Question
*All questions are based on the original loan.html source code provided by the instructor.
Question 2: Is this client-side JavaScript or server-side JavaScript code?
Question 3: How many programmer defined functions are there in this program? Please list their names. If it’s an anonymous function write the function definition.
Question 4: Do you spy any predefined global objects used in this program? List as many as you know.
Question 5: Do you spy any HTML event registered? If so what type event it is and who is the event handler?

This is an HTML table with <input> elements that allow the user to enter data
and <span> elements in which the program can display its results.
These elements have ids like "interest" and "years". These ids are used
in the JavaScript code that follows the table. Note that some of the input
elements define "onchange" or "onclick" event handlers. These specify strings
of JavaScript code to be executed when the user enters data or clicks.

Explanation / Answer
Answer 2 - The given javascript is client-side javascript , because it can be access without server on client desktop.
Answer 5 - THere are 3 event handler in the given code these are :
onclick : The event occur when the user click on an element.
onchange : The event occur when the content or state changes in a form element .
onload : The onload event occur when an object has been loaded .
Answer 4 - isfinite() :- finds that given value is finite or not.
parsefloat() :- It parse a string and returns a floating point number.
Answer 3- User Defined functions in the given code are as follows :
1, Function calculate() - in this function the calculation for loan is doone.
2 , Function chart() - In this function the chart according to the inserted data is formed
3. Function save() - In this function the inserted data is saved .
4. Function paymentToX() - function created to calculate payment
5. Function amountToY() - function created to calculate the amount .
