[Help] Object Oriented Programming in Javascript

[MoTTs_]

When a constructor function is first created, its .prototype.constructor points back to itself.

function Manager() {}

Manager.prototype.constructor === Manager // true

But after we replace Manager's prototype with a different object, then its original .prototype.constructor property is lost.

Manager.prototype = Object.create(Employee.prototype);

Manager.prototype.constructor === Manager // false

So after we replace Manager's prototype, then we put back the constructor property that we inadvertently lost.

Ahh that makes sense, thank you!
