# Shorthand variable assignment:

// A)
// if all variables are being assigned equal values:
// instead of this
var a = 1;
var b = 1;
var c = 1;

// do this
var a = b = c = 1;
// first c is set to 1
// then b is set to c as c = 1 and same goes with a

/***************************************************************************************************************************************/

// How ever this is not a recommended way to assign variables. Because we haven't declared variables b and c because of which they won't be locally scoped to the current block of code.
// Both will be globally scoped and end up polluting the global namespace.

// B)
// instead of
var d = 2;
var e = 5;
var f = 8;

// do this
var d = 2, e = 5, f = 8; // OR
var d = 2,
    e = 5,
    f = 8;

// all three variables i.e d, e, and f are locally scoped.
