varargs in javascript

I'm learning Javascript in my spare time. So when I learnt the possibility of using varargs in Javascript, I wanted to share it. Here we go;

You probably know how functions are defined in Javascript:

view source

print?

1	function transform(){

2	// write stuff to html below

3	document.write("transform function initiated");

4

}

It is, of course, possible to define functions with arguments such as;

view source

print?

1	function transformWithMessage(message){

2	document.write("transform function initiated: "+message);

3

}

Now, I'll show functions with indefinite number of arguments;

view source

print?

1	// defined similarly to a function with no argument

2	function transform(){

3	document.write("transform function initiated: ");

4	// arguments array holds any argument sent to transform() function

5	for(var i=0; i< arguments.length; i++)

6	document.write(arguments[i]+" ");

7

}

A call such as transform("first lock engaged", "second lock engaged") will result in an output such as transform function initiated: first lock engaged second lock engaged . Similarly, a call such as transform("first", "second", "third") will result in an output such as transform function initiated: first second third .
