single physical machine).

Taking a developer’s perspective, do you think that that JavaScript is
easy to learn and use?
One of the reasons JavaScript has the word "script" in it is that as a
programming language, the vocabulary of the core language is compact
compared to full-fledged programming languages. If you already program
in Java or C, you actually have to unlearn some concepts that had been
beaten into you. For example, JavaScript is a loosely typed language,
which means that a variable doesn't care if it's holding a string, a
number, or a reference to an object; the same variable can even change
what type of data it holds while a script runs.
The other part of JavaScript implementation in browsers that makes it
easier to learn is that most of the objects you script are pre-defined
for the author, and they largely represent physical things you can see
on a page: a text box, an image, and so on. It's easier to say, "OK,
these are the things I'm working with and I'll use scripting to make
them do such and such," instead of having to dream up the user
interface, conceive of and code objects, and handle the interaction
between objects and users. With scripting, you tend to write a _lot_
less code.
What Web sites do you feel use JavaScript most effectively (i.e.,
best-in-class examples)? The worst?
The best sites are the ones that use JavaScript so transparently, that
I'm not aware that there is any scripting on the page. The worst sites
are those that try to impress me with how much scripting is on the page.
How about 2+5+"8"?
Since 2 and 5 are integers, this is number arithmetic, since 8 is a
string, it’s concatenation, so 78 is the result.
What is the difference between SessionState and ViewState?
ViewState is specific to a page in a session. Session state refers to
user specific data that can be accessed across all pages in the web
application.
What does the EnableViewStateMac setting in an aspx page do?
Setting EnableViewStateMac=true is a security measure that allows
ASP.NET to ensure that the viewstate for a page has not been tampered
with. If on Postback, the ASP.NET framework detects that there has been
a change in the value of viewstate that was sent to the browser, it
raises an error - Validation of viewstate MAC failed.
Use <%@ Page EnableViewStateMac="true"%> to set it to true (the default
value, if this attribute is not specified is also true) in an aspx page.
