call()and apply() difference

 call() and apply() serve the exact same purpose. The only difference between how they work is that call() expects all parameters to be passed in individually, whereas apply() expects an array of all of our parameters.


 Example:

var pokemon = {
firstname: 'Pika',
lastname: 'Chu ',
getPokeName: function() {
var fullname = this.firstname + ' ' + this.lastname;
return fullname;
}
};
var pokemonName = function(snack, hobby) {
console.log(this.getPokeName() + ' loves ' + snack + ' and ' + hobby);
};
pokemonName.call(pokemon,'sushi', 'algorithms'); // Pika Chu loves sushi and algorithms
pokemonName.apply(pokemon,['sushi', 'algorithms']); // Pika Chu loves sushi and algorithms
