Introduction
This Ecma Standard defines the ECMAScript 2026 Language. It is the seventeenth edition of the ECMAScript Language Specification. Since publication of the first edition in 1997, ECMAScript has grown to be one of the world's most widely used general-purpose programming languages. It is best known as the language embedded in web browsers but has also been widely adopted for server and embedded applications.
ECMAScript is based on several originating technologies, the most well-known being JavaScript (Netscape) and JScript (Microsoft). The language was invented by Brendan Eich at Netscape and first appeared in that company's Navigator 2.0 browser. It has appeared in all subsequent browsers from Netscape and in all browsers from Microsoft starting with Internet Explorer 3.0.
The development of the ECMAScript Language Specification started in November 1996. The first edition of this Ecma Standard was adopted by the Ecma General Assembly of June 1997.
That Ecma Standard was submitted to ISO/IEC JTC 1 for adoption under the fast-track procedure, and approved as international standard ISO/IEC 16262, in April 1998. The Ecma General Assembly of June 1998 approved the second edition of ECMA-262 to keep it fully aligned with ISO/IEC 16262. Changes between the first and the second edition are editorial in nature.
The third edition of the Standard introduced powerful regular expressions, better string handling, new control statements, try/catch exception handling, tighter definition of errors, formatting for numeric output and minor changes in anticipation of future language growth. The third edition of the ECMAScript standard was adopted by the Ecma General Assembly of December 1999 and published as ISO/IEC 16262:2002 in June 2002.
After publication of the third edition, ECMAScript achieved massive adoption in conjunction with the World Wide Web where it has become the programming language that is supported by essentially all web browsers. Significant work was done to develop a fourth edition of ECMAScript. However, that work was not completed and not published as the fourth edition of ECMAScript but some of it was incorporated into the development of the sixth edition.
The fifth edition of ECMAScript (published as ECMA-262 5th edition) codified de facto interpretations of the language specification that have become common among browser implementations and added support for new features that had emerged since the publication of the third edition. Such features include
The fifth edition was submitted to ISO/IEC JTC 1 for adoption under the fast-track procedure, and approved as international standard ISO/IEC 16262:2011. Edition 5.1 of the ECMAScript Standard incorporated minor corrections and is the same text as ISO/IEC 16262:2011. The 5.1 Edition was adopted by the Ecma General Assembly of June 2011.
Focused development of the sixth edition started in 2009, as the fifth edition was being prepared for publication. However, this was preceded by significant experimentation and language enhancement design efforts dating to the publication of the third edition in 1999. In a very real sense, the completion of the sixth edition is the culmination of a fifteen year effort. The goals for this edition included providing better support for large applications, library creation, and for use of ECMAScript as a compilation target for other languages. Some of its major enhancements included modules, class declarations, lexical block scoping,
ECMAScript 2016 was the first ECMAScript edition released under Ecma TC39's new yearly release cadence and open development process. A plain-text source document was built from the ECMAScript 2015 source document to serve as the base for further development entirely on GitHub. Over the year of this standard's development, hundreds of pull requests and issues were filed representing thousands of bug fixes, editorial fixes and other improvements. Additionally, numerous software tools were developed to aid in this effort including Ecmarkup, Ecmarkdown, and Grammarkdown. ES2016 also included support for a new exponentiation operator and adds a new method to Array.prototype called includes.
ECMAScript 2017 introduced Async Functions, Shared Memory, and Atomics along with smaller language and library enhancements, bug fixes, and editorial updates. Async functions improve the asynchronous programming experience by providing syntax for promise-returning functions. Shared Memory and Atomics introduce a new Object.values, Object.entries, and Object.getOwnPropertyDescriptors.
ECMAScript 2018 introduced support for asynchronous iteration via the dotAll flag, named capture groups, Unicode property escapes, and look-behind assertions. Lastly it included object rest and spread properties.
ECMAScript 2019 introduced a few new built-in functions: flat and flatMap on Array.prototype for flattening arrays, Object.fromEntries for directly turning the return value of Object.entries into a new Object, and trimStart and trimEnd on String.prototype as better-named alternatives to the widely implemented but non-standard String.prototype.trimLeft and trimRight built-ins. In addition, it included a few minor updates to syntax and semantics. Updated syntax included optional catch binding parameters and allowing U+2028 (LINE SEPARATOR) and U+2029 (PARAGRAPH SEPARATOR) in string literals to align with JSON. Other updates included requiring that Array.prototype.sort be a stable sort, requiring that JSON.stringify return well-formed UTF-8 regardless of input, and clarifying Function.prototype.toString by requiring that it either return the corresponding original source text or a standard placeholder.
ECMAScript 2020, the 11th edition, introduced the matchAll method for Strings, to produce an import(), a syntax to asynchronously import Modules with a dynamic specifier; BigInt, a new number primitive for working with arbitrary precision Promise.allSettled, a new Promise combinator that does not short-circuit; globalThis, a universal way to access the global this value; dedicated export * as ns from 'module' syntax for use within modules; increased standardization of for-in enumeration order; import.meta, a
ECMAScript 2021, the 12th edition, introduced the replaceAll method for Strings; Promise.any, a Promise combinator that short-circuits when an input value is fulfilled; AggregateError, a new Error type to represent multiple errors at once; logical assignment operators (??=, &&=, ||=); WeakRef, for referring to a target object without preserving it from garbage collection, and FinalizationRegistry, to manage registration and unregistration of cleanup operations performed when target objects are garbage collected; separators for numeric literals (1_000); and Array.prototype.sort was made more precise, reducing the amount of cases that result in an
ECMAScript 2022, the 13th edition, introduced top-level await, allowing the #x in obj syntax, to test for presence of private fields on objects; regular expression match indices via the /d flag, which provides start and end indices for matched substrings; the cause property on Error objects, which can be used to record a causation chain in errors; the at method for Strings, Arrays, and Object.hasOwn, a convenient alternative to Object.prototype.hasOwnProperty.
ECMAScript 2023, the 14th edition, introduced the toSorted, toReversed, with, findLast, and findLastIndex methods on Array.prototype and TypedArray.prototype, as well as the toSpliced method on Array.prototype; added support for #! comments at the beginning of files to better facilitate executable ECMAScript files; and allowed the use of most Symbols as keys in weak collections.
ECMAScript 2024, the 15th edition, added facilities for resizing and transferring ArrayBuffers and SharedArrayBuffers; added a new RegExp /v flag for creating RegExps with more advanced features for working with sets of strings; and introduced the Promise.withResolvers convenience method for constructing Promises, the Object.groupBy and Map.groupBy methods for aggregating data, the Atomics.waitAsync method for asynchronously waiting for a change to shared memory, and the String.prototype.isWellFormed and String.prototype.toWellFormed methods for checking and ensuring that strings contain only well-formed Unicode.
ECMAScript 2025, the 16th edition, added a new Iterator global with associated static and prototype methods for working with Set.prototype for performing common operations on Sets; added support for importing JSON modules as well as syntax for declaring attributes of imported modules; added the RegExp.escape method for escaping a string to be safely used in a regular expression; added syntax for enabling and disabling modifier flags inline within regular expressions; added the Promise.try method for calling functions which may or may not return a Promise and ensuring the result is always a Promise; and added a new Float16Array DataView.prototype.getFloat16, DataView.prototype.setFloat16, and Math.f16round methods.
Dozens of individuals representing many organizations have made very significant contributions within Ecma TC39 to the development of this edition and to the prior editions. In addition, a vibrant community has emerged supporting TC39's ECMAScript efforts. This community has reviewed numerous drafts, filed thousands of bug reports, performed implementation experiments, contributed test suites, and educated the world-wide developer community about ECMAScript. Unfortunately, it is impossible to identify and acknowledge every person and organization who has contributed to this effort.

ECMAScript was originally designed to be used as a scripting language, but has become widely used as a general-purpose programming language. A scripting language is a programming language that is used to manipulate, customize, and automate the facilities of an existing system. In such systems, useful functionality is already available through a user interface, and the scripting language is a mechanism for exposing that functionality to program control. In this way, the existing system is said to provide a

ECMAScript usage has moved beyond simple scripting and it is now used for the full spectrum of programming tasks in many different environments and scales. As the usage of ECMAScript has expanded, so have the features and facilities it provides. ECMAScript is now a fully featured general-purpose programming language.

4.3 ECMAScript Overview
The following is an informal overview of ECMAScript—not all parts of the language are described. This overview is not part of the standard proper.
ECMAScript is object-based: basic language and
ECMAScript defines a collection of built-in objects that round out the definition of ECMAScript entities. These built-in objects include the Object, Function, Boolean, Symbol, and various Error objects; objects that represent and manipulate numeric values including Math, Number, and Date; the text processing objects String and RegExp; objects that are indexed collections of values including Array and nine different kinds of Typed Arrays whose elements all have a specific numeric data representation; keyed collections including Map and Set objects; objects supporting structured data including the JSON object, ArrayBuffer, SharedArrayBuffer, and DataView; objects supporting control abstractions including generator functions and Promise objects; and reflection objects including Proxy and Reflect.
ECMAScript also defines a set of built-in operators. ECMAScript operators include various unary operations, multiplicative operators, additive operators, bitwise shift operators, relational operators, equality operators, binary bitwise operators, binary logical operators, assignment operators, and the comma operator.
Large ECMAScript programs are supported by modules which allow a program to be divided into multiple sequences of statements and declarations. Each module explicitly identifies declarations it uses that need to be provided by other modules and which of its declarations are available for use by other modules.
ECMAScript syntax intentionally resembles Java syntax. ECMAScript syntax is relaxed to enable it to serve as an easy-to-use scripting language. For example, a variable is not required to have its type declared nor are types associated with properties, and defined functions are not required to have their declarations appear textually before calls to them.
4.3.1 Objects
Even though ECMAScript includes syntax for class definitions, ECMAScript objects are not fundamentally class-based such as those in C++, Smalltalk, or Java. Instead objects may be created in various ways including via a literal notation or via new Date(2009, 11) creates a new Date object. Invoking a Date() produces a string representation of the current date and time rather than an object.
Every object created by a
In a class-based object-oriented language, in general, state is carried by instances, methods are carried by classes, and inheritance is only of structure and behaviour. In ECMAScript, the state and methods are carried by objects, while structure, behaviour, and state are all inherited.
All objects that do not directly contain a particular property that their prototype contains share that property and its value. Figure 1 illustrates this:
CF is a new expressions: cf1, cf2, cf3, cf4, and cf5. Each of these objects contains properties named
Unlike most class-based object languages, properties can be added to objects dynamically by assigning values to them. That is,
Although ECMAScript objects are not inherently class-based, it is often convenient to define class-like abstractions based upon a common pattern of
4.3.2 The Strict Variant of ECMAScript
The ECMAScript Language recognizes the possibility that some users of the language may wish to restrict their usage of some features available in the language. They might do so in the interests of security, to avoid what they consider to be error-prone features, to get enhanced error checking, or for other reasons of their choosing. In support of this possibility, ECMAScript defines a strict variant of the language. The strict variant of the language excludes some specific syntactic and semantic features of the regular ECMAScript language and modifies the detailed semantics of some features. The strict variant also specifies additional error conditions that must be reported by throwing error exceptions in situations that are not specified as errors by the non-strict form of the language.
The strict variant of ECMAScript is commonly referred to as the strict mode of the language. Strict mode selection and use of the strict mode syntax and semantics of ECMAScript is explicitly made at the level of individual
In order to conform to this specification, an ECMAScript implementation must implement both the full unrestricted ECMAScript language and the strict variant of the ECMAScript language as defined by this specification. In addition, an implementation must support the combination of unrestricted and strict mode source text units into a single composite program.

5 Notational Conventions
5.1 Syntactic and Lexical Grammars
5.1.1 Context-Free Grammars
A context-free grammar consists of a number of productions. Each production has an abstract symbol called a nonterminal as its left-hand side, and a sequence of zero or more nonterminal and terminal symbols as its right-hand side. For each grammar, the terminal symbols are drawn from a specified alphabet.
A chain production is a production that has exactly one nonterminal symbol on its right-hand side along with zero or more terminal symbols.
Starting from a sentence consisting of a single distinguished nonterminal, called the goal symbol, a given context-free grammar specifies a language, namely, the (perhaps infinite) set of possible sequences of terminal symbols that can result from repeatedly replacing any nonterminal in the sequence with a right-hand side of a production for which the nonterminal is the left-hand side.
5.1.2 The Lexical and RegExp Grammars
A lexical grammar for ECMAScript is given in clause
Input elements other than white space and comments form the terminal symbols for the syntactic grammar for ECMAScript and are called ECMAScript tokens. These tokens are the /*…*/ regardless of whether it spans more than one line) is likewise simply discarded if it contains no line terminator; but if a
A RegExp grammar for ECMAScript is given in
Productions of the lexical and RegExp grammars are distinguished by having two colons “::” as separating punctuation. The lexical and RegExp grammars share some productions.
5.1.3 The Numeric String Grammar
A numeric string grammar appears in
Productions of the numeric string grammar are distinguished by having three colons “:::” as punctuation, and are never used for parsing source text.
5.1.4 The Syntactic Grammar
The syntactic grammar for ECMAScript is given in clauses
When a stream of code points is to be parsed as an ECMAScript
When a parse is successful, it constructs a parse tree, a rooted tree structure in which each node is a Parse Node. Each Parse Node is an instance of a symbol in the grammar; it represents a span of the source text that can be derived from that symbol. The root node of the parse tree, representing the whole of the source text, is an instance of the parse's
New Parse Nodes are instantiated for each invocation of the parser and never reused between parses even of identical source text. Parse Nodes are considered the same Parse Node if and only if they represent the same span of source text, are instances of the same grammar symbol, and resulted from the same parser invocation.
Parsing the same String multiple times will lead to different Parse Nodes. For example, consider:
let str = "1 + 1;";
eval(str);
eval(str);Each call to eval converts the value of str into
Productions of the syntactic grammar are distinguished by having just one colon “:” as punctuation.
The syntactic grammar as presented in clauses
In certain cases, in order to avoid ambiguities, the syntactic grammar uses generalized productions that permit token sequences that do not form a valid ECMAScript
- The sequence of tokens originally matched by P is parsed again using N as the
goal symbol . If N takes grammatical parameters, then they are set to the same values used when P was originally parsed. - If the sequence of tokens can be parsed as a single instance of N, with no tokens left over, then:
- We refer to that instance of N (a Parse Node, unique for a given P) as "the N that is covered by P".
- All Early Error rules for N and its derived productions also apply to the N that is covered by P.
- Otherwise (if the parse fails), it is an early Syntax Error.
5.1.5 Grammar Notation
5.1.5.1 Terminal Symbols
In the ECMAScript grammars, some terminal symbols are shown in fixed-width font. These are to appear in a source text exactly as written. All terminal symbol code points specified in this way are to be understood as the appropriate Unicode code points from the Basic Latin block, as opposed to any similar-looking code points from other Unicode ranges. A code point in a terminal symbol cannot be expressed by a \
In grammars whose terminal symbols are individual Unicode code points (i.e., the lexical, RegExp, and numeric string grammars), a contiguous run of multiple fixed-width code points appearing in a production is a simple shorthand for the same sequence of code points, written as standalone terminal symbols.
For example, the production:
is a shorthand for:
In contrast, in the syntactic grammar, a contiguous run of fixed-width code points is a single terminal symbol.
Terminal symbols come in two other forms:
- In the lexical and RegExp grammars, Unicode code points without a conventional printed representation are instead shown in the form "<ABBREV>" where "ABBREV" is a mnemonic for the code point or set of code points. These forms are defined in
Unicode Format-Control Characters ,White Space , andLine Terminators . - In the syntactic grammar, certain terminal symbols (e.g.
IdentifierName andRegularExpressionLiteral ) are shown in italics, as they refer to the nonterminals of the same name in the lexical grammar.
5.1.5.2 Nonterminal Symbols and Productions
Nonterminal symbols are shown in italic type. The definition of a nonterminal (also called a “production”) is introduced by the name of the nonterminal being defined followed by one or more colons. (The number of colons indicates to which grammar the production belongs.) One or more alternative right-hand sides for the nonterminal then follow on succeeding lines. For example, the syntactic definition:
states that the nonterminal while, followed by a left parenthesis token, followed by an
states that an
5.1.5.3 Optional Symbols
The subscripted suffix “opt”, which may appear after a terminal or nonterminal, indicates an optional symbol. The alternative containing the optional symbol actually specifies two right-hand sides, one that omits the optional element and one that includes it. This means that:
is a convenient abbreviation for:
and that:
is a convenient abbreviation for:
which in turn is an abbreviation for:
so, in this example, the nonterminal
5.1.5.4 Grammatical Parameters
A production may be parameterized by a subscripted annotation of the form “[parameters]”, which may appear as a suffix to the nonterminal symbol defined by the production. “parameters” may be either a single name or a comma separated list of names. A parameterized production is shorthand for a set of productions defining all combinations of the parameter names, preceded by an underscore, appended to the parameterized nonterminal symbol. This means that:
is a convenient abbreviation for:
and that:
is an abbreviation for:
Multiple parameters produce a combinatoric number of productions, not all of which are necessarily referenced in a complete grammar.
References to nonterminals on the right-hand side of a production can also be parameterized. For example:
is equivalent to saying:
and:
is equivalent to:
A nonterminal reference may have both a parameter list and an “opt” suffix. For example:
is an abbreviation for:
Prefixing a parameter name with “?” on a right-hand side nonterminal reference makes that parameter value dependent upon the occurrence of the parameter name on the reference to the current production's left-hand side symbol. For example:
is an abbreviation for:
If a right-hand side alternative is prefixed with “[+parameter]” that alternative is only available if the named parameter was used in referencing the production's nonterminal symbol. If a right-hand side alternative is prefixed with “[~parameter]” that alternative is only available if the named parameter was not used in referencing the production's nonterminal symbol. This means that:
is an abbreviation for:
and that:
is an abbreviation for:
5.1.5.5 one of
When the words “one of” follow the colon(s) in a grammar definition, they signify that each of the terminal symbols on the following line or lines is an alternative definition. For example, the lexical grammar for ECMAScript contains the production:
which is merely a convenient abbreviation for:
5.1.5.6 [empty]
If the phrase “[empty]” appears as the right-hand side of a production, it indicates that the production's right-hand side contains no terminals or nonterminals.
5.1.5.7 Lookahead Restrictions
If the phrase “[lookahead = seq]” appears in the right-hand side of a production, it indicates that the production may only be used if the token sequence seq is a prefix of the immediately following input token sequence. Similarly, “[lookahead ∈ set]”, where set is a
These conditions may be negated. “[lookahead ≠ seq]” indicates that the containing production may only be used if seq is not a prefix of the immediately following input token sequence, and “[lookahead ∉ set]” indicates that the production may only be used if no element of set is a prefix of the immediately following token sequence.
As an example, given the definitions:
the definition:
matches either the letter n followed by one or more decimal digits the first of which is even, or a decimal digit not followed by another decimal digit.
Note that when these phrases are used in the syntactic grammar, it may not be possible to unambiguously identify the immediately following token sequence because determining later tokens requires knowing which lexical

5.2 Algorithm Conventions
The specification often uses a numbered list to specify steps in an algorithm. These algorithms are used to precisely specify the required semantics of ECMAScript language constructs. The algorithms are not intended to imply the use of any specific implementation technique. In practice, there may be more efficient algorithms available to implement a given feature.
Algorithms may be explicitly parameterized with an ordered, comma-separated sequence of alias names which may be used within the algorithm steps to reference the argument passed in that position. Optional parameters are denoted with surrounding brackets ([ , name ]) and are no different from required parameters within algorithm steps. A rest parameter may appear at the end of a parameter list, denoted with leading ellipsis (, ...name). The rest parameter captures all of the arguments provided following the required and optional parameters into a
Algorithm steps may be subdivided into sequential substeps. Substeps are indented and may themselves be further divided into indented substeps. Outline numbering conventions are used to identify substeps with the first level of substeps labelled with lowercase alphabetic characters and the second level of substeps labelled with lowercase roman numerals. If more than three levels are required these rules repeat with the fourth level using numeric labels. For example:
- Top-level step
- Substep.
- Substep.
- Subsubstep.
- Subsubsubstep
- Subsubsubsubstep
- Subsubsubsubsubstep
- Subsubsubsubstep
- Subsubsubstep
- Subsubstep.
A step or substep may be written as an “if” predicate that conditions its substeps. In this case, the substeps are only applied if the predicate is true. If a step or substep begins with the word “else”, it is a predicate that is the negation of the preceding “if” predicate step at the same level.
A step may specify the iterative application of its substeps.
A step that begins with “Assert:” asserts an invariant condition of its algorithm. Such assertions are used to make explicit algorithmic invariants that would otherwise be implicit. Such assertions add no additional semantic requirements and hence need not be checked by an implementation. They are used simply to clarify algorithms.
Algorithm steps may declare named aliases for any value using the form “Let x be someValue”. These aliases are reference-like in that both x and someValue refer to the same underlying data and modifications to either are visible to both. Algorithm steps that want to avoid this reference-like behaviour should explicitly make a copy of the right-hand side: “Let x be a copy of someValue” creates a shallow copy of someValue.
Once declared, an alias may be referenced in any subsequent steps and must not be referenced from steps prior to the alias's declaration. Aliases may be modified using the form “Set x to someOtherValue”.
5.2.1 Abstract Operations
In order to facilitate their use in multiple parts of this specification, some algorithms, called abstract operations, are named and written in parameterized functional form so that they may be referenced by name from within other algorithms. Abstract operations are typically referenced using a functional application style such as OperationName(arg1, arg2). Some abstract operations are treated as polymorphically dispatched methods of class-like specification abstractions. Such method-like abstract operations are typically referenced using a method application style such as someValue.OperationName(arg1, arg2).
5.2.2 Syntax-Directed Operations
A syntax-directed operation is a named operation whose definition consists of algorithms, each of which is associated with one or more productions from one of the ECMAScript grammars. A production that has multiple alternative definitions will typically have a distinct algorithm for each alternative. When an algorithm is associated with a grammar production, it may reference the terminal and nonterminal symbols of the production alternative as if they were parameters of the algorithm. When used in this manner, nonterminal symbols refer to the actual alternative definition that is matched when parsing the source text. The source text matched by a grammar production or
When an algorithm is associated with a production alternative, the alternative is typically shown without any “[ ]” grammar annotations. Such annotations should only affect the syntactic recognition of the alternative and have no effect on the associated semantics for the alternative.
Syntax-directed operations are invoked with a parse node and, optionally, other parameters by using the conventions on steps
- Let status be SyntaxDirectedOperation of
SomeNonTerminal . - Let someParseNode be the parse of some source text.
- Perform SyntaxDirectedOperation of someParseNode.
- Perform SyntaxDirectedOperation of someParseNode with argument

5.2.3.3 ReturnIfAbrupt
Algorithms steps that say or are otherwise equivalent to:

- Let result be AbstractOperation(argument).
5.2.3.4 ReturnIfAbrupt Shorthands
Invocations of ? indicate that
- ? OperationName().
is equivalent to the following step:
ReturnIfAbrupt (OperationName()).
Similarly, for method application style, the step:
- ? someValue.OperationName().
is equivalent to:
ReturnIfAbrupt (someValue.OperationName()).
Similarly, prefix ! is used to indicate that the following invocation of an abstract or
- Let val be ! OperationName().
is equivalent to the following steps:
- Let val be OperationName().
Assert : val is anormal completion .- Set val to val.[[Value]].

5.2.4 Static Semantics
Context-free grammars are not sufficiently powerful to express all the rules that define whether a stream of input elements form a valid ECMAScript
Static Semantic Rules have names and typically are defined using an algorithm. Named Static Semantic Rules are associated with grammar productions and a production that has multiple alternative definitions will typically have for each alternative a distinct algorithm for each applicable named static semantic rule.
A special kind of static semantic rule is an Early Error Rule.
5.2.5 Mathematical Operations
This specification makes reference to these kinds of numeric values:
- Mathematical values: Arbitrary real numbers, used as the default numeric type.
- Extended mathematical values:
Mathematical values together with +∞ and -∞. - Numbers:
IEEE 754-2019 binary64 (double-precision floating point) values. - BigInts:
ECMAScript language values representing arbitraryintegers in a one-to-one correspondence.
In the language of this specification, numerical values are distinguished among different numeric kinds using subscript suffixes. The subscript 𝔽 refers to Numbers, and the subscript ℤ refers to BigInts. Numeric values without a subscript suffix refer to
In general, when this specification refers to a numerical value, such as in the phrase, "the length of y" or "the

An interval from lower bound a to upper bound b is a possibly-infinite, possibly-empty set of numeric values of the same numeric type. Each bound will be described as either inclusive or exclusive, but not both. There are four kinds of intervals, as follows:
- An
interval from a (inclusive) to b (inclusive), also called an inclusive interval from a to b, includes all values x of the same numeric type such that a ≤ x ≤ b, and no others. - An
interval from a (inclusive) to b (exclusive) includes all values x of the same numeric type such that a ≤ x < b, and no others. - An
interval from a (exclusive) to b (inclusive) includes all values x of the same numeric type such that a < x ≤ b, and no others. - An
interval from a (exclusive) to b (exclusive) includes all values x of the same numeric type such that a < x < b, and no others.

6 ECMAScript Data Types and Values
Algorithms within this specification manipulate values each of which has an associated type. The possible value types are exactly those defined in this clause. Types are further classified into
6.1 ECMAScript Language Types
An ECMAScript language type corresponds to values that are directly manipulated by an ECMAScript programmer using the ECMAScript language. The ECMAScript language types are Undefined, Null, Boolean, String, Symbol, Number, BigInt, and Object. An ECMAScript language value is a value that is characterized by an ECMAScript language type.
6.1.1 The Undefined Type
The Undefined type has exactly one value, called
6.1.2 The Null Type
The Null type has exactly one value, called
6.1.3 The Boolean Type
The Boolean type represents a logical entity having two values, called
6.1.4 The String Type
The String type is the set of all ordered sequences of zero or more 16-bit unsigned
ECMAScript operations that do not interpret String contents apply no further semantics. Operations that do interpret String values treat each element as a single UTF-16 code unit. However, ECMAScript does not restrict the value of or relationships between these code units, so operations that further interpret String contents as sequences of Unicode code points encoded in UTF-16 must account for ill-formed subsequences. Such operations apply special treatment to every code unit with a numeric value in the

leading surrogate and not atrailing surrogate is interpreted as a code point with the same value. -
A sequence of two code units, where the first code unit c1 is a
leading surrogate and the second code unit c2 atrailing surrogate , is a surrogate pair and is interpreted as a code point with the value (c1 - 0xD800) × 0x400 + (c2 - 0xDC00) + 0x10000. (See11.1.3 ) -

In this specification, the phrase "the string-concatenation of A, B, ..." (where each argument is a String value, a code unit, or a sequence of code units) denotes the String value whose sequence of code units is the concatenation of the code units (in order) of each of the arguments (in order).
The phrase "the substring of S from inclusiveStart to exclusiveEnd" (where S is a String value or a sequence of code units and inclusiveStart and exclusiveEnd are
The phrase "the ASCII word characters" denotes the following String value, which consists solely of every letter and number in the Unicode Basic Latin block along with U+005F (LOW LINE):

The abstract operation StringIndexOf takes arguments string (a String), searchValue (a String), and fromIndex (a non-negative

substring of string from i to i + searchLen. - If candidate is searchValue, return i.
- Let candidate be the

If searchValue is the empty String and fromIndex ≤ the length of string, this algorithm returns fromIndex. The empty String is effectively found at every position within a string, including after the last code unit.
This algorithm always returns

If searchValue is the empty String, this algorithm returns fromIndex. The empty String is effectively found at every position within a string, including after the last code unit.
6.1.5 The Symbol Type
The Symbol type is the set of all non-String values that may be used as the key of an Object property (
Each possible Symbol value is unique and immutable.
Each Symbol value immutably holds an associated value called [[Description]] that is either
6.1.5.1 Well-Known Symbols
Well-known symbols are built-in Symbol values that are explicitly referenced by algorithms of this specification. They are typically used as the keys of properties whose values serve as extension points of a specification algorithm. Unless otherwise specified, well-known symbols values are shared by all

6.1.6 Numeric Types
ECMAScript has two built-in numeric types: Number and BigInt. The following
Because the numeric types are in general not convertible without loss of precision or truncation, the ECMAScript language provides no implicit conversion among these types. Programmers must explicitly call Number and BigInt functions to convert among types when calling a function which requires another type.
The first and subsequent editions of ECMAScript have provided, for certain operators, implicit numeric conversions that could lose precision or

The following observations may be useful as guidelines for implementations, but are not part of the normative requirements of this Standard:
For implementations that provide more accurate conversions than required by the rules above, it is recommended that the following alternative version of step
- Let n, k, and s be
integers such that k ≥ 1, radixk - 1 ≤ s < radixk,𝔽 (s × radixn - k) is x, and k is as small as possible. If there are multiple possibilities for s, choose the value of s for which s × radixn - k is closest in value toℝ (x). If there are two such possible values of s, choose the one that is even. Note that k is the number of digits in the representation of s using radix radix and that s is not divisible by radix.

6.1.7 The Object Type
Each instance of the Object type, also referred to simply as “an Object”, represents a collection of properties. Each property is either a data property, or an accessor property:
-
A data property associates a key value with an
ECMAScript language value and a set of Boolean attributes. -
An accessor property associates a key value with one or two accessor functions, and a set of Boolean attributes. The accessor functions are used to store or retrieve an
ECMAScript language value that is associated with the property.
The properties of an object are uniquely identified using
An integer index is a
Every non-negative
All objects are logically collections of properties, but there are multiple forms of objects that differ in their semantics for accessing and manipulating their properties. Please see
In addition, some objects are callable; these are referred to as functions or

6.1.7.2 Object Internal Methods and Internal Slots
The actual semantics of objects, in ECMAScript, are specified via algorithms called internal methods. Each object in an ECMAScript engine is associated with a set of internal methods that defines its runtime behaviour. These internal methods are not part of the ECMAScript language. They are defined by this specification purely for expository purposes. However, each object within an implementation of ECMAScript must behave as specified by the internal methods associated with it. The exact manner in which this is accomplished is determined by the implementation.
Internal method names are polymorphic. This means that different object values may perform different algorithms when a common internal method name is invoked upon them. That actual object upon which an internal method is invoked is the “target” of the invocation. If, at runtime, the implementation of an algorithm attempts to use an internal method of an object that the object does not support, a
Internal slots correspond to internal state that is associated with objects and used by various ECMAScript specification algorithms. Internal slots are not object properties and they are not inherited. Depending upon the specific internal slot specification, such state may consist of values of any
All objects have an internal slot named [[PrivateElements]], which is a
Internal methods and internal slots are identified within this specification using names enclosed in double square brackets [[ ]].
An ordinary object is an object that satisfies all of the following criteria:
-
For the internal methods listed in
Table 4 , the object uses those defined in10.1 . -
If the object has a [[Call]] internal method, it uses either the one defined in
10.2.1 or the one defined in10.3.1 . -
If the object has a [[Construct]] internal method, it uses either the one defined in
10.2.2 or the one defined in10.3.2 .
An exotic object is an object that is not an

In addition to its parameters, an internal method always has access to the object that is the target of the method invocation.

6.1.7.3 Invariants of the Essential Internal Methods
The Internal Methods of Objects of an ECMAScript engine must conform to the list of invariants specified below. Ordinary ECMAScript Objects as well as all standard
Any implementation provided
An implementation must not allow these invariants to be circumvented in any manner such as by providing alternative interfaces that implement the functionality of the essential internal methods without enforcing their invariants.
Definitions:
- The target of an internal method is the object upon which the internal method is called.
-
A target is non-extensible if it has been observed to return
false from its [[IsExtensible]] internal method, ortrue from its [[PreventExtensions]] internal method. - A non-existent property is a property that does not exist as an own property on a non-extensible target.
-
All references to
SameValue are according to the definition of theSameValue algorithm.
Return value:
The value returned by any internal method must be a
- [[Type]] =
normal , [[Target]] =empty , and [[Value]] = a value of the "normal return type" shown below for that internal method, or - [[Type]] =
throw , [[Target]] =empty , and [[Value]] = anyECMAScript language value .
An internal method must not return a
[[GetPrototypeOf]] ( )
- The normal return type is either Object or Null.
-
If target is non-extensible, and [[GetPrototypeOf]] returns a value V, then any future calls to [[GetPrototypeOf]] should return the
SameValue as V.
An object's prototype chain should have
[[SetPrototypeOf]] ( V )
- The normal return type is Boolean.
-
If target is non-extensible, [[SetPrototypeOf]] must return
false , unless V is theSameValue as the target's observed [[GetPrototypeOf]] value.
[[IsExtensible]] ( )
- The normal return type is Boolean.
-
If [[IsExtensible]] returns
false , all future calls to [[IsExtensible]] on the target must returnfalse .
[[PreventExtensions]] ( )
- The normal return type is Boolean.
-
If [[PreventExtensions]] returns
true , all future calls to [[IsExtensible]] on the target must returnfalse and the target is now considered non-extensible.
[[GetOwnProperty]] ( P )
-
The normal return type is either
Property Descriptor or Undefined. -
If the return value is a
Property Descriptor , it must be afully populated Property Descriptor . -
If P is described as a non-configurable, non-writable own
data property , all future calls to [[GetOwnProperty]] ( P ) must returnProperty Descriptor whose [[Value]] isSameValue as P's [[Value]] attribute. -
If P's attributes other than [[Writable]] and [[Value]] may change over time, or if the property might be deleted, then P's [[Configurable]] attribute must be
true . -
If the [[Writable]] attribute may change from
false totrue , then the [[Configurable]] attribute must betrue . -
If the target is non-extensible and P is non-existent, then all future calls to [[GetOwnProperty]] (P) on the target must describe P as non-existent (i.e. [[GetOwnProperty]] (P) must return
undefined ).
As a consequence of the third invariant, if a property is described as a
[[DefineOwnProperty]] ( P, Desc )
- The normal return type is Boolean.
-
[[DefineOwnProperty]] must return
false if P has previously been observed as a non-configurable own property of the target, unless either:-
P is a writable
data property . A non-configurable writabledata property can be changed into a non-configurable non-writabledata property . -
All attributes of Desc are the
SameValue as P's attributes.
-
P is a writable
-
[[DefineOwnProperty]] (P, Desc) must return
false if target is non-extensible and P is a non-existent own property. That is, a non-extensible target object cannot be extended with new properties.
[[HasProperty]] ( P )
- The normal return type is Boolean.
-
If P was previously observed as a non-configurable own data or
accessor property of the target, [[HasProperty]] must returntrue .
[[Get]] ( P, Receiver )
-
The normal return type is any
ECMAScript language type . -
If P was previously observed as a non-configurable, non-writable own
data property of the target with value V, then [[Get]] must return theSameValue as V. -
If P was previously observed as a non-configurable own
accessor property of the target whose [[Get]] attribute isundefined , the [[Get]] operation must returnundefined .
[[Set]] ( P, V, Receiver )
- The normal return type is Boolean.
-
If P was previously observed as a non-configurable, non-writable own
data property of the target, then [[Set]] must returnfalse unless V is theSameValue as P's [[Value]] attribute. -
If P was previously observed as a non-configurable own
accessor property of the target whose [[Set]] attribute isundefined , the [[Set]] operation must returnfalse .
[[Delete]] ( P )
- The normal return type is Boolean.
-
If P was previously observed as a non-configurable own data or
accessor property of the target, [[Delete]] must returnfalse .
[[OwnPropertyKeys]] ( )
-
The normal return type is
List . -
The returned
List must not contain any duplicate entries. -
Each element of the returned
List must be aproperty key . -
The returned
List must contain at least the keys of all non-configurable own properties that have previously been observed. -
If the target is non-extensible, the returned
List must contain only the keys of all own properties of the target that are observable using [[GetOwnProperty]].
[[Call]] ( )
-
The normal return type is any
ECMAScript language type .
[[Construct]] ( )
- The normal return type is Object.
- The target must also have a [[Call]] internal method.

6.2 ECMAScript Specification Types
A specification type corresponds to meta-values that are used within algorithms to describe the semantics of ECMAScript language constructs and
6.2.1 The Enum Specification Type
Enums are values which are internal to the specification and not directly observable from ECMAScript code. Enums are denoted using a
6.2.2 The List and Record Specification Types
The List type is used to explain the evaluation of argument lists (see new expressions, in function calls, and in other algorithms where a simple ordered list of values is needed. Values of the List type are simply ordered sequences of list elements containing the individual values. These sequences may be of any length. The elements of a list may be randomly accessed using 0-origin indices. For notational convenience an array-like syntax can be used to access List elements. For example, arguments[2] is shorthand for saying the 3rd element of the List arguments.
When an algorithm iterates over the elements of a List without specifying an order, the order used is the order of the elements in the List.
For notational convenience within this specification, a literal syntax can be used to express a new List value. For example, « 1, 2 » defines a List value that has two elements each of which is initialized to a specific value. A new empty List can be expressed as « ».
In this specification, the phrase "the list-concatenation of A, B, ..." (where each argument is a possibly empty List) denotes a new List value whose elements are the concatenation of the elements (in order) of each of the arguments (in order).
As applied to a List of Strings, the phrase "sorted according to lexicographic code unit order" means sorting by the numeric value of each code unit up to the length of the shorter string, and sorting the shorter string before the longer string if all are equal, as described in the abstract operation
The Record type is used to describe data aggregations within the algorithms of this specification. A Record type value consists of one or more named fields. The value of each field is an
For notational convenience within this specification, an object literal-like syntax can be used to express a Record value. For example, { [[Field1]]: 42, [[Field2]]:
In specification text and algorithms, dot notation may be used to refer to a specific field of a Record value. For example, if R is the record shown in the previous paragraph then R.[[Field2]] is shorthand for “the field of R named [[Field2]]”.
Schema for commonly used Record field combinations may be named, and that name may be used as a prefix to a literal Record value to identify the specific kind of aggregations that is being described. For example: PropertyDescriptor { [[Value]]: 42, [[Writable]]:
6.2.3 The Set and Relation Specification Types
The Set type is used to explain a collection of unordered elements for use in the
The Relation type is used to explain constraints on Sets. Values of the Relation type are Sets of ordered pairs of values from its value domain. For example, a Relation on events is a set of ordered pairs of events. For a Relation R and two values a and b in the value domain of R, a R b is shorthand for saying the ordered pair (a, b) is a member of R. A Relation is the least Relation with respect to some conditions when it is the smallest Relation that satisfies those conditions.
A strict partial order is a Relation value R that satisfies the following.
-
For all a, b, and c in R's domain:
- It is not the case that a R a, and
- If a R b and b R c, then a R c.
The two properties above are called irreflexivity and transitivity, respectively.
A strict total order is a Relation value R that satisfies the following.
-
For all a, b, and c in R's domain:
- a is b or a R b or b R a, and
- It is not the case that a R a, and
- If a R b and b R c, then a R c.
The three properties above are called totality, irreflexivity, and transitivity, respectively.
6.2.4 The Completion Record Specification Type
The Completion Record specification type is used to explain the runtime propagation of values and control flow such as the behaviour of statements (break, continue, return and throw) that perform nonlocal transfers of control.
Completion Records have the fields defined in
| Field Name | Value | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| [[Type]] |
|
The type of completion that occurred. |
| [[Value]] |
any value except a |
The value that was produced. |
| [[Target]] |
a String or |
The target label for directed control transfers. |
The following shorthand terms are sometimes used to refer to Completion Records.
- normal completion refers to any Completion Record with a [[Type]] value of
normal . - break completion refers to any Completion Record with a [[Type]] value of
break . - continue completion refers to any Completion Record with a [[Type]] value of
continue . - return completion refers to any Completion Record with a [[Type]] value of
return . - throw completion refers to any Completion Record with a [[Type]] value of
throw . - abrupt completion refers to any Completion Record with a [[Type]] value other than
normal . - a normal completion containing some type of value refers to a normal completion that has a value of that type in its [[Value]] field.
Callable objects that are defined in this specification only return a normal completion or a throw completion. Returning any other kind of Completion Record is considered an editorial error.

6.2.8 The Abstract Closure Specification Type
The Abstract Closure specification type is used to refer to algorithm steps together with a collection of values. Abstract Closures are meta-values and are invoked using function application style such as closure(arg1, arg2). Like
In algorithm steps that create an Abstract Closure, values are captured with the verb "capture" followed by a list of aliases. When an Abstract Closure is created, it captures the value that is associated with each alias at that time. In steps that specify the algorithm to be performed when an Abstract Closure is called, each captured value is referred to by the alias that was used to capture the value.
If an Abstract Closure returns a

Environment Record is a specification type used to define the association of
Every Environment Record has an [[OuterEnv]] field, which is either
Environment Records are purely specification mechanisms and need not correspond to any specific artefact of an ECMAScript implementation. It is impossible for an ECMAScript program to directly access or manipulate such values.
9.1.1 The Environment Record Type Hierarchy
-
Environment Record (abstract)-
A
Declarative Environment Record is used to define the effect of ECMAScript language syntactic elements such asFunctionDeclaration s,VariableDeclaration s, andCatch clauses that directly associate identifier bindings withECMAScript language values .-
A
Function Environment Record corresponds to the invocation of an ECMAScriptfunction object , and contains bindings for the top-level declarations within that function. It may establish a newthisbinding. It also captures the state necessary to supportsupermethod invocations. -
A
Module Environment Record contains the bindings for the top-level declarations of aModule . It also contains the bindings that are explicitly imported by theModule . Its [[OuterEnv]] is aGlobal Environment Record .
-
-
An
Object Environment Record is used to define the effect of ECMAScript elements such asWithStatement that associate identifier bindings with the properties of some object. -
A
Global Environment Record is used forScript global declarations. It does not have an outer environment; its [[OuterEnv]] isnull . It may be prepopulated with identifier bindings and it includes an associatedglobal object whose properties provide some of the global environment's identifier bindings. As ECMAScript code is executed, additional properties may be added to theglobal object and the initial properties may be modified.

The values of [[IsLockFree1]] and [[IsLockFree2]] are not necessarily determined by the hardware, but may also reflect implementation choices that can vary over time and between ECMAScript implementations.
There is no [[IsLockFree4]] field: 4-byte atomic operations are always lock-free.
In practice, if an atomic operation is implemented with any type of lock the operation is not lock-free. Lock-free does not imply wait-free: there is no upper bound on how many machine steps may be required to complete a lock-free atomic operation.
That an atomic access of size n is lock-free does not imply anything about the (perceived) atomicity of non-atomic accesses of size n, specifically, non-atomic accesses may still be performed as a sequence of several separate memory accesses. See

9.9.2 Liveness
For some set of objects and/or symbols S a hypothetical WeakRef-oblivious execution with respect to S is an execution whereby the abstract operation
At any point during evaluation, a set of objects and/or symbols S is considered live if either of the following conditions is met:
-
Any element in S is included in any
agent 's [[KeptAlive]]List . - There exists a valid future hypothetical WeakRef-oblivious execution with respect to S that observes the identity of any value in S.
Presence of an object or a symbol in a field, an internal slot, or a property does not imply that the value is live. For example if the value in question is never passed back to the program, then it cannot be observed.
This is the case for keys in a WeakMap, members of a WeakSet, as well as the [[WeakRefTarget]] and [[UnregisterToken]] fields of a
The above definition implies that, if a key in a WeakMap is not live, then its corresponding value is not necessarily live either.

When a handler method is called to provide the implementation of a Proxy object internal method, the handler method is passed the proxy's target object as a parameter. A proxy's handler object does not necessarily have a method corresponding to every essential internal method. Invoking an internal method on the proxy results in the invocation of the corresponding internal method on the proxy's target object if the handler object does not have a method corresponding to the internal trap.
The [[ProxyHandler]] and [[ProxyTarget]] internal slots of a Proxy object are always initialized when the object is created and typically may not be modified. Some Proxy objects are created in a manner that permits them to be subsequently revoked. When a proxy is revoked, its [[ProxyHandler]] and [[ProxyTarget]] internal slots are set to
Because Proxy objects permit the implementation of internal methods to be provided by arbitrary ECMAScript code, it is possible to define a Proxy object whose handler methods violates the invariants defined in

11 ECMAScript Language: Source Text
11.1 Source Text
Syntax
ECMAScript source text is a sequence of Unicode code points. All Unicode code point values from U+0000 to U+10FFFF, including surrogate code points, may occur in ECMAScript source text where permitted by the ECMAScript grammars. The actual encodings used to store and interchange ECMAScript source text is not relevant to this specification. Regardless of the external source text encoding, a conforming ECMAScript implementation processes the source text as if it was an equivalent sequence of
The components of a combining character sequence are treated as individual Unicode code points even though a user might think of the whole sequence as a single character.
In string literals, regular expression literals, template literals and identifiers, any Unicode code point may also be expressed using Unicode escape sequences that explicitly express a code point's numeric value. Within a comment, such an escape sequence is effectively ignored as part of the comment.
ECMAScript differs from the Java programming language in the behaviour of Unicode escape sequences. In a Java program, if the Unicode escape sequence \u000A, for example, occurs within a single-line comment, it is interpreted as a line terminator (Unicode code point U+000A is LINE FEED (LF)) and therefore the next code point is not part of the comment. Similarly, if the Unicode escape sequence \u000A occurs within a string literal in a Java program, it is likewise interpreted as a line terminator, which is not allowed within a string literal—one must write \n instead of \u000A to cause a LINE FEED (LF) to be part of the value of a string literal. In an ECMAScript program, a Unicode escape sequence occurring within a comment is never interpreted and therefore cannot contribute to termination of the comment. Similarly, a Unicode escape sequence occurring within a string literal in an ECMAScript program always contributes to the literal and is never interpreted as a line terminator or as a code point that might terminate the string literal.
11.1.1 Static Semantics: UTF16EncodeCodePoint ( cp )
The abstract operation UTF16EncodeCodePoint takes argument cp (a Unicode code point) and returns a String. It performs the following steps when called:
Assert : 0 ≤ cp ≤ 0x10FFFF.- If cp ≤ 0xFFFF, return the String value consisting of the code unit whose numeric value is cp.
- Let cu1 be the code unit whose numeric value is
floor ((cp - 0x10000) / 0x400) + 0xD800. - Let cu2 be the code unit whose numeric value is ((cp - 0x10000)
modulo 0x400) + 0xDC00. - Return the
string-concatenation of cu1 and cu2.
11.1.2 Static Semantics: CodePointsToString ( text )
The abstract operation CodePointsToString takes argument text (a sequence of Unicode code points) and returns a String. It converts text into a String value, as described in

11.2 Types of Source Code
There are four types of ECMAScript code:
-
Global code is source text that is treated as an ECMAScript
Script . The global code of a particularScript does not include any source text that is parsed as part of aFunctionDeclaration ,FunctionExpression ,GeneratorDeclaration ,GeneratorExpression ,AsyncFunctionDeclaration ,AsyncFunctionExpression ,AsyncGeneratorDeclaration ,AsyncGeneratorExpression ,MethodDefinition ,ArrowFunction ,AsyncArrowFunction ,ClassDeclaration , orClassExpression . -
Eval code is the source text supplied to the built-in
evalfunction. More precisely, if the parameter to the built-inevalfunctionis a String , it is treated as an ECMAScriptScript . The eval code for a particular invocation ofevalis the global code portion of thatScript . -
Function code is source text that is parsed to supply the value of the [[ECMAScriptCode]] and [[FormalParameters]] internal slots (see
10.2 ) of an ECMAScriptfunction object . The function code of a particular ECMAScript function does not include any source text that is parsed as the function code of a nestedFunctionDeclaration ,FunctionExpression ,GeneratorDeclaration ,GeneratorExpression ,AsyncFunctionDeclaration ,AsyncFunctionExpression ,AsyncGeneratorDeclaration ,AsyncGeneratorExpression ,MethodDefinition ,ArrowFunction ,AsyncArrowFunction ,ClassDeclaration , orClassExpression .In addition, if the source text referred to above is parsed as:
- the
FormalParameters andFunctionBody of aFunctionDeclaration orFunctionExpression , - the
FormalParameters andGeneratorBody of aGeneratorDeclaration orGeneratorExpression , - the
FormalParameters andAsyncFunctionBody of anAsyncFunctionDeclaration orAsyncFunctionExpression , or - the
FormalParameters andAsyncGeneratorBody of anAsyncGeneratorDeclaration orAsyncGeneratorExpression ,
then the
source text matched by theBindingIdentifier (if any) of that declaration or expression is also included in the function code of the corresponding function. - the
-
Module code is source text that is code that is provided as a
ModuleBody . It is the code that is directly evaluated when a module is initialized. The module code of a particular module does not include any source text that is parsed as part of a nestedFunctionDeclaration ,FunctionExpression ,GeneratorDeclaration ,GeneratorExpression ,AsyncFunctionDeclaration ,AsyncFunctionExpression ,AsyncGeneratorDeclaration ,AsyncGeneratorExpression ,MethodDefinition ,ArrowFunction ,AsyncArrowFunction ,ClassDeclaration , orClassExpression .
Function code is generally provided as the bodies of Function Definitions (

11.2.2 Strict Mode Code
An ECMAScript syntactic unit may be processed using either unrestricted or strict mode syntax and semantics (
-
Global code is strict mode code if it begins with aDirective Prologue that contains aUse Strict Directive . -
Module code is always strict mode code. -
All parts of a
ClassDeclaration or aClassExpression are strict mode code. -
Eval code is strict mode code if it begins with aDirective Prologue that contains aUse Strict Directive or if the call toevalis adirect eval that is contained in strict mode code. -
Function code is strict mode code if the associatedFunctionDeclaration ,FunctionExpression ,GeneratorDeclaration ,GeneratorExpression ,AsyncFunctionDeclaration ,AsyncFunctionExpression ,AsyncGeneratorDeclaration ,AsyncGeneratorExpression ,MethodDefinition ,ArrowFunction , orAsyncArrowFunction is contained in strict mode code or if the code that produces the value of the function's [[ECMAScriptCode]] internal slot begins with aDirective Prologue that contains aUse Strict Directive . -
Function code that is supplied as the arguments to the built-in Function, Generator, AsyncFunction, and AsyncGeneratorconstructors is strict mode code if the last argumentis a String that when processed is aFunctionBody that begins with aDirective Prologue that contains aUse Strict Directive .
ECMAScript code that is not strict mode code is called non-strict code.

12 ECMAScript Language: Lexical Grammar
The source text of an ECMAScript
There are several situations where the identification of lexical input elements is sensitive to the syntactic grammar context that is consuming the input elements. This requires multiple
The use of multiple lexical goals ensures that there are no lexical ambiguities that would affect automatic semicolon insertion. For example, there are no syntactic grammar contexts where both a leading division or division-assignment, and a leading

a = b / hi / g.exec(c).map(d);Syntax
12.1 Unicode Format-Control Characters
The Unicode format-control characters (i.e., the characters in category “Cf” in the Unicode Character Database such as LEFT-TO-RIGHT MARK or RIGHT-TO-LEFT MARK) are control codes used to control the formatting of a range of text in the absence of higher-level protocols for this (such as mark-up languages).
It is useful to allow format-control characters in source text to facilitate editing and display. All format control characters may be used within comments, and within string literals, template literals, and regular expression literals.
U+FEFF (ZERO WIDTH NO-BREAK SPACE) is a format-control character used primarily at the start of a text to mark it as Unicode and to allow detection of the text's encoding and byte order. <ZWNBSP> characters intended for this purpose can sometimes also appear after the start of a text, for example as a result of concatenating files. In
12.2 White Space
White space code points are used to improve source text readability and to separate tokens (indivisible lexical units) from each other, but are otherwise insignificant. White space code points may occur between any two tokens and at the start or end of input. White space code points may occur within a

12.3 Line Terminators
Like white space code points, line terminator code points are used to improve source text readability and to separate tokens (indivisible lexical units) from each other. However, unlike white space code points, line terminators have some influence over the behaviour of the syntactic grammar. In general, line terminators may occur between any two tokens, but there are a few places where they are forbidden by the syntactic grammar. Line terminators also affect the process of automatic semicolon insertion (

12.7.2 Keywords and Reserved Words
A keyword is a token that matches fixed width font, in some syntactic production. The keywords of ECMAScript include if, while, async, await, and many others.
A reserved word is an if and while are reserved words. await is reserved only inside async functions and modules. async is not reserved; it can be used as a variable name or statement label without restriction.
This specification uses a combination of grammatical productions and await and yield, are unconditionally reserved. Exceptions for await and yield are specified in
-
Those that are always allowed as identifiers, and are not keywords, such as
Math,window,toString, and_; -
Those that are never allowed as identifiers, namely the

Those that are always allowed as identifiers, but also appear as keywords within certain syntactic productions, at places where
Identifier is not allowed:as,async,from,get,meta,of,set, andtarget.
The term conditional keyword, or contextual keyword, is sometimes used to refer to the keywords that fall in the last three categories, and thus can be used as identifiers in some contexts and as keywords in others.

12.10 Automatic Semicolon Insertion
Most ECMAScript statements and declarations must be terminated with a semicolon. Such semicolons may always appear explicitly in the source text. For convenience, however, such semicolons may be omitted from the source text in certain situations. These situations are described by saying that semicolons are automatically inserted into the source code token stream in those situations.
12.10.1 Rules of Automatic Semicolon Insertion
In the following rules, “token” means the actual recognized lexical token determined using the current lexical
There are three basic rules of semicolon insertion:
-
When, as the source text is parsed from left to right, a token (called the offending token) is encountered that is not allowed by any production of the grammar, then a semicolon is automatically inserted before the offending token if one or more of the following conditions is true:
-
The offending token is separated from the previous token by at least one
LineTerminator . -
The offending token is
}. -
The previous token is
)and the inserted semicolon would then be parsed as the terminating semicolon of a do-while statement (14.7.2 ).
-
The offending token is separated from the previous token by at least one
- When, as the source text is parsed from left to right, the end of the input stream of tokens is encountered and the parser is unable to parse the input token stream as a single instance of the goal nonterminal, then a semicolon is automatically inserted at the end of the input stream.
-
When, as the source text is parsed from left to right, a token is encountered that is allowed by some production of the grammar, but the production is a restricted production and the token would be the first token for a terminal or nonterminal immediately following the annotation “[no
LineTerminator here]” within the restricted production (and therefore such a token is called a restricted token), and the restricted token is separated from the previous token by at least oneLineTerminator , then a semicolon is automatically inserted before the restricted token.
However, there is an additional overriding condition on the preceding rules: a semicolon is never inserted automatically if the semicolon would then be parsed as an empty statement or if that semicolon would become one of the two semicolons in the header of a for statement (see
The following are the only restricted productions in the grammar:
The practical effect of these restricted productions is as follows:
-
When a
++or--token is encountered where the parser would treat it as a postfix operator, and at least oneLineTerminator occurred between the preceding token and the++or--token, then a semicolon is automatically inserted before the++or--token. -
When a
continue,break,return,throw, oryieldtoken is encountered and aLineTerminator is encountered before the next token, a semicolon is automatically inserted after thecontinue,break,return,throw, oryieldtoken. -
When arrow function parameter(s) are followed by a
LineTerminator before a=>token, a semicolon is automatically inserted and the punctuator causes a syntax error. -
When an
asynctoken is followed by aLineTerminator before afunctionorIdentifierName or(token, a semicolon is automatically inserted and theasynctoken is not treated as part of the same expression or class element as the following tokens. -
When an
asynctoken is followed by aLineTerminator before a*token, a semicolon is automatically inserted and the punctuator causes a syntax error.
The resulting practical advice to ECMAScript programmers is:
-
A postfix
++or--operator should be on the same line as its operand. -
An
Expression in areturnorthrowstatement or anAssignmentExpression in ayieldexpression should start on the same line as thereturn,throw, oryieldtoken. -
A
LabelIdentifier in abreakorcontinuestatement should be on the same line as thebreakorcontinuetoken. -
The end of an arrow function's parameter(s) and its
=>should be on the same line. -
The
asynctoken preceding an asynchronous function or method should be on the same line as the immediately following token.
12.10.2 Examples of Automatic Semicolon Insertion
This section is non-normative.The source
{ 1 2 } 3is not a valid sentence in the ECMAScript grammar, even with the automatic semicolon insertion rules. In contrast, the source
{ 1
2 } 3is also not a valid ECMAScript sentence, but is transformed by automatic semicolon insertion into the following:
{ 1
;2 ;} 3;which is a valid ECMAScript sentence.
The source
for (a; b
)is not a valid ECMAScript sentence and is not altered by automatic semicolon insertion because the semicolon is needed for the header of a for statement. Automatic semicolon insertion never inserts one of the two semicolons in the header of a for statement.
The source
return
a + bis transformed by automatic semicolon insertion into the following:
return;
a + b;The expression a + b is not treated as a value to be returned by the return statement, because a return.
The source
a = b
++cis transformed by automatic semicolon insertion into the following:
a = b;
++c;The token ++ is not treated as a postfix operator applying to the variable b, because a b and ++.
The source
if (a > b)
else c = dis not a valid ECMAScript sentence and is not altered by automatic semicolon insertion before the else token, even though no production of the grammar applies at that point, because an automatically inserted semicolon would then be parsed as an empty statement.
The source
a = b + c
(d + e).print()is not transformed by automatic semicolon insertion, because the parenthesized expression that begins the second line can be interpreted as an argument list for a function call:
a = b + c(d + e).print()In the circumstance that an assignment statement must begin with a left parenthesis, it is a good idea for the programmer to provide an explicit semicolon at the end of the preceding statement rather than to rely on automatic semicolon insertion.
12.10.3 Interesting Cases of Automatic Semicolon Insertion
This section is non-normative.ECMAScript programs can be written in a style with very few semicolons by relying on automatic semicolon insertion. As described above, semicolons are not inserted at every newline, and automatic semicolon insertion can depend on multiple tokens across line terminators.
As new syntactic features are added to ECMAScript, additional grammar productions could be added that cause lines relying on automatic semicolon insertion preceding them to change grammar productions when parsed.
For the purposes of this section, a case of automatic semicolon insertion is considered interesting if it is a place where a semicolon may or may not be inserted, depending on the source text which precedes it. The rest of this section describes a number of interesting cases of automatic semicolon insertion in this version of ECMAScript.
12.10.3.1 Interesting Cases of Automatic Semicolon Insertion in Statement Lists
In a
- An opening parenthesis (
(). Without a semicolon, the two lines together are treated as aCallExpression . - An opening square bracket (
[). Without a semicolon, the two lines together are treated as property access, rather than anArrayLiteral orArrayAssignmentPattern . - A template literal (
`). Without a semicolon, the two lines together are interpreted as a tagged Template (13.3.11 ), with the previous expression as theMemberExpression . - Unary
+or-. Without a semicolon, the two lines together are interpreted as a usage of the corresponding binary operator. - A RegExp literal. Without a semicolon, the two lines together may be parsed instead as the
/MultiplicativeOperator , for example if the RegExp has flags.

Evaluation ofRelationalExpression . - Let rVal be ?

IsStrictlyEqual (rVal, lVal). - If r is

Given the above definition of equality:
-
String comparison can be forced by:
`${a}` == `${b}`. -
Numeric comparison can be forced by:
+a == +b. -
Boolean comparison can be forced by:
!a == !b.
The equality operators maintain the following invariants:
-
A != Bis equivalent to!(A == B). -
A == Bis equivalent toB == A, except in the order of evaluation ofAandB.
The equality operator is not always transitive. For example, there might be two distinct String objects, each representing the same String value; each String object would be considered equal to the String value by the == operator, but the two String objects would not be equal to each other. For example:
-
new String("a") == "a"and"a" == new String("a")are bothtrue . -
new String("a") == new String("a")isfalse .
Comparison of Strings uses a simple equality test on sequences of code unit values. There is no attempt to use the more complex, semantically oriented definitions of character or string equality and collating order defined in the Unicode specification. Therefore Strings values that are canonically equal according to the Unicode Standard could test as unequal. In effect this algorithm assumes that both Strings are already in normalized form.

- Return an
iterator object whosenextmethod iterates over all the String-valued keys of enumerable properties of O. Theiterator object is never directly accessible to ECMAScript code. The mechanics and order of enumerating the properties is not specified but must conform to the rules specified below.
The throw and return methods are next method processes object properties to determine whether the next method is ignored. If new properties are added to the target object during enumeration, the newly added properties are not guaranteed to be processed in the active enumeration. A next method at most once in any enumeration.
Enumerating the properties of the target object includes enumerating properties of its prototype, and the prototype of the prototype, and so on, recursively; but a property of a prototype is not processed if it has the same name as a property that has already been processed by the next method. The values of [[Enumerable]] attributes are not considered when determining if a property of a prototype object has already been processed. The enumerable property names of prototype objects must be obtained by invoking EnumerateObjectProperties passing the prototype object as the argument. EnumerateObjectProperties must obtain the own
In addition, if neither O nor any object in its prototype chain is a
- the value of the [[Prototype]] internal slot of O or an object in its prototype chain changes,
- a property is removed from O or an object in its prototype chain,
- a property is added to an object in O's prototype chain, or
- the value of the [[Enumerable]] attribute of a property of O or an object in its prototype chain changes.
ECMAScript implementations are not required to implement the algorithm in
The following is an informative definition of an ECMAScript generator function that conforms to these rules:

The
For ease of specification, private methods and accessors are included alongside private fields in the [[PrivateElements]] slot of class instances. However, any given object has either all or none of the private methods and accessors defined by a given class. This feature has been designed so that implementations may choose to implement private methods and accessors using a strategy which does not require tracking each method or accessor individually.
For example, an implementation could directly associate instance private methods with their corresponding this value. Looking up an instance private method on an object then consists of checking that the class
This differs from private fields: because field initializers can throw during class instantiation, an individual object may have some proper subset of the private fields of a given class, and so private fields must in general be tracked individually.

Assert : The currentexecution context will not subsequently be used for the evaluation of any ECMAScript code or built-in functions. The invocation of Call subsequent to the invocation of this abstract operation will create and push a newexecution context before performing any such evaluation.- Discard all resources associated with the current
execution context . - Return

A tail position call must either release any transient internal resources associated with the currently executing function
For example, a tail position call should only grow an implementation's activation record stack by the amount that the size of the target function's activation record exceeds the size of the calling function's activation record. If the target function's activation record is smaller, then the total size of the stack should decrease.

16.2.1.6.2 Example Cyclic Module Record Graphs
This non-normative section gives a series of examples of the linking and evaluation of a few common module graphs, with a specific focus on how errors can occur.
First consider the following simple module graph:
Let's first assume that there are no error conditions. When a
Consider then cases involving linking errors, after a successful call to A.LoadRequestedModules(). If
Finally, consider a case involving evaluation errors after a successful call to Link(). If
Now consider a different type of error condition:
In this scenario, module A declares a dependency on some other module, but no
The difference here between loading, linking and evaluation errors is due to the following characteristic:
Evaluation must be only performed once, as it can cause side effects; it is thus important to remember whether evaluation has already been performed, even if unsuccessfully. (In the error case, it makes sense to also remember the exception because otherwise subsequent Evaluate() calls would have to synthesize a new one.)- Linking, on the other hand, is side-effect-free, and thus even if it fails, it can be retried at a later time with no issues.
- Loading closely interacts with the
host , and it may be desirable for some of them to allow users to retry failed loads (for example, if the failure is caused by temporarily bad network conditions).
Now, consider a module graph with a cycle:
Here we assume that the entry point is module A, so that the
Then the
An analogous story occurs for the evaluation phase of a cyclic module graph, in the success case.
Now consider a case where A has a linking error; for example, it tries to import a binding from C that does not exist. In that case, the above steps still occur, including the early return from the second call to
Alternatively, consider a case where A has an evaluation error; for example, its source code throws an exception. In that case, the evaluation-time analogue of the above steps still occurs, including the early return from the second call to await through the whole dependency graph through the
Lastly, consider a module graph with a cycle, where all modules complete asynchronously:
Loading and linking happen as before, and all modules end up with [[Status]] set to

17 Error Handling and Language Extensions
An implementation must report most errors at the time the relevant ECMAScript language construct is evaluated. An early error is an error that can be detected and reported prior to the evaluation of any construct in the eval is called and prevent evaluation of the eval code. All errors that are not
An implementation must report as an
An implementation shall not treat other kinds of errors as
An implementation shall report all errors as specified, except for the following:
-
Except as restricted in
17.1 , ahost or implementation may extendScript syntax,Module syntax, and regular expression pattern or flag syntax. To permit this, all operations (such as callingeval, using a regular expression literal, or using the Function or RegExpconstructor ) that are allowed to throwSyntaxError are permitted to exhibithost-defined behaviour instead of throwingSyntaxError when they encounter ahost-defined extension to the script syntax or regular expression pattern or flag syntax. -
Except as restricted in
17.1 , ahost or implementation may provide additional types, values, objects, properties, and functions beyond those described in this specification. This may cause constructs (such as looking up a variable in the global scope) to havehost-defined behaviour instead of throwing an error (such asReferenceError ).
17.1 Forbidden Extensions
An implementation must not extend this specification in the following ways:
-
ECMAScript
function objects defined using syntacticconstructors instrict mode code must not be created with own properties named"caller" or"arguments" . Such own properties also must not be created forfunction objects defined using anArrowFunction ,MethodDefinition ,GeneratorDeclaration ,GeneratorExpression ,AsyncGeneratorDeclaration ,AsyncGeneratorExpression ,ClassDeclaration ,ClassExpression ,AsyncFunctionDeclaration ,AsyncFunctionExpression , orAsyncArrowFunction regardless of whether the definition is contained instrict mode code . Built-in functions,strict functions created using the Functionconstructor , generator functions created using the Generatorconstructor , async functions created using the AsyncFunctionconstructor , and functions created using thebindmethod also must not be created with such own properties. -
If an implementation extends any
function object with an own property named"caller" the value of that property, as observed using [[Get]] or [[GetOwnProperty]], must not be astrict function object. If it is anaccessor property , the function that is the value of the property's [[Get]] attribute must never return astrict function when called. -
Neither mapped nor unmapped arguments objects may be created with an own property named
"caller" . -
The behaviour of built-in methods which are specified in ECMA-402, such as those named
toLocaleString, must not be extended except as specified in ECMA-402. -
The RegExp pattern grammars in
22.2.1 andB.1.2 must not be extended to recognize any of the source characters A-Z or a-z asIdentityEscape when the [UnicodeMode] grammar parameter is present.[+UnicodeMode] -
The Syntactic Grammar must not be extended in any manner that allows the token
:to immediately follow source text that is matched by theBindingIdentifier nonterminal symbol. -
When processing
strict mode code , an implementation must not relax theearly error rules of12.9.3.1 . -
TemplateEscapeSequence must not be extended to includeLegacyOctalEscapeSequence orNonOctalDecimalEscapeSequence as defined in12.9.4 . -
When processing
strict mode code , the extensions defined inB.3.1 ,B.3.2 ,B.3.3 , andB.3.5 must not be supported. -
When parsing for the
Module goal symbol , the lexical grammar extensions defined inB.1.1 must not be supported. -
ImportCall must not be extended.

19.2.6 URI Handling Functions
Uniform Resource Identifiers, or URIs, are Strings that identify resources (e.g. web pages or files) and transport protocols by which to access them (e.g. HTTP or FTP) on the Internet. The ECMAScript language itself does not provide any support for using URIs except for functions that encode and decode URIs as described in this section. encodeURI and decodeURI are intended to work with complete URIs; they assume that any reserved characters are intended to have special meaning (e.g., as delimiters) and so are not encoded. encodeURIComponent and decodeURIComponent are intended to work with the individual components of a URI; they assume that any reserved characters represent text and must be encoded to avoid special meaning when the component is part of a complete URI.
The set of reserved characters is based upon RFC 2396 and does not reflect changes introduced by the more recent RFC 3986.
Many implementations of ECMAScript provide additional functions and methods that manipulate web pages; these functions are beyond the scope of this standard.
19.2.6.1 decodeURI ( encodedURI )
This function computes a new version of a URI in which each escape sequence and UTF-8 encoding of the sort that might be introduced by the encodeURI function is replaced with the UTF-16 encoding of the code point that it represents. Escape sequences that could not have been introduced by encodeURI are not replaced.
It is the %decodeURI% intrinsic object.
It performs the following steps when called:
19.2.6.2 decodeURIComponent ( encodedURIComponent )
This function computes a new version of a URI in which each escape sequence and UTF-8 encoding of the sort that might be introduced by the encodeURIComponent function is replaced with the UTF-16 encoding of the code point that it represents.

- Let alwaysUnescaped be the
string-concatenation ofthe ASCII word characters and"-.!~*'()" . - Let unescapedSet be the
string-concatenation of alwaysUnescaped and extraUnescaped. - Let k be 0.
- Repeat, while k < len,
- Let C be the code unit at index k within string.

- Let cp be
CodePointAt (string, k). - If cp.[[IsUnpairedSurrogate]] is
true , throw aURIError exception. - Set k to k + cp.[[CodeUnitCount]].
- Let Octets be the
List of octets resulting by applying the UTF-8 transformation to cp.[[CodePoint]]. - For each element octet of Octets, do
- Let hex be the String representation of octet, formatted as an uppercase hexadecimal number.
- Set R to the
string-concatenation of R,"%" , andStringPad (hex, 2,"0" ,start ).

Because percent-encoding is used to represent individual octets, a single code point may be expressed as multiple consecutive escape sequences (one for each of its 8-bit UTF-8 code units).
19.2.6.6 Decode ( string, preserveEscapeSet )
The abstract operation Decode takes arguments string (a String) and preserveEscapeSet (a String) and returns either a

- Let S be C.
- If C is the code unit 0x0025 (PERCENT SIGN), then
- If k + 3 > len, throw a
URIError exception. - Let escape be the
substring of string from k to k + 3. - Let B be
ParseHexOctet (string, k + 1). - If B is not an
integer , throw aURIError exception. - Set k to k + 2.
- Let n be the number of leading 1 bits in B.
- If n = 0, then
- Let asciiChar be the code unit whose numeric value is B.
- If preserveEscapeSet contains asciiChar, set S to escape. Otherwise, set S to asciiChar.

URIError exception. - Let continuationByte be
ParseHexOctet (string, k + 1). - If continuationByte is not an
integer , throw aURIError exception. - Append continuationByte to Octets.
- Set k to k + 2.
- Set j to j + 1.
Assert : The length of Octets is n.- If Octets does not contain a valid UTF-8 encoding of a Unicode code point, throw a
URIError exception. - Let V be the code point obtained by applying the UTF-8 transformation to Octets, that is, from a
List of octets into a 21-bit value. - Set S to
UTF16EncodeCodePoint (V).
- If n = 1 or n > 4, throw a
- If k + 3 > len, throw a
- Set R to the
string-concatenation of R and S. - Set k to k + 1.
- Return R.
RFC 3629 prohibits the decoding of invalid UTF-8 octet sequences. For example, the invalid sequence 0xC0 0x80 must not decode into the code unit 0x0000. Implementations of the Decode algorithm are required to throw a

Historically, this method was occasionally used to access the String value of the [[Class]] internal slot that was used in previous editions of this specification as a nominal type tag for various built-in objects. The above definition of toString preserves compatibility for legacy code that uses toString as a test for those specific kinds of built-in objects. It does not provide a reliable type testing mechanism for other kinds of built-in or program defined objects. In addition, programs can use

Subclassconstructors that intend to inherit the specified Function behaviour must include asupercall to the Functionconstructor to create and initialize a subclass instance with the internal slots necessary for built-in function behaviour. All ECMAScript syntactic forms for definingfunction objects create instances of Function. There is no syntactic means to create instances of Function subclasses except for the built-in GeneratorFunction, AsyncFunction, and AsyncGeneratorFunction subclasses.
20.2.1.1 Function ( ...parameterArgs, bodyArg )
The last argument (if any) specifies the body (executable code) of a function; any preceding arguments specify formal parameters.
This function performs the following steps when called:
- Let C be the
active function object . - If bodyArg is not present, set bodyArg to the empty String.
- Return ?
CreateDynamicFunction (C, NewTarget,normal , parameterArgs, bodyArg).
It is permissible but not necessary to have one argument for each formal parameter to be specified. For example, all three of the following expressions produce the same result:

For other argument values, these functions are intended to compute approximations to the results of familiar mathematical functions, but some latitude is allowed in the choice of approximation algorithms. The general intent is that an implementer should be able to use the same mathematical library for ECMAScript on a given hardware platform that is available to C programmers on that platform.

This operation is not the same as casting to binary32 and then to binary16 because of the possibility of double-rounding: consider the number k =
Not all platforms provide native support for casting from binary64 to binary16. There are various libraries which can provide this, including the MIT-licensed half library. Alternatively, it is possible to first cast from binary64 to binary32 under roundTiesToEven and then check whether the result could lead to incorrect double-rounding. The cases which could can be handled explicitly by adjusting the mantissa of the binary32 value so that it is the value which would be produced by performing the initial cast under roundTiesToOdd. Casting the adjusted value to binary16 under roundTiesToEven then produces the correct value.

21.4 Date Objects
21.4.1 Overview of Date Objects and Definitions of Abstract Operations
The following
21.4.1.1 Time Values and Time Range
Time measurement in ECMAScript is analogous to time measurement in POSIX, in particular sharing definition in terms of the proleptic Gregorian calendar, an epoch of midnight at the beginning of 1 January 1970 UTC, and an accounting of every day as comprising exactly 86,400 seconds (each of which is 1000 milliseconds long).
An ECMAScript time value
Time values do not account for UTC leap seconds—there are no time values representing instants within positive leap seconds, and there are time values representing instants removed from the UTC timeline by negative leap seconds. However, the definition of time values nonetheless yields piecewise alignment with UTC, with discontinuities only at leap second boundaries and zero difference outside of leap seconds.
A Number can exactly represent all
The exact moment of midnight at the beginning of 1 January 1970 UTC is represented by the time value
In the proleptic Gregorian calendar, leap years are precisely those which are both divisible by 4 and either divisible by 400 or not divisible by 100.
The 400 year cycle of the proleptic Gregorian calendar contains 97 leap years. This yields an average of 365.2425 days per year, which is 31,556,952,000 milliseconds. Therefore, the maximum range a Number could represent exactly with millisecond precision is approximately -285,426 to 285,426 years relative to 1970. The smaller range supported by a time value as specified in this section is approximately -273,790 to 273,790 years relative to 1970.

21.4.1.19 Time Zone Identifiers
Time zones in ECMAScript are represented by time zone identifiers, which are Strings composed entirely of code units in the
A primary time zone identifier is the preferred identifier for an available named time zone. A non-primary time zone identifier is an identifier for an available named time zone that is not a primary time zone identifier. An available named time zone identifier is either a primary time zone identifier or a non-primary time zone identifier. Each available named time zone identifier is associated with exactly one available named time zone. Each available named time zone is associated with exactly one primary time zone identifier and zero or more non-primary time zone identifiers.
ECMAScript implementations must support an available named time zone with the identifier
Implementations that follow the requirements for time zones as described in the ECMA-402 Internationalization API specification are called time zone aware.
Time zone aware implementations must support available named time zones corresponding to the Zone and Link names of the IANA Time Zone Database, and only such names.
In time zone aware implementations, a primary time zone identifier is a Zone name, and a non-primary time zone identifier is a Link name, respectively, in the IANA Time Zone Database except as specifically overridden by

21.4.1.32 Date Time String Format
ECMAScript defines a string interchange format for date-times based upon a simplification of the ISO 8601 calendar date extended format. The format is as follows: YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm:ss.sssZ
Where the elements are as follows:
YYYY
|
is the year in the proleptic Gregorian calendar as four decimal digits from 0000 to 9999, or as an |
-
|
|
MM
|
is the month of the year as two decimal digits from 01 (January) to 12 (December). |
DD
|
is the day of the month as two decimal digits from 01 to 31. |
T
|
|
HH
|
is the number of complete hours that have passed since midnight as two decimal digits from 00 to 24. |
:
|
|
mm
|
is the number of complete minutes since the start of the hour as two decimal digits from 00 to 59. |
ss
|
is the number of complete seconds since the start of the minute as two decimal digits from 00 to 59. |
.
|
|
sss
|
is the number of complete milliseconds since the start of the second as three decimal digits. |
Z
|
is the UTC offset representation specified as HH:mm (a subset of the |
This format includes date-only forms:
YYYY
YYYY-MM
YYYY-MM-DD
It also includes “date-time” forms that consist of one of the above date-only forms immediately followed by one of the following time forms with an optional UTC offset representation appended:
THH:mm
THH:mm:ss
THH:mm:ss.sss
A string containing out-of-bounds or nonconforming elements is not a valid instance of this format.
As every day both starts and ends with midnight, the two notations 00:00 and 24:00 are available to distinguish the two midnights that can be associated with one date. This means that the following two notations refer to exactly the same point in time: 1995-02-04T24:00 and 1995-02-05T00:00. This interpretation of the latter form as "end of a calendar day" is consistent with ISO 8601, even though that specification reserves it for describing time intervals and does not permit it within representations of single points in time.
There exists no international standard that specifies abbreviations for civil time zones like CET, EST, etc. and sometimes the same abbreviation is even used for two very different time zones. For this reason, both ISO 8601 and this format specify numeric representations of time zone offsets.

ToString (O). - Let sText be
StringToCodePoints (S). - Let lowerText be toLowercase(sText), according to the Unicode Default Case Conversion algorithm.

The result must be derived according to the locale-insensitive case mappings in the Unicode Character Database (this explicitly includes not only the file UnicodeData.txt, but also all locale-insensitive mappings in the file SpecialCasing.txt that accompanies it).
The case mapping of some code points may produce multiple code points. In this case the result String may not be the same length as the source String.

22.2.2 Pattern Semantics
A regular expression pattern is converted into an
A u nor a v. Otherwise, it is a Unicode pattern. A BMP pattern matches against a String interpreted as consisting of a sequence of 16-bit values that are Unicode code points in the range of the Basic Multilingual Plane. A Unicode pattern matches against a String interpreted as consisting of Unicode code points encoded using UTF-16. In the context of describing the behaviour of a BMP pattern “character” means a single 16-bit Unicode BMP code point. In the context of describing the behaviour of a Unicode pattern “character” means a UTF-16 encoded code point (
The syntax and semantics of
For example, consider a pattern expressed in source text as the single non-BMP character U+1D11E (MUSICAL SYMBOL G CLEF). Interpreted as a Unicode pattern, it would be a single element (character)
Patterns are passed to the RegExp
An implementation may not actually perform such translations to or from UTF-16, but the semantics of this specification requires that the result of pattern matching be as if such translations were performed.
22.2.2.1 Notation
The descriptions below use the following internal data structures:
-
A CharSetElement is one of the two following entities:
-
If rer.[[UnicodeSets]] is
false , then a CharSetElement is a character in the sense of the Pattern Semantics above. -
If rer.[[UnicodeSets]] is
true , then a CharSetElement is a sequence whose elements are characters in the sense of the Pattern Semantics above. This includes the empty sequence, sequences of one character, and sequences of more than one character. For convenience, when working with CharSetElements of this kind, an individual character is treated interchangeably with a sequence of one character.
-
If rer.[[UnicodeSets]] is
- A CharSet is a mathematical set of CharSetElements.
-
A CaptureRange is a
Record { [[StartIndex]], [[EndIndex]] } that represents the range of characters included in a capture, where [[StartIndex]] is aninteger representing the start index (inclusive) of the range within Input, and [[EndIndex]] is aninteger representing the end index (exclusive) of the range within Input. For anyCaptureRange , these indices must satisfy the invariant that [[StartIndex]] ≤ [[EndIndex]]. -
A MatchState is a
Record { [[Input]], [[EndIndex]], [[Captures]] } where [[Input]] is aList of characters representing the String being matched, [[EndIndex]] is aninteger , and [[Captures]] is aList of values, one for eachleft-capturing parenthesis in the pattern.MatchStates are used to represent partial match states in the regular expression matching algorithms. The [[EndIndex]] is one plus the index of the last input character matched so far by the pattern, while [[Captures]] holds the results of capturing parentheses. The nth element of [[Captures]] is either aCaptureRange representing the range of characters captured by the nth set of capturing parentheses, orundefined if the nth set of capturing parentheses hasn't been reached yet. Due to backtracking, manyMatchStates may be in use at any time during the matching process. -
A MatcherContinuation is an
Abstract Closure that takes oneMatchState argument and returns either aMatchState orfailure . TheMatcherContinuation attempts to match the remaining portion (specified by the closure's captured values) of the pattern against Input, starting at the intermediate state given by itsMatchState argument. If the match succeeds, theMatcherContinuation returns the finalMatchState that it reached; if the match fails, theMatcherContinuation returnsfailure . -
A Matcher is an
Abstract Closure that takes two arguments—aMatchState and aMatcherContinuation —and returns either aMatchState orfailure . AMatcher attempts to match a middle subpattern (specified by the closure's captured values) of the pattern against theMatchState 's [[Input]], starting at the intermediate state given by itsMatchState argument. TheMatcherContinuation argument should be a closure that matches the rest of the pattern. After matching the subpattern of a pattern to obtain a newMatchState , theMatcher then callsMatcherContinuation on that newMatchState to test if the rest of the pattern can match as well. If it can, theMatcher returns theMatchState returned byMatcherContinuation ; if not, theMatcher may try different choices at its choice points, repeatedly callingMatcherContinuation until it either succeeds or all possibilities have been exhausted.
