Can I name a JavaScript function and execute it immediately?

Question

I have quite a few of these:

function addEventsAndStuff() {
  // bla bla
}
addEventsAndStuff();

function sendStuffToServer() {
  // send stuff
  // get HTML         


        

Answer 1

There is a good shorthand to this (not needing to declare any variables bar the assignment of the function):

var func = (function f(a) { console.log(a); return f; })('Blammo')
