Assign variable for javascript value

Question

I'm still a beginner in javascript. I copy this javascript code here

  function memo(pnt){
      var row = pnt.lng().toFixed(5);
      row += ", ";
      row += pnt.lat().toFixed(5);
      row += ", ";
      row += pnt.address;
      row += "\n";
      printOut.value += row;
    }

and turn I want to asign

var lang = pnt.lng().toFixed(5); 

var lat = pnt.lat().toFixed(5);

var add = pnt.address;

the row is incremented.

but I get it wrong. what is the correct arrangement for this?

pnt.lng().toFixed(5) = var lang

This is wrong to start with.

If I've followed your question correctly, you'll want something like:

var lang = pnt.lng().toFixed(5);

to assign the value of pnt.lng().toFixed(5) to lang.

but it is incremented. doesn't that affect the values if I assigned it like ar lang = pnt.lng().toFixed(5);?

The ## var ## keyword simply identifies a new variable. You don't need to have it on re-assigning a variable.
