Comment on it
In javascrit,if you re-declare a variable, it wouldn't lose it value.

Example ->
```
var a=10;
var a;
alert(a);
```
Output : 5

Here you can see, in JavaScript the output will be same but in other languages result would be undefined or NaN.

Advantage :
Re-declaring a variable is useful in those situation where it is not known ,if the variable has already been defined.

Hello Sir , If the variable is declared in a global scope and then re-declared in a function then its scope remains in that function only and global variable doesn't effect from this .
