Js Equivalent of Ruby send method

Do you remember we talked about ruby’s send method here. It is used to call a ruby function from string having same value as function name.

There is js equivalent of the same:

// defining the function
var apple = function(){
	console.log('apple');
}

eval('apple()') // => apple
