If I run   Array.apply(null, new Array(1000000)).map(Math.random);   on Chrome 33, I get     RangeError: Maximum call stack size exceeded   Why?...

The following code has a new callstack when the debugger fires in d (jsfiddle here)  function c() {     setTimeout( d, 1000 ); }  function d() {     debugger;    }  c();   If we modify the code to use setTimeout( d(), 1000 ); which has brackets (pare...

My aim is to develop a java script profiler for nodejs . The requirements are as under :   Should be able to fetch call stack . Get Time stamp information. Get number of iterations.    My chief concern is that i should not modify the source file ( .j...

So, I am programming a 2d Javascript physics simulation. The performance is good, but I'm going through making optimizations to make it better. So, because the program works with a lot of physical geometry, I make several Pythagorean Theorem calc...

The problem is not getting the callstack in general, which can be done as described here: http://eriwen.com/javascript/js-stack-trace/ but rather in accessing the callstack that triggered the event, from the handler of the event.  In particular I'...

I am looking at the Wikipedia page on Call Stack, and trying to grok this image:    This is as far as I get lol:  const memory = [] memory[0] = 3 // top of stack pointer memory[1] = 4 // stackframe pointer memory[2] = 1000 // max call stack size  mem...

this my code calling my animateRotate function. Internally it basically just calls $.animate. But have a look yourself:  (function () {     function rotate() {         $motorblades.animateRotate(0, 360, 3000, { x: 117, y: 117 }, "linear", fun...
