JavaScript has special identifiers that, while not reserved, still should not be used as identifiers. They include:
|
|
|
|
|
|
* ``++eval++`` - evaluates a string as JavaScript code
|
|
* ``++arguments++`` - used to access function arguments through indexed properties.
|
|
* ``++undefined++`` - returned for values and properties that have not yet been assigned
|
|
* ``++NaN++`` - Not a Number; returned when math functions fail.
|
|
* ``++Infinity++`` - when a number exceeds the upper limit of the floating point numbers
|
|
|
|
These words should not be bound or assigned, because doing so would overwrite the original definitions of these identifiers. What's more, assigning or binding some of these names will generate an error in JavaScript strict mode code.

== Noncompliant Code Example
|
|
|
|
----
|
|
eval = 17; // Noncompliant
|
|
arguments++; // Noncompliant
|
|
++eval; // Noncompliant
|
|
var obj = { set p(arguments) { } }; // Noncompliant
|
|
var eval; // Noncompliant
|
|
try { } catch (arguments) { } // Noncompliant
|
|
function x(eval) { } // Noncompliant
|
|
function arguments() { } // Noncompliant
|
|
var y = function eval() { }; // Noncompliant
|
|
var f = new Function("arguments", "return 17;"); // Noncompliant
|
|
|
|
function fun() {
|
|
if (arguments.length == 0) { // Compliant
|
|
// do something
|
|
}
|
|
}

== Compliant Solution

----
|

result = 17;

args++;
|

++result;

var obj = { set p(arg) { } };

var result;
|

try { } catch (args) { }
|
|
function x(arg) { }
|
|
function args() { }
|
|
var y = function fun() { };
|
|
var f = new Function("args", "return 17;");
|

|
|
function fun() {
|
|
if (arguments.length == 0) {
|

// do something
