<li>] using bracket notation to calculate object properties&nbsp; person.age, person.[dateYear-birthYear]&nbsp;</li>
<li>] You just need to know that string, number, and boolean values differ from objects in that their properties are read-only and that you can&rsquo;t define new properties on them. - Flanagan - Definitive Guide</li>
