function foo() {
    let b = 1;
    function inner() {
        return b;
    }
    return inner;
}
let get_func_inner = foo();

10. What is the difference between innerHTML & innerText? 

The innerText property sets or returns the text content as plain text of the specified node, and all its descendants whereas the innerHTML property sets or returns the plain text or HTML contents in the elements. Unlike innerText, inner HTML lets you work with HTML rich text and doesn’t automatically encode and decode text.

11. What is an event bubbling in JavaScript?

Consider a situation an element is present inside another element and both of them handle an event. When an event occurs in bubbling, the innermost element handles the event first, then the outer, and so on.

let X = { geeks: 1 };
let Output = (function () {
    delete X.geeks;
    return X.geeks;
})();
  
console.log(output);

Here the delete will delete the property of the object. X is the object with the geek’s property and it is a self-invoking function that will delete the geek’s property from object X so the result will be undefined.
