How do undefined or remove a javascript function?

Question

I defined a global Javascript function:

  function resizeDashBoardGridTable(gridID){
  var table = document.getElementById(\'treegrid_\'+gridID);
        .....

If the functions needs to be called 1 time you use an anonymous self invoking function like this:

(function test(){
    console.log('yay i'm anonymous');
})();

If you have to call the function multiple times you store it into a var and set it to null when you're done.

Note: You don't have to name an anonymous function like I named it test. You can also use it like this:

(function(){
    console.log('test');
})();

The reason I do name my anonymous functions is for extra readability.
