    A callback function is a function passed into another function as a parameter that runs after the outer function completes. For example, a function called getdata sums two numbers and passes the result to a callback function showdata that displays "Hello world". Another example prompts the user for their name, passes it to a callback function getdata that alerts "Hello" followed by the name. Callback functions allow asynchronous code execution where one function waits for another to finish before running.

    Callback function:

    ★ A callback function can be defined as a function passed into


    another function as a parameter.
    ★ Don't relate the callback with the keyword, as the callback is just
    a name of an argument that is passed to a function.
    ★ In other words, we can say that a function passed to another
    function as an argument is referred to as a callback function.
    ★ The callback function runs after the completion of the outer
    function.

    Example:

    <!DOCTYPE html>
    <html lang="en">
    <head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8">
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width,
    initial-scale=1.0">
    <title>Document</title>
    </head>
    <body>
    <script>
    function getdata(x,y,callback){
    console.log(x+y+"<br>");
    callback();
    }
    function showdata(){
    document.write("Hello world");
    }
    getdata(10,20,showdata);
    </script>
    </body>
    </html>

    Another Example:

    <!DOCTYPE html>
    <html lang="en">
    <head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8">
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width,
    initial-scale=1.0">
    <title>Document</title>
    </head>
    <body>
    <script>
    function getdata(name){
    alert("Hello "+name);
    }
    function showdata(callback){
    let name = prompt("Welcome :) What is your name?");
    callback(name);
    }
    showdata(getdata);
    </script>
    </body>
    </html>
