Illegal Invocation error when console.log passed in a function

Question

I am bit confused over this. Please find the code as below.

var o={
 printToConsole: function(f){
   f(1);
}
};

o.printToConsole(console.log);

Answer 1

Change

o.printToConsole(console.log);

to

o.printToConsole(console.log.bind(console));

or

o.printToConsole(function(){ console.log.apply(console.log, arguments) });

The console.log function only works when the receiver (this) is the console (in fact, it's browser dependent).
