//this and a prototype
function Person(){
    var firstName = "Chales";
    var lastName = "Woodson";
    
    //private within Person object
    function getFullName(){
        return firstName + ' ' + lastName;       
    };
    
    //public function that returns the firstName and lastName
    this.sayHello = function(){
        return getFullName() + " says hi";
    }
};

//this will throw an error since it tries to access a property in the this scope which isn't defined without using new
//console.log(Person.sayHello());

var newPerson = new Person();
console.log(newPerson.sayHello());
