined if
comparefn
is
undefined
and
SortCompare
does not act as a consistent comparison function.
Let
proto
be
obj
.[[GetPrototypeOf]](). If
proto
is not
null
and there exists an integer
such that all of the conditions below are satisfied then the sort order is implementation-defined:
obj
is sparse

len
HasProperty
proto
ToString

true
The sort order is also implementation defined if
obj
is sparse and any of the following conditions are true:
IsExtensible
obj
) is
false
Any integer index property of
obj
whose name is a nonnegative integer less than
len
is a data property whose [[Configurable]] attribute is
false
The sort order is also implementation defined if any of the following conditions are true:
If
obj
is an exotic object (including Proxy exotic objects) whose behaviour for [[Get]], [[Set]], [[Delete]], and [[GetOwnProperty]] is not the ordinary object implementation of these internal methods.
If any index property of
obj
whose name is a nonnegative integer less than
len
is an accessor property or is a data property whose [[Writable]] attribute is
false
If
comparefn
is
undefined
and the application of
ToString
to any value passed as an argument to
SortCompare
modifies
obj
or any object on
obj
's prototype chain.
If
comparefn
is
undefined
and all applications of
ToString
, to any specific value passed as an argument to
SortCompare
, do not produce the same result.
The following steps are taken:
Perform an implementation-dependent sequence of calls to the [[Get]] and [[Set]] internal methods of
obj
, to the
DeletePropertyOrThrow
and
HasOwnProperty
abstract operation with
obj
as the first argument, and to
SortCompare
(described below), such that:
The property key argument for each call to [[Get]], [[Set]],
HasOwnProperty
, or
DeletePropertyOrThrow
is the string representation of a nonnegative integer less than
len
The arguments for calls to
SortCompare
are values returned by a previous call to the [[Get]] internal method, unless the properties accessed by those previous calls did not exist according to
HasOwnProperty
. If both perspective arguments to
SortCompare
correspond to non-existent properties, use
+0
instead of calling
SortCompare
. If only the first perspective argument is non-existent use +1. If only the second perspective argument is non-existent use -1.
If
obj
is not sparse then
DeletePropertyOrThrow
must not be called.
If any [[Set]] call returns
false
TypeError
exception is thrown.
If an
abrupt completion
is returned from any of these operations, it is immediately returned as the value of this function.
Return
obj
Unless the sort order is specified above to be implementation-defined, the returned object must have the following two characteristics:
There must be some mathematical permutation π of the nonnegative integers less than
len
, such that for every nonnegative integer
less than
len
, if property
old[
existed, then
new[π(
)]
is exactly the same value as
old[
. But if property
old[
did not exist, then
new[π(
)]
does not exist.
Then for all nonnegative integers
and
, each less than
len
, if
SortCompare
(old[
], old[
]) < 0
(see
SortCompare
below), then
new[π(
)] < new[π(
)]
Here the notation
old[
is used to refer to the hypothetical result of calling the [[Get]] internal method of
obj
with argument
before this function is executed, and the notation
new[
to refer to the hypothetical result of calling the [[Get]] internal method of
obj
with argument
after this function has been executed.

Because non-existent property values always compare greater than

property values, and

undefined
property values always sort to the end of the result, followed by non-existent property values.
Note 2
Method calls performed by the

Note 2
The explicit setting of the
length
property of the result Array in step 19 was necessary in previous editions of ECMAScript to ensure that its length was correct in situations where the trailing elements of the result Array were not present. Setting
length
became unnecessary starting in ES2015 when the result Array was initialized to its proper length rather than an empty Array but is carried forward to preserve backward compatibility.

The
splice

this

Array.prototype.toLocaleString ( [
reserved1
[ ,

An ECMAScript implementation that includes the ECMA-402 Internationalization API must implement the
Array.prototype.toLocaleString
method as specified in the ECMA-402 specification. If an ECMAScript implementation does not include the ECMA-402 API the following specification of the
toLocaleString
method is used.
Note 1
The first edition of ECMA-402 did not include a replacement specification for the
Array.prototype.toLocaleString
method.
The meanings of the optional parameters to this method are defined in the ECMA-402 specification; implementations that do not include ECMA-402 support must not use those parameter positions for anything else.

Note
The own property names of this object are property names that were not included as standard properties of
Array.prototype
prior to the ECMAScript 2015 specification. These names are ignored for
with
statement binding purposes in order to preserve the behaviour of existing code that might use one of these names as a binding in an outer scope that is shadowed by a
with
statement whose binding object is an Array object.
22.1.4
Properties of Array Instances
Array instances are Array exotic objects and have the internal methods specified for such objects. Array instances inherit properties from the Array prototype object.
Array instances have a
length
property, and a set of enumerable properties with array index names.
22.1.4.1
length
The
length
property of an Array instance is a data property whose value is always numerically greater than the name of every configurable own property whose name is an array index.
The
length
property initially has the attributes { [[Writable]]:
true
, [[Enumerable]]:
false
, [[Configurable]]:
false
}.
Note
Reducing the value of the
length
property has the side-effect of deleting own array elements whose array index is between the old and new length values. However, non-configurable properties can not be deleted. Attempting to set the length property of an Array object to a value that is numerically less than or equal to the largest numeric own property name of an existing non-configurable array indexed property of the array will result in the length being set to a numeric value that is one greater than that non-configurable numeric own property name. See
9.4.2.1
22.1.5
Array Iterator Objects
An Array Iterator is an object, that represents a specific iteration over some specific Array instance object. There is not a named constructor for Array Iterator objects. Instead, Array iterator objects are created by calling certain methods of Array instance objects.
22.1.5.1
CreateArrayIterator Abstract Operation
Several methods of Array objects return Iterator objects. The abstract operation CreateArrayIterator with arguments
array

22.1.5.3
Properties of Array Iterator Instances
Array Iterator instances are ordinary objects that inherit properties from the
%ArrayIteratorPrototype%
intrinsic object. Array Iterator instances are initially created with the internal slots listed in
Table 49
Table 49: Internal Slots of Array Iterator Instances
Internal Slot
Description
[[IteratedObject]]
The object whose array elements are being iterated.
[[ArrayIteratorNextIndex]]
The integer index of the next integer index to be examined by this iteration.
[[ArrayIterationKind]]
A String value that identifies what is returned for each element of the iteration. The possible values are:
"key"
"value"
"key+value"
22.2
TypedArray Objects
TypedArray
objects present an array-like view of an underlying binary data buffer (
24.1
). Each element of a
TypedArray
instance has the same underlying binary scalar data type. There is a distinct
TypedArray
constructor, listed in
Table 50
, for each of the nine supported element types. Each constructor in
Table 50
has a corresponding distinct prototype object.

The phrase “the element size in bytes” refers to the value in the Element Size column of the table in the row corresponding to the constructor. The phrase “element Type” refers to the value in the Element Type column for that row.
22.2.1
The %TypedArray% Intrinsic Object
The
%TypedArray%
intrinsic object is a constructor function object that all of the
TypedArray
constructor object inherit from. %TypedArray% and its corresponding prototype object provide common properties that are inherited by all
TypedArray
constructors and their instances. The %TypedArray% intrinsic does not have a global name or appear as a property of the
global object
The %TypedArray% intrinsic function object acts as the abstract superclass of the various
TypedArray
constructors. Because it is an abstract class constructor it will throw an error when invoked. The
TypeArray
constructors do not perform a super call to it.

The
TypedArray
Constructors
Each of the
TypedArray
constructor objects is an intrinsic object that has the structure described below, differing only in the name used as the constructor name instead of
TypedArray
, in
Table 50
The
TypedArray
intrinsic constructor functions are single functions whose behaviour is overloaded based upon the number and types of its arguments. The actual behaviour of a call of
TypedArray
depends upon the number and kind of arguments that are passed to it.
The
TypedArray
constructors are not intended to be called as a function and will throw an exception when called in that manner.
The
TypedArray
constructors are designed to be subclassable. They may be used as the value of an
extends
clause of a class definition. Subclass constructors that intend to inherit the specified
TypedArray
behaviour must include a
super
call to the
TypedArray

Keyed Collection
23.1
Map Objects
Map objects are collections of key/value pairs where both the keys and values may be arbitrary ECMAScript language values. A distinct key value may only occur in one key/value pair within the Map's collection. Distinct key values are discriminated using the
SameValueZero
comparison algorithm.
Map object must be implemented using either hash tables or other mechanisms that, on average, provide access times that are sublinear on the number of elements in the collection. The data structures used in this Map objects specification is only intended to describe the required observable semantics of Map objects. It is not intended to be a viable implementation model.
23.1.1
The Map Constructor
The Map constructor is the
%Map%
intrinsic object and the initial value of the
Map
property of the
global object
. When called as a constructor it creates and initializes a new Map object.
Map
is not intended to be called as a function and will throw an exception when called in that manner.
The
Map
constructor is designed to be subclassable. It may be used as the value in an
extends
clause of a class definition. Subclass constructors that intend to inherit the specified
Map
behaviour must include a
super
call to the
Map
constructor to create and initialize the subclass instance with the internal state necessary to support the
Map.prototype
built-in methods.

Note
callbackfn
should be a function that accepts three arguments.
forEach
calls
callbackfn
once for each key/value pair present in the map object, in key insertion order.
callbackfn
is called only for keys of the map which actually exist; it is not called for keys that have been deleted from the map.
If a
thisArg
parameter is provided, it will be used as the

callbackfn
is called with three arguments: the value of the item, the key of the item, and the Map object being traversed.
forEach
does not directly mutate the object on which it is called but the object may be mutated by the calls to
callbackfn
. Each entry of a map's [[MapData]] is only visited once. New keys added after the call to
forEach
begins are visited. A key will be revisited if it is deleted after it has been visited and then re-added before the
forEach
call completes. Keys that are deleted after the call to
forEach
begins and before being visited are not visited unless the key is added again before the
forEach

Set Objects
Set objects are collections of ECMAScript language values. A distinct value may only occur once as an element of a Set's collection. Distinct values are discriminated using the
SameValueZero
comparison algorithm.
Set objects must be implemented using either hash tables or other mechanisms that, on average, provide access times that are sublinear on the number of elements in the collection. The data structures used in this Set objects specification is only intended to describe the required observable semantics of Set objects. It is not intended to be a viable implementation model.

The Set Constructor
The Set constructor is the
%Set%
intrinsic object and the initial value of the
Set
property of the
global object
. When called as a constructor it creates and initializes a new Set object.
Set
is not intended to be called as a function and will throw an exception when called in that manner.
The
Set
constructor is designed to be subclassable. It may be used as the value in an
extends
clause of a class definition. Subclass constructors that intend to inherit the specified
Set
behaviour must include a
super
call to the
Set
constructor to create and initialize the subclass instance with the internal state necessary to support the
Set.prototype
built-in methods.

Note
callbackfn
should be a function that accepts three arguments.
forEach
calls
callbackfn
once for each value present in the set object, in value insertion order.
callbackfn
is called only for values of the Set which actually exist; it is not called for keys that have been deleted from the set.
If a
thisArg
parameter is provided, it will be used as the
this
value for each invocation of
callbackfn
. If it is not provided,
undefined
is used instead.
callbackfn
is called with three arguments: the first two arguments are a value contained in the Set. The same value is passed for both arguments. The Set object being traversed is passed as the third argument.
The
callbackfn
is called with three arguments to be consistent with the call back functions used by
forEach
methods for Map and Array. For Sets, each item value is considered to be both the key and the value.
forEach
does not directly mutate the object on which it is called but the object may be mutated by the calls to
callbackfn
Each value is normally visited only once. However, a value will be revisited if it is deleted after it has been visited and then re-added before the
forEach
call completes. Values that are deleted after the call to
forEach
begins and before being visited are not visited unless the value is added again before the
forEach
call completes. New values added after the call to
forEach
begins are visited.

WeakMap Objects
WeakMap objects are collections of key/value pairs where the keys are objects and values may be arbitrary ECMAScript language values. A WeakMap may be queried to see if it contains a key/value pair with a specific key, but no mechanism is provided for enumerating the objects it holds as keys. If an object that is being used as the key of a WeakMap key/value pair is only reachable by following a chain of references that start within that WeakMap, then that key/value pair is inaccessible and is automatically removed from the WeakMap. WeakMap implementations must detect and remove such key/value pairs and any associated resources.
An implementation may impose an arbitrarily determined latency between the time a key/value pair of a WeakMap becomes inaccessible and the time when the key/value pair is removed from the WeakMap. If this latency was observable to ECMAScript program, it would be a source of indeterminacy that could impact program execution. For that reason, an ECMAScript implementation must not provide any means to observe a key of a WeakMap that does not require the observer to present the observed key.
WeakMap objects must be implemented using either hash tables or other mechanisms that, on average, provide access times that are sublinear on the number of key/value pairs in the collection. The data structure used in this WeakMap objects specification are only intended to describe the required observable semantics of WeakMap objects. It is not intended to be a viable implementation model.
Note
WeakMap and WeakSets are intended to provide mechanisms for dynamically associating state with an object in a manner that does not “leak” memory resources if, in the absence of the WeakMap or WeakSet, the object otherwise became inaccessible and subject to resource reclamation by the implementation's garbage collection mechanisms. This characteristic can be achieved by using an inverted per-object mapping of weak map instances to keys. Alternatively each weak map may internally store its key to value mappings but this approach requires coordination between the WeakMap or WeakSet implementation and the garbage collector. The following references describe mechanism that may be useful to implementations of WeakMap and WeakSets:

The
WeakMap

Properties of WeakMap Instances
WeakMap instances are ordinary objects that inherit properties from the WeakMap prototype. WeakMap instances also have a [[WeakMapData]] internal slot.
23.4
WeakSet Objects
WeakSet objects are collections of objects. A distinct object may only occur once as an element of a WeakSet's collection. A WeakSet may be queried to see if it contains a specific object, but no mechanism is provided for enumerating the objects it holds. If an object that is contained by a WeakSet is only reachable by following a chain of references that start within that WeakSet, then that object is inaccessible and is automatically removed from the WeakSet. WeakSet implementations must detect and remove such objects and any associated resources.
An implementation may impose an arbitrarily determined latency between the time an object contained in a WeakSet becomes inaccessible and the time when the object is removed from the WeakSet. If this latency was observable to ECMAScript program, it would be a source of indeterminacy that could impact program execution. For that reason, an ECMAScript implementation must not provide any means to determine if a WeakSet contains a particular object that does not require the observer to present the observed object.
WeakSet objects must be implemented using either hash tables or other mechanisms that, on average, provide access times that are sublinear on the number of elements in the collection. The data structure used in this WeakSet objects specification is only intended to describe the required observable semantics of WeakSet objects. It is not intended to be a viable implementation model.

The DataView Constructor
The DataView constructor is the
%DataView%
intrinsic object and the initial value of the
DataView
property of the
global object
. When called as a constructor it creates and initializes a new DataView object.
DataView
is not intended to be called as a function and will throw an exception when called in that manner.
The
DataView
constructor is designed to be subclassable. It may be used as the value of an
extends
clause of a class definition. Subclass constructors that intend to inherit the specified
DataView
behaviour must include a
super
call to the
DataView
constructor to create and initialize subclass instances with the internal state necessary to support the
DataView.prototype
built-in methods.

24.2.5
Properties of DataView Instances
DataView instances are ordinary objects that inherit properties from the DataView prototype object. DataView instances each have [[DataView]], [[ViewedArrayBuffer]], [[ByteLength]], and [[ByteOffset]] internal slots.
Note
The value of the [[DataView]] internal slot is not used within this specification. The simple presence of that internal slot is used within the specification to identify objects created using the
DataView
constructor.
24.3
The JSON Object
The JSON object is the
%JSON%
intrinsic object and the initial value of the
JSON
property of the
global object
. The JSON object is a single ordinary object that contains two functions,
parse
and
stringify
, that are used to parse and construct JSON texts. The JSON Data Interchange Format is defined in ECMA-404. The JSON interchange format used in this specification is exactly that described by ECMA-404.
Conforming implementations of
JSON.parse
and
JSON.stringify
must support the exact interchange format described in the ECMA-404 specification without any deletions or extensions to the format.
The value of the [[Prototype]] internal slot of the JSON object is the intrinsic object
%ObjectPrototype%
. The value of the [[Extensible]] internal slot of the JSON object is set to
true
The JSON object does not have a [[Construct]] internal method; it is not possible to use the JSON object as a constructor with the
new
operator.
The JSON object does not have a [[Call]] internal method; it is not possible to invoke the JSON object as a function.
24.3.1
JSON.parse (
text
[ ,
reviver
] )
The
parse
function parses a JSON text (a JSON-formatted String) and produces an ECMAScript value. The JSON format is a subset of the syntax for ECMAScript literals, Array Initializers and Object Initializers. After parsing, JSON objects are realized as ECMAScript objects. JSON arrays are realized as ECMAScript Array instances. JSON strings, numbers, booleans, and null are realized as ECMAScript Strings, Numbers, Booleans, and
null
The optional
reviver
parameter is a function that takes two parameters,
key
and
value
. It can filter and transform the results. It is called with each of the
key
value
pairs produced by the parse, and its return value is used instead of the original value. If it returns what it received, the structure is not modified. If it returns
undefined
then the property is deleted from the result.
Let
JText
be ?
ToString

Parse

interpreted as UTF-16 encoded Unicode points (
6.1.4
) as a JSON text as specified in ECMA-404. Throw a
SyntaxError
exception if
JText
is not a valid JSON text as defined in that specification.
Let
scriptText
be the result of concatenating
"("
JText
, and
");"
Let
completion
be the result of parsing and evaluating
scriptText
as if it was the source text of an ECMAScript
Script
, but using the alternative definition of
DoubleStringCharacter
provided below. The extended PropertyDefinitionEvaluation semantics defined in
B.3.1
must not be used during the evaluation.

Assert:
status

true
Return ?

Else,
Return

The
length
property of the
parse
function is 2.
JSON allows Unicode code units 0x2028 (LINE SEPARATOR) and 0x2029 (PARAGRAPH SEPARATOR) to directly appear in String literals without using an escape sequence. This is enabled by using the following alternative definition of
DoubleStringCharacter
when parsing
scriptText
in step 4:
DoubleStringCharacter
::
SourceCharacter
but not one of
or
or
U+0000 through U+001F
EscapeSequence
The SV of
DoubleStringCharacter
::
SourceCharacter
but not one of
or
or
U+0000 through U+001F
is the
UTF16Encoding
of the code point value of
SourceCharacter
Note
The syntax of a valid JSON text is a subset of the ECMAScript
PrimaryExpression
syntax. Hence a valid JSON text is also a valid
PrimaryExpression
. Step 2 above verifies that
JText
conforms to that subset. When
scriptText
is parsed and evaluated as a
Script
the result will be either a String, Number, Boolean, or Null primitive value or an Object defined as if by an
ArrayLiteral
or
ObjectLiteral

It is not permitted for a conforming implementation of
JSON.parse
to extend the JSON grammars. If an implementation wishes to support a modified or extended JSON interchange format it must do so by defining a different parse function.
Note
In the case where there are duplicate name Strings within an object, lexically preceding values for the same key shall be overwritten.
24.3.2
JSON.stringify (
value
[ ,
replacer
[ ,
space
] ] )
The
stringify
function returns a String in UTF-16 encoded JSON format representing an ECMAScript value. It can take three parameters. The
value
parameter is an ECMAScript value, which is usually an object or array, although it can also be a String, Boolean, Number or
null
. The optional
replacer
parameter is either a function that alters the way objects and arrays are stringified, or an array of Strings and Numbers that acts as a white list for selecting the object properties that will be stringified. The optional
space
parameter is a String or Number that allows the result to have white space injected into it to improve human readability.
These are the steps in stringifying an object:

The
length
property of the
stringify
function is 3.
Note 1
JSON structures are allowed to be nested to any depth, but they must be acyclic. If
value
is or contains a cyclic structure, then the stringify function must throw a
TypeError
exception. This is an example of a value that cannot be stringified:
a = [];
a[
] = a;
my_text =
JSON
.stringify(a);
// This must throw a TypeError.
Note 2
Symbolic primitive values are rendered as follows:
The
null
value is rendered in JSON text as the String
null
The
undefined
value is not rendered.
The
true
value is rendered in JSON text as the String
true
The
false
value is rendered in JSON text as the String
false
Note 3
String values are wrapped in QUOTATION MARK (
) code units. The code units
and
are escaped with
prefixes. Control characters code units are replaced with escape sequences
\u
HHHH, or with the shorter forms,
\b
(BACKSPACE),
\f
(FORM FEED),
\n
(LINE FEED),
\r
(CARRIAGE RETURN),
\t
(CHARACTER TABULATION).
Note 4
Finite numbers are stringified as if by calling
ToString
number
).
NaN
and Infinity regardless of sign are represented as the String
null
Note 5
Values that do not have a JSON representation (such as
undefined
and functions) do not produce a String. Instead they produce the
undefined
value. In arrays these values are represented as the String
null
. In objects an unrepresentable value causes the property to be excluded from stringification.
Note 6
An object is rendered as U+007B (LEFT CURLY BRACKET) followed by zero or more properties, separated with a U+002C (COMMA), closed with a U+007D (RIGHT CURLY BRACKET). A property is a quoted String representing the key or property name, a U+003A (COLON), and then the stringified property value. An array is rendered as an opening U+005B (LEFT SQUARE BRACKET followed by zero or more values, separated with a U+002C (COMMA), closed with a U+005D (RIGHT SQUARE BRACKET).

Control Abstraction Objects
25.1
Iteration
25.1.1
Common Iteration Interfaces
An interface is a set of property keys whose associated values match a specific specification. Any object that provides all the properties as described by an interface's specification
conforms
to that interface. An interface is not represented by a distinct object. There may be many separately implemented objects that conform to any interface. An individual object may conform to multiple interfaces.
25.1.1.1
The
Iterable
Interface
The
Iterable
interface includes the property described in
Table 53
Table 53:
Iterable
Interface Required Properties
Property
Value
Requirements
@@iterator
A function that returns an
Iterator
object.
The returned object must conform to the
Iterator
interface.
25.1.1.2
The
Iterator
Interface
An object that implements the
Iterator
interface must include the property in
Table 54
. Such objects may also implement the properties in
Table 55
Table 54:
Iterator
Interface Required Properties
Property
Value
Requirements
next
A function that returns an
IteratorResult
object.
The returned object must conform to the
IteratorResult
interface. If a previous call to the
next
method of an
Iterator
has returned an
IteratorResult
object whose
done
property is
true
, then all subsequent calls to the
next
method of that object should also return an
IteratorResult
object whose
done
property is
true
. However, this requirement is not enforced.
Note 1
Arguments may be passed to the next function but their interpretation and validity is dependent upon the target
Iterator
. The for-of statement and other common users of
Iterators
do not pass any arguments, so
Iterator
objects that expect to be used in such a manner must be prepared to deal with being called with no arguments.
Table 55:
Iterator
Interface Optional Properties
Property
Value
Requirements
return
A function that returns an
IteratorResult
object.
The returned object must conform to the
IteratorResult
interface. Invoking this method notifies the
Iterator
object that the caller does not intend to make any more
next
method calls to the
Iterator
. The returned
IteratorResult
object will typically have a
done
property whose value is
true
, and a
value
property with the value passed as the argument of the
return
method. However, this requirement is not enforced.
throw
A function that returns an
IteratorResult
object.
The returned object must conform to the
IteratorResult
interface. Invoking this method notifies the
Iterator
object that the caller has detected an error condition. The argument may be used to identify the error condition and typically will be an exception object. A typical response is to
throw
the value passed as the argument. If the method does not
throw
, the returned
IteratorResult
object will typically have a
done
property whose value is
true
Note 2
Typically callers of these methods should check for their existence before invoking them. Certain ECMAScript language features including
for
of
yield*
, and array destructuring call these methods after performing an existence check. Most ECMAScript library functions that accept
Iterable
objects as arguments also conditionally call them.
25.1.1.3
The IteratorResult Interface
The
IteratorResult
interface includes the properties listed in
Table 56
Table 56:
IteratorResult
Interface Properties
Property
Value
Requirements
done
Either
true
or
false
This is the result status of an
iterator
next
method call. If the end of the iterator was reached
done
is
true
. If the end was not reached
done
is
false
and a value is available. If a
done
property (either own or inherited) does not exist, it is consider to have the value
false
value
Any
ECMAScript language value
If done is
false
, this is the current iteration element value. If done is
true
, this is the return value of the iterator, if it supplied one. If the iterator does not have a return value,
value
is
undefined
. In that case, the
value
property may be absent from the conforming object if it does not inherit an explicit
value
property.
25.1.2
The %IteratorPrototype% Object
The value of the [[Prototype]] internal slot of the
%IteratorPrototype%
object is the intrinsic object
%ObjectPrototype%
. The %IteratorPrototype% object is an ordinary object. The initial value of the [[Extensible]] internal slot of the %IteratorPrototype% object is
true
Note
All objects defined in this specification that implement the Iterator interface also inherit from %IteratorPrototype%. ECMAScript code may also define objects that inherit from %IteratorPrototype%.The %IteratorPrototype% object provides a place where additional methods that are applicable to all iterator objects may be added.
The following expression is one way that ECMAScript code can access the %IteratorPrototype% object:
Object
.getPrototypeOf(
Object
.getPrototypeOf([][
Symbol
.iterator]()))
25.1.2.1
%IteratorPrototype% [ @@iterator ] ( )
The following steps are taken:
Return the
this
value.
The value of the
name
property of this function is
"[Symbol.iterator]"
25.2
GeneratorFunction Objects
Generator Function objects are functions that are usually created by evaluating
GeneratorDeclaration
GeneratorExpression
, and
GeneratorMethod
syntactic productions. They may also be created by calling the
%GeneratorFunction%
intrinsic.
Figure 2 (Informative): Generator Objects Relationships
25.2.1
The GeneratorFunction Constructor
The
GeneratorFunction
constructor is the
%GeneratorFunction%
intrinsic. When
GeneratorFunction
is called as a function rather than as a constructor, it creates and initializes a new GeneratorFunction object. Thus the function call
GeneratorFunction (…)
is equivalent to the object creation expression
new GeneratorFunction (…)
with the same arguments.
GeneratorFunction
is designed to be subclassable. It may be used as the value of an
extends
clause of a class definition. Subclass constructors that intend to inherit the specified
GeneratorFunction
behaviour must include a
super
call to the
GeneratorFunction
constructor to create and initialize subclass instances with the internal slots necessary for built-in GeneratorFunction behaviour. All ECMAScript syntactic forms for defining generator function objects create direct instances of
GeneratorFunction
. There is no syntactic means to create instances of
GeneratorFunction
subclasses.
25.2.1.1
GeneratorFunction (
p1
p2
, … ,
pn
body
The last argument specifies the body (executable code) of a generator function; any preceding arguments specify formal parameters.
When the
GeneratorFunction
function is called with some arguments
p1
p2
, … ,
pn
body
(where
might be 0, that is, there are no “
” arguments, and where
body
might also not be provided), the following steps are taken:
Let

active function object
Let
args
be the
argumentsList
that was passed to this function by [[Call]] or [[Construct]].
Return ?
CreateDynamicFunction
, NewTarget,
"generator"
args
).
Note
See NOTE for
19.2.1.1
25.2.2
Properties of the GeneratorFunction Constructor
The
GeneratorFunction
constructor is a standard built-in function object that inherits from the
Function
constructor. The value of the [[Prototype]] internal slot of the
GeneratorFunction
constructor is the intrinsic object
%Function%
The value of the [[Extensible]] internal slot of the GeneratorFunction constructor is
true
The value of the
name
property of the GeneratorFunction is
"GeneratorFunction"
The
GeneratorFunction
constructor has the following properties:
25.2.2.1
GeneratorFunction.length
This is a data property with a value of 1. This property has the attributes { [[Writable]]:
false
, [[Enumerable]]:
false
, [[Configurable]]:
true
}.
25.2.2.2
GeneratorFunction.prototype
The initial value of
GeneratorFunction.prototype
is the intrinsic object %Generator%.
This property has the attributes { [[Writable]]:
false
, [[Enumerable]]:
false
, [[Configurable]]:
false
}.
25.2.3
Properties of the GeneratorFunction Prototype Object
The GeneratorFunction prototype object is an ordinary object. It is not a function object and does not have an [[ECMAScriptCode]] internal slot or any other of the internal slots listed in
Table 27
or
Table 57
. In addition to being the value of the prototype property of the
%GeneratorFunction%
intrinsic, it is the %Generator% intrinsic (see Figure 2).
The value of the [[Prototype]] internal slot of the GeneratorFunction prototype object is the
%FunctionPrototype%
intrinsic object. The initial value of the [[Extensible]] internal slot of the GeneratorFunction prototype object is
true
25.2.3.1
GeneratorFunction.prototype.constructor
The initial value of
GeneratorFunction.prototype.constructor
is the intrinsic object
%GeneratorFunction%
This property has the attributes { [[Writable]]:
false
, [[Enumerable]]:
false
, [[Configurable]]:
true
}.
25.2.3.2
GeneratorFunction.prototype.prototype
The value of
GeneratorFunction.prototype.prototype
is the
%GeneratorPrototype%
intrinsic object.
This property has the attributes { [[Writable]]:
false
, [[Enumerable]]:
false
, [[Configurable]]:
true
}.
25.2.3.3
GeneratorFunction.prototype [ @@toStringTag ]
The initial value of the @@toStringTag property is the String value
"GeneratorFunction"
This property has the attributes { [[Writable]]:
false
, [[Enumerable]]:
false
, [[Configurable]]:
true
}.
25.2.4
GeneratorFunction Instances
Every GeneratorFunction instance is an ECMAScript function object and has the internal slots listed in
Table 27
. The value of the [[FunctionKind]] internal slot for all such instances is
"generator"
Each GeneratorFunction instance has the following own properties:
25.2.4.1
length
The value of the
length
property is an integer that indicates the typical number of arguments expected by the GeneratorFunction. However, the language permits the function to be invoked with some other number of arguments. The behaviour of a GeneratorFunction when invoked on a number of arguments other than the number specified by its
length
property depends on the function.
This property has the attributes { [[Writable]]:
false
, [[Enumerable]]:
false
, [[Configurable]]:
true
}.
25.2.4.2
name
The specification for the
name
property of Function instances given in
19.2.4.2
also applies to GeneratorFunction instances.
25.2.4.3
prototype
Whenever a GeneratorFunction instance is created another ordinary object is also created and is the initial value of the generator function's
prototype
property. The value of the prototype property is used to initialize the [[Prototype]] internal slot of a newly created Generator object when the generator function object is invoked using [[Call]].
This property has the attributes { [[Writable]]:
true
, [[Enumerable]]:
false
, [[Configurable]]:
false
}.
Note
Unlike function instances, the object that is the value of the a GeneratorFunction's
prototype
property does not have a
constructor
property whose value is the GeneratorFunction instance.
25.3
Generator Objects
A Generator object is an instance of a generator function and conforms to both the
Iterator
and
Iterable
interfaces.
Generator instances directly inherit properties from the object that is the value of the
prototype
property of the Generator function that created the instance. Generator instances indirectly inherit properties from the Generator Prototype intrinsic,
%GeneratorPrototype%
25.3.1
Properties of Generator Prototype
The Generator prototype object is the
%GeneratorPrototype%
intrinsic. It is also the initial value of the
prototype
property of the %Generator% intrinsic (the GeneratorFunction.prototype).
The Generator prototype is an ordinary object. It is not a Generator instance and does not have a [[GeneratorState]] internal slot.
The value of the [[Prototype]] internal slot of the Generator prototype object is the intrinsic object
%IteratorPrototype%
. The initial value of the [[Extensible]] internal slot of the Generator prototype object is
true
All Generator instances indirectly inherit properties of the Generator prototype object.
25.3.1.1
Generator.prototype.constructor
The initial value of
Generator.prototype.constructor
is the intrinsic object %Generator%.
This property has the attributes { [[Writable]]:

25.4
Promise Objects
A Promise is an object that is used as a placeholder for the eventual results of a deferred (and possibly asynchronous) computation.
Any Promise object is in one of three mutually exclusive states:
fulfilled
rejected
, and
pending
A promise
is fulfilled if
p.then(f, r)
will immediately enqueue a Job to call the function
A promise
is rejected if
p.then(f, r)
will immediately enqueue a Job to call the function
A promise is pending if it is neither fulfilled nor rejected.
A promise is said to be
settled
if it is not pending, i.e. if it is either fulfilled or rejected.
A promise is
resolved
if it is settled or if it has been “locked in” to match the state of another promise. Attempting to resolve or reject a resolved promise has no effect. A promise is
unresolved
if it is not resolved. An unresolved promise is always in the pending state. A resolved promise may be pending, fulfilled or rejected.
25.4.1
Promise Abstract Operations
25.4.1.1
PromiseCapability Records
A PromiseCapability is a
Record
value used to encapsulate a promise object along with the functions that are capable of resolving or rejecting that promise object. PromiseCapability records are produced by the

PromiseReaction Records
The PromiseReaction is a
Record
value used to store information about how a promise should react when it becomes resolved or rejected with a given value. PromiseReaction records are created by the
PerformPromiseThen
abstract operation, and are used by a
PromiseReactionJob
PromiseReaction records have the fields listed in
Table 59

Meaning
[[Capabilities]]
A PromiseCapability record
The capabilities of the promise for which this record provides a reaction handler.
[[Handler]]
A function object or a String
The function that should be applied to the incoming value, and whose return value will govern what happens to the derived promise. If [[Handler]] is
"Identity"
it is equivalent to a function that simply returns its first argument. If [[Handler]] is
"Thrower"
it is equivalent to a function that throws its first argument as an exception.

25.4.1.9
HostPromiseRejectionTracker (
promise
operation
HostPromiseRejectionTracker is an implementation-defined abstract operation that allows host environments to track promise rejections.
An implementation of HostPromiseRejectionTracker must complete normally in all cases. The default implementation of HostPromiseRejectionTracker is to do nothing.
Note 1
HostPromiseRejectionTracker is called in two scenarios:
When a promise is rejected without any handlers, it is called with its
operation
argument set to
"reject"
When a handler is added to a rejected promise for the first time, it is called with its
operation
argument set to
"handle"
A typical implementation of HostPromiseRejectionTracker might try to notify developers of unhandled rejections, while also being careful to notify them if such previous notifications are later invalidated by new handlers being attached.
Note 2
If
operation
is
"handle"
, an implementation should not hold a reference to promise in a way that would interfere with garbage collection. An implementation may hold a reference to promise if operation is
"reject"
, since it is expected that rejections will be rare and not on hot code paths.
25.4.2

25.4.3
The Promise Constructor
The Promise constructor is the
%Promise%
intrinsic object and the initial value of the
Promise
property of the
global object
. When called as a constructor it creates and initializes a new Promise object.
Promise
is not intended to be called as a function and will throw an exception when called in that manner.
The
Promise
constructor is designed to be subclassable. It may be used as the value in an
extends
clause of a class definition. Subclass constructors that intend to inherit the specified
Promise
behaviour must include a
super
call to the
Promise
constructor to create and initialize the subclass instance with the internal state necessary to support the
Promise
and
Promise.prototype
built-in methods.
25.4.3.1

, then
Perform ?

Return
promise
Note
The
executor
argument must be a function object. It is called for initiating and reporting completion of the possibly deferred action represented by this Promise object. The executor is called with two arguments:
resolve
and
reject
. These are functions that may be used by the
executor
function to report eventual completion or failure of the deferred computation. Returning from the executor function does not mean that the deferred action has been completed but only that the request to eventually perform the deferred action has been accepted.
The
resolve
function that is passed to an
executor
function accepts a single argument. The
executor
code may eventually call the
resolve
function to indicate that it wishes to resolve the associated Promise object. The argument passed to the
resolve
function represents the eventual value of the deferred action and can be either the actual fulfillment value or another Promise object which will provide the value if it is fulfilled.
The
reject
function that is passed to an
executor
function accepts a single argument. The
executor
code may eventually call the
reject
function to indicate that the associated Promise is rejected and will never be fulfilled. The argument passed to the
reject
function is used as the rejection value of the promise. Typically it will be an
Error
object.
The resolve and reject functions passed to an
executor
function by the Promise constructor have the capability to actually resolve and reject the associated promise. Subclasses may have different constructor behaviour that passes in customized values for resolve and reject.

Description
[[PromiseState]]
A String value that governs how a promise will react to incoming calls to its
then
method. The possible values are:
"pending"
"fulfilled"
, and
"rejected"
[[PromiseResult]]
The value with which the promise has been fulfilled or rejected, if any. Only meaningful if [[PromiseState]] is not
"pending"
[[PromiseFulfillReactions]]
List
of PromiseReaction records to be processed when/if the promise transitions from the
"pending"
state to the
"fulfilled"
state.
[[PromiseRejectReactions]]
List
of PromiseReaction records to be processed when/if the promise transitions from the
"pending"
state to the
"rejected"
state.
[[PromiseIsHandled]]
A boolean indicating whether the promise has ever had a fulfillment or rejection handler; used in unhandled rejection tracking.

Proxy Objects
26.2.1
The Proxy Constructor
The Proxy constructor is the
%Proxy%
intrinsic object and the initial value of the
Proxy
property of the
global object
. When called as a constructor it creates and initializes a new proxy exotic object.
Proxy
is not intended to be called as a function and will throw an exception when called in that manner.

constructor does not have a
prototype
property because proxy exotic objects do not have a [[Prototype]] internal slot that requires initialization.
The
Proxy
constructor has the following properties:
26.2.2.1

).
Return
result
26.2.2.1.1
Proxy Revocation Functions
A Proxy revocation function is an anonymous function that has the ability to invalidate a specific Proxy object.
Each Proxy revocation function has a [[RevocableProxy]] internal slot.
When a Proxy revocation function,
, is called, the following steps are taken:
Let
be the value of
's [[RevocableProxy]] internal slot.

to
null
Set the [[ProxyHandler]] internal slot of
to
null
Return
undefined
The
length
property of a Proxy revocation function is 0.
26.3
Module Namespace Objects
A Module Namespace Object is a module namespace exotic object that provides runtime property-based access to a module's exported bindings. There is no constructor function for Module Namespace Objects. Instead, such an object is created for each module that is imported by an
ImportDeclaration
that includes a
NameSpaceImport
In addition to the properties specified in
9.4.6
each Module Namespace Object has the following own properties:
26.3.1
@@toStringTag
The initial value of the @@toStringTag property is the String value
"Module"
This property has the attributes { [[Writable]]:
false
, [[Enumerable]]:
false
, [[Configurable]]:
true
}.
26.3.2
[ @@iterator ] ( )
When the @@iterator method is called with no arguments, the following steps are taken:
Let
be the
this
value.
If
is not a module namespace exotic object, throw a
TypeError
exception.
Let
exports
be the value of
's [[Exports]] internal slot.
Return !
CreateListIterator
exports
).
The value of the
name
property of this function is

Additional ECMAScript Features for Web Browsers
The ECMAScript language syntax and semantics defined in this annex are required when the ECMAScript host is a web browser. The content of this annex is normative but optional if the ECMAScript host is not a web browser.
Note
This annex describes various legacy features and other characteristics of web browser based ECMAScript implementations. All of the language features and behaviours specified in this annex have one or more undesirable characteristics and in the absence of legacy usage would be removed from this specification. However, the usage of these features by large numbers of existing web pages means that web browsers must continue to support them. The specifications in this annex define the requirements for interoperable implementations of these legacy features.
These features are not considered part of the core ECMAScript language. Programmers should not use or assume the existence of these features and behaviours when writing new ECMAScript code. ECMAScript implementations are discouraged from implementing these features unless the implementation is part of a web browser or is required to run the same legacy ECMAScript code that web browsers encounter.

Regular Expressions Patterns
The syntax of
21.2.1
is modified and extended as follows. These changes introduce ambiguities that are broken by the ordering of grammar productions and by contextual information. When parsing using the following grammar, each alternative is considered only if previous production alternatives do not match.
This alternative pattern grammar and semantics only changes the syntax and semantics of BMP patterns. The following grammar extensions include productions parameterized with the [U] parameter. However, none of these extensions change the syntax of Unicode patterns recognized when parsing with the [U] parameter present on the goal symbol.

function is a property of the
global object
. It computes a new version of a String value in which certain code units have been replaced by a hexadecimal escape sequence.
For those code units being replaced whose value is
0x00FF
or less, a two-digit escape sequence of the form

is used. For those characters being replaced whose code unit value is greater than
0x00FF
, a four-digit escape sequence of the form
%u

Labelled Function Declarations
Prior to ECMAScript 2015, the specification of
LabelledStatement
did not allow for the association of a statement label with a
FunctionDeclaration
. However, a labelled
FunctionDeclaration
was an allowable extension for non-strict code and most browser-hosted ECMAScript implementations supported that extension. In ECMAScript 2015, the grammar productions for
LabelledStatement
permits use of
FunctionDeclaration
as a
LabelledItem
but
13.13.1
includes an Early Error rule that produces a Syntax Error if that occurs. For web browser compatibility, that rule is modified with the addition of the
highlighted
text:
LabelledItem
FunctionDeclaration
It is a Syntax Error if any
strict mode
source code matches this rule.
B.3.3
Block-Level Function Declarations Web Legacy Compatibility Semantics
Prior to ECMAScript 2015, the ECMAScript specification did not define the occurrence of a
FunctionDeclaration
as an element of a
Block
statement's
StatementList
. However, support for that form of
FunctionDeclaration
was an allowable extension and most browser-hosted ECMAScript implementations permitted them. Unfortunately, the semantics of such declarations differ among those implementations. Because of these semantic differences, existing web ECMAScript code that uses
Block
level function declarations is only portable among browser implementation if the usage only depends upon the semantic intersection of all of the browser implementations for such declarations. The following are the use cases that fall within that intersection semantics:
A function is declared and only referenced within a single block
FunctionDeclaration

BindingIdentifier

occurs exactly once within the function code of an enclosing function
and that declaration is nested within a

semantics.
If an ECMAScript implementation has a mechanism for reporting diagnostic warning messages, a warning should be produced when code contains a
FunctionDeclaration
for which these compatibility semantics are applied and introduce observable differences from non-compatibility semantics. For example, if a var binding is not introduced because its introduction would create an
early error
, a warning message should not be produced.

. If any such code is match by one of these rules subsequent processing of that code takes places as if each matching occurrence of
FunctionDeclaration
[?Yield]
was the sole
StatementListItem
of a
BlockStatement
occupying that position in the source code. The semantics of such a synthetic

includes the web legacy compatibility semantics specified in
B.3.3
B.3.5
VariableStatements in Catch Blocks
The content of subclause
13.15.1
is replaced with the following:
Catch
catch
CatchParameter
Block
It is a Syntax Error if BoundNames of
CatchParameter
contains any duplicate elements.
It is a Syntax Error if any element of the BoundNames of
CatchParameter
also occurs in the LexicallyDeclaredNames of
Block
It is a Syntax Error if any element of the BoundNames of
CatchParameter
also occurs in the VarDeclaredNames of
Block
unless
CatchParameter
is
CatchParameter
BindingIdentifier
and that element is only bound by a
VariableStatement
, the
VariableDeclarationList
of a for statement, or the
ForBinding
of a for-in statement.
Note
The
Block
of a
Catch
clause may contain
var
declarations that bind a name that is also bound by the
CatchParameter
. At runtime, such bindings are instantiated in the VariableDeclarationEnvironment. They do not shadow the same-named bindings introduced by the
CatchParameter
and hence the
Initializer
for such
var
declarations will assign to the corresponding catch parameter rather than the
var
binding. The relaxation of the normal static semantic rule does not apply to names only bound by for-of statements.
This modified behaviour also applies to
var
and
function
declarations introduced by
direct eval
calls contained within the
Block
of a
Catch
clause. This change is accomplished by modify the algorithm of
18.2.1.2
as follows:
Step 5.d.ii.2.a.i is replaced by:
If
thisEnvRec
is not the
Environment Record
for a
Catch
clause, throw a
SyntaxError
exception.
If
name
is bound by any syntactic form other than a
FunctionDeclaration
, a
VariableStatement
, the
VariableDeclarationList
of a for statement, or the
ForBinding
of a for-in statement, throw a
SyntaxError
exception.
Step 9.d.ii.4.b.i.i is replaced by:
If
thisEnvRec
is not the
Environment Record
for a
Catch
clause, let
bindingExists
be
true
The Strict Mode of ECMAScript
The strict mode restriction and exceptions
implements
interface
let
package
private
protected
public
static
, and
yield
are reserved words within
strict mode code
. (
11.6.2
).
A conforming implementation, when processing
strict mode code
, must not extend, as described in
B.1.1
, the syntax of
NumericLiteral
to include
LegacyOctalIntegerLiteral
, nor extend the syntax of
DecimalIntegerLiteral
to include
NonOctalDecimalIntegerLiteral
A conforming implementation, when processing
strict mode code
, may not extend the syntax of
EscapeSequence
to include
LegacyOctalEscapeSequence
as described in
B.1.2
Assignment to an undeclared identifier or otherwise unresolvable reference does not create a property in the
global object
. When a simple assignment occurs within
strict mode code
, its
LeftHandSideExpression
must not evaluate to an unresolvable
Reference
. If it does a
ReferenceError
exception is thrown (
6.2.3.2
). The
LeftHandSideExpression
also may not be a reference to a data property with the attribute value {[[Writable]]:
false
}, to an accessor property with the attribute value {[[Set]]:
undefined
}, nor to a non-existent property of an object whose [[Extensible]] internal slot has the value
false
. In these cases a
TypeError
exception is thrown (
12.15
).
The identifier
eval
or
arguments
may not appear as the
LeftHandSideExpression
of an Assignment operator (
12.15
) or of a
UpdateExpression
12.4
) or as the
UnaryExpression
operated upon by a Prefix Increment (
12.4.6
) or a Prefix Decrement (
12.4.7
) operator.
Arguments objects for strict mode functions define non-configurable accessor properties named
"caller"
and
"callee"
which throw a
TypeError
exception on access (
9.2.7
).
Arguments objects for strict mode functions do not dynamically share their array indexed property values with the corresponding formal parameter bindings of their functions. (
9.4.4
).
For strict mode functions, if an arguments object is created the binding of the local identifier
arguments
to the arguments object is immutable and hence may not be the target of an assignment expression. (
9.2.12
).
It is a
SyntaxError
if the
IdentifierName
eval
or the
IdentifierName
arguments
occurs as a
BindingIdentifier
within
strict mode code
12.1.1
).
Strict mode eval code cannot instantiate variables or functions in the variable environment of the caller to eval. Instead, a new variable environment is created and that environment is used for declaration binding instantiation for the eval code (
18.2.1
).
If
this
is evaluated within
strict mode code
, then the
this
value is not coerced to an object. A
this
value of
null
or
undefined
is not converted to the
global object
and primitive values are not converted to wrapper objects. The
this
value passed via a function call (including calls made using
Function.prototype.apply
and
Function.prototype.call
) do not coerce the passed this value to an object (
9.2.1.2
19.2.3.1
19.2.3.3
).
When a
delete
operator occurs within
strict mode code
, a
SyntaxError
is thrown if its
UnaryExpression
is a direct reference to a variable, function argument, or function name (
12.5.3.1
).
When a
delete
operator occurs within
strict mode code
, a
TypeError
is thrown if the property to be deleted has the attribute { [[Configurable]]:
false
} (
12.5.3.2
).
Strict mode code
may not include a
WithStatement
. The occurrence of a
WithStatement
in such a context is a
SyntaxError
13.11.1
).
It is a
SyntaxError
if a
TryStatement
with a
Catch
occurs within
strict mode code
and the
Identifier
of the
Catch
production is
eval
or
arguments
13.15.1
).
It is a
SyntaxError
if the same
BindingIdentifier
appears more than once in the
FormalParameters
of a strict mode function. An attempt to create such a function using a
Function
or
Generator
constructor is a
SyntaxError
14.1.2
19.2.1.1.1
).
An implementation may not extend, beyond that defined in this specification, the meanings within strict mode functions of properties named
caller
or
arguments
of function instances. ECMAScript code may not create or modify properties with these names on function objects that correspond to strict mode functions (
16.2
).
Corrections and Clarifications in ECMAScript 2015 with Possible Compatibility Impact
8.1.1.4.15
8.1.1.4.18
Edition 5 and 5.1 used a property existence test to determine whether a
global object
property corresponding to a new global declaration already existed. ECMAScript 2015 uses an own property existence test. This corresponds to what has been most commonly implemented by web browsers.
9.4.2.1
: The 5
th
Edition moved the capture of the current array length prior to the integer conversion of the array index or new length value. However, the captured length value could become invalid if the conversion process has the side-effect of changing the array length. ECMAScript 2015 specifies that the current array length must be captured after the possible occurrence of such side-effects.
20.3.1.15
: Previous editions permitted the
TimeClip
abstract operation to return either
+0
or
-0
as the representation of a 0
time value
. ECMAScript 2015 specifies that
+0
always returned. This means that for ECMAScript 2015 the
time value
of a Date object is never observably
-0
and methods that return time values never return
-0
20.3.1.16
: If a time zone offset is not present, the local time zone is used. Edition 5.1 incorrectly stated that a missing time zone should be interpreted as
"z"
20.3.4.36
: If the year cannot be represented using the Date Time String Format specified in
20.3.1.16
a RangeError exception is thrown. Previous editions did not specify the behaviour for that case.
20.3.4.41
: Previous editions did not specify the value returned by Date.prototype.toString when
this time value
is
NaN
. ECMAScript 2015 specifies the result to be the String value is
"Invalid Date"
21.2.3.1
21.2.3.2.4
: Any LineTerminator code points in the value of the
source
property of an RegExp instance must be expressed using an escape sequence. Edition 5.1 only required the escaping of
"/"
21.2.5.6
21.2.5.8
: In previous editions, the specifications for
String.prototype.match
and
String.prototype.replace
was incorrect for cases where the pattern argument was a RegExp value whose
global
is flag set. The previous specifications stated that for each attempt to match the pattern, if
lastIndex
did not change it should be incremented by 1. The correct behaviour is that
lastIndex
should be incremented by one only if the pattern matched the empty string.
22.1.3.25
22.1.3.25.1
: Previous editions did not specify how a
NaN
value returned by a
comparefn
was interpreted by
Array.prototype.sort
. ECMAScript 2015 specifies that such as value is treated as if
+0
was returned from the
comparefn
. ECMAScript 2015 also specifies that
ToNumber
is applied to the result returned by a
comparefn
. In previous editions, the effect of a
comparefn
result that is not a Number value was implementation dependent. In practice, implementations call
ToNumber
Additions and Changes That Introduce Incompatibilities with Prior Editions
7.1.3.1
: In ECMAScript 2015,
ToNumber
applied to a String value now recognizes and converts
BinaryIntegerLiteral
and
OctalIntegerLiteral
numeric strings. In previous editions such strings were converted to
NaN
6.2.3
: In ECMAScript 2015, Function calls are not allowed to return a
Reference
value.
11.6
: In ECMAScript 2015, the valid code points for an
IdentifierName
are specified in terms of the Unicode properties “ID_Start” and “ID_Continue”. In previous editions, the valid
IdentifierName
or
Identifier
code points were specified by enumerating various Unicode code point categories.
11.9.1
: In ECMAScript 2015, Automatic Semicolon Insertion adds a semicolon at the end of a do-while statement if the semicolon is missing. This change aligns the specification with the actual behaviour of most existing implementations.
12.2.6.1
: In ECMAScript 2015, it is no longer an
early error
to have duplicate property names in Object Initializers.
12.15.1
: In ECMAScript 2015,
strict mode code
containing an assignment to an immutable binding such as the function name of a
FunctionExpression
does not produce an
early error
. Instead it produces a runtime error.
13.2
: In ECMAScript 2015, a
StatementList
beginning with the token let followed by the input elements
LineTerminator
then
Identifier
is the start of a
LexicalDeclaration
. In previous editions, automatic semicolon insertion would always insert a semicolon before the
Identifier
input element.
13.5
: In ECMAScript 2015, a
StatementListItem
beginning with the token
let
followed by the token
is the start of a
LexicalDeclaration
. In previous editions such a sequence would be the start of an
ExpressionStatement
13.6.7
: In ECMAScript 2015, the normal completion value of an
IfStatement
is never the value
empty
. If no
Statement
part is evaluated or if the evaluated
Statement
part produces a normal completion whose value is
empty
, the completion value of the
IfStatement
is
undefined
13.7
: In ECMAScript 2015, if the
token of a for statement is immediately followed by the token sequence
let [
then the
let
is treated as the start of a
LexicalDeclaration
. In previous editions such a token sequence would be the start of an
Expression
13.7
: In ECMAScript 2015, if the ( token of a for-in statement is immediately followed by the token sequence
let [
then the
let
is treated as the start of a
ForDeclaration
. In previous editions such a token sequence would be the start of an
LeftHandSideExpression
13.7
: Prior to ECMAScript 2015, an initialization expression could appear as part of the
VariableDeclaration
that precedes the
in
keyword. The value of that expression was always discarded. In ECMAScript 2015, the
ForBinding
in that same position does not allow the occurrence of such an initializer.
13.7
: In ECMAScript 2015, the completion value of an
IterationStatement
is never the value
empty
. If the
Statement
part of an
IterationStatement
is not evaluated or if the final evaluation of the
Statement
part produces a completion whose value is
empty
, the completion value of the
IterationStatement
is
undefined
13.11.7
: In ECMAScript 2015, the normal completion value of a
WithStatement
is never the value
empty
. If evaluation of the
Statement
part of a
WithStatement
produces a normal completion whose value is
empty
, the completion value of the
WithStatement
is
undefined
13.12.11
: In ECMAScript 2015, the completion value of a
SwitchStatement
is never the value
empty
. If the
CaseBlock
part of a
SwitchStatement
produces a completion whose value is
empty
, the completion value of the
SwitchStatement
is
undefined
13.15
: In ECMAScript 2015, it is an
early error
for a
Catch
clause to contain a
var
declaration for the same
Identifier
that appears as the
Catch
clause parameter. In previous editions, such a variable declaration would be instantiated in the enclosing variable environment but the declaration's
Initializer
value would be assigned to the
Catch
parameter.
13.15
18.2.1.2
: In ECMAScript 2015, a runtime
SyntaxError
is thrown if a
Catch
clause evaluates a non-strict direct
eval
whose eval code includes a
var
or
FunctionDeclaration
declaration that binds the same
Identifier
that appears as the
Catch
clause parameter.
13.15.8
: In ECMAScript 2015, the completion value of a
TryStatement
is never the value
empty
. If the
Block
part of a
TryStatement
evaluates to a normal completion whose value is
empty
, the completion value of the
TryStatement
is
undefined
. If the
Block
part of a
TryStatement
evaluates to a throw completion and it has a
Catch
part that evaluates to a normal completion whose value is
empty
, the completion value of the
TryStatement
is
undefined
if there is no
Finally
clause or if its
Finally
clause evalulates to an
empty
normal completion.
14.3.9
In ECMAScript 2015, the function objects that are created as the values of the [[Get]] or [[Set]] attribute of accessor properties in an
ObjectLiteral
are not constructor functions and they do not have a
prototype
own property. In the previous edition, they were constructors and had a
prototype
property.
19.1.2.5
: In ECMAScript 2015, if the argument to
Object.freeze
is not an object it is treated as if it was a non-extensible ordinary object with no own properties. In the previous edition, a non-object argument always causes a
TypeError
to be thrown.
19.1.2.6
: In ECMAScript 2015, if the argument to
Object.getOwnPropertyDescriptor
is not an object an attempt is made to coerce the argument using
ToObject
. If the coercion is successful the result is used in place of the original argument value. In the previous edition, a non-object argument always causes a
TypeError
to be thrown.
19.1.2.7
: In ECMAScript 2015, if the argument to
Object.getOwnPropertyNames
is not an object an attempt is made to coerce the argument using
ToObject
. If the coercion is successful the result is used in place of the original argument value. In the previous edition, a non-object argument always causes a
TypeError
to be thrown.
19.1.2.9
: In ECMAScript 2015, if the argument to
Object.getPrototypeOf
is not an object an attempt is made to coerce the argument using
ToObject
. If the coercion is successful the result is used in place of the original argument value. In the previous edition, a non-object argument always causes a
TypeError
to be thrown.
19.1.2.11
: In ECMAScript 2015, if the argument to
Object.isExtensible
is not an object it is treated as if it was a non-extensible ordinary object with no own properties. In the previous edition, a non-object argument always causes a
TypeError
to be thrown.
19.1.2.12
: In ECMAScript 2015, if the argument to
Object.isFrozen
is not an object it is treated as if it was a non-extensible ordinary object with no own properties. In the previous edition, a non-object argument always causes a
TypeError
to be thrown.
19.1.2.13
: In ECMAScript 2015, if the argument to
Object.isSealed
is not an object it is treated as if it was a non-extensible ordinary object with no own properties. In the previous edition, a non-object argument always causes a
TypeError
to be thrown.
19.1.2.14
: In ECMAScript 2015, if the argument to
Object.keys
is not an object an attempt is made to coerce the argument using
ToObject
. If the coercion is successful the result is used in place of the original argument value. In the previous edition, a non-object argument always causes a
TypeError
to be thrown.
19.1.2.15
: In ECMAScript 2015, if the argument to
Object.preventExtensions
is not an object it is treated as if it was a non-extensible ordinary object with no own properties. In the previous edition, a non-object argument always causes a
TypeError
to be thrown.
19.1.2.17
: In ECMAScript 2015, if the argument to
Object.seal
is not an object it is treated as if it was a non-extensible ordinary object with no own properties. In the previous edition, a non-object argument always causes a
TypeError
to be thrown.
19.2.3.2
: In ECMAScript 2015, the [[Prototype]] internal slot of a
bound function
is set to the [[GetPrototypeOf]] value of its target function. In the previous edition, [[Prototype]] was always set to
%FunctionPrototype%
19.2.4.1
: In ECMAScript 2015, the
length
property of function instances is configurable. In previous editions it was non-configurable.
19.5.6.2
: In ECMAScript 2015, the [[Prototype]] internal slot of a
NativeError
constructor is the Error constructor. In previous editions it was the Function prototype object.
20.3.4
In ECMAScript 2015, the Date prototype object is not a Date instance. In previous editions it was a Date instance whose TimeValue was
NaN
21.1.3.10
In ECMAScript 2015, the
String.prototype.localeCompare
function must treat Strings that are canonically equivalent according to the Unicode standard as being identical. In previous editions implementations were permitted to ignore canonical equivalence and could instead use a bit-wise comparison.
21.1.3.22
and
21.1.3.24
In ECMAScript 2015, lowercase/upper conversion processing operates on code points. In previous editions such the conversion processing was only applied to individual code units. The only affected code points are those in the Deseret block of Unicode
21.1.3.25
In ECMAScript 2015, the
String.prototype.trim
method is defined to recognize white space code points that may exists outside of the Unicode BMP. However, as of Unicode 7 no such code points are defined. In previous editions such code points would not have been recognized as white space.
21.2.3.1
In ECMAScript 2015, If the
pattern
argument is a RegExp instance and the
flags
argument is not
undefined
, a new RegExp instance is created just like
pattern
except that
pattern
's flags are replaced by the argument
flags
. In previous editions a
TypeError
exception was thrown when
pattern
was a RegExp instance and
flags
was not
undefined
21.2.5
In ECMAScript 2015, the RegExp prototype object is not a RegExp instance. In previous editions it was a RegExp instance whose pattern is the empty string.
21.2.5
In ECMAScript 2015,
source
global
ignoreCase
, and
multiline
are accessor properties defined on the RegExp prototype object. In previous editions they were data properties defined on RegExp instances
