So, I was wondering about the return… method(?). if I have 2 parameters on a function, and use a return method within the function… which parameter does it go to if I return just 1 parameter? function myFunc(a,b) { return(2); } Say, I wanted to change the “a” parameter to 2, while keep “b” whatever it might have become. Also, can I return the value of “a” by myFunc.a? I understand I can test this on my own, and will as soon as I get the chance, but as for now, if someone could kindly take a moment to answer, that’d be great ^^ Also, I would like to create a table via JS into a \
