I Think I Know What You’re Talking About But I’m Not Sure
summary
Uses Google, Wikipedia, MDN and the Online Etymology Dictionary to pin down concrete claims: parameter = formal, argument = actual with the code example mapping function definition to call; lexical scope resolves names by enclosing text blocks while dynamic scope walks the call stack; recursion requires a base case and reduction rule (factorial as an example); instantiation traces to predicate logic and shows ES6 new Class() instantiation; notes jQuery Ajax’s async:false oddity and treats the DOM as MDN’s manipulable tree.
