docs(10_Wiki): Dev 폴더 누락분 반영 — Topic_Programming으로 통합

이전 재구성 작업에서 Dev/ 폴더가 누락되었던 것을 반영.

- Dev/Topic_Programming(중첩 폴더, 78개)은 Dev 자체 최상위 폴더들
  (Architecture/Conventions/Engineering_Intelligence 등)과 완전 중복이라 제거.
- Dev 최상위 엔지니어링 지식 폴더(Architecture/Conventions/Engineering_Intelligence/
  Failure_Library/Generalized_Principles/Language/Pattern_Catalog/Platform_Guides/
  Subsystems, 77개)는 이미 Topic_Programming/Topic_Programming에 더 최신 버전이
  존재해 중복 제거(고유 콘텐츠 1개는 예외 처리하여 이동 보존).
- Dev의 W3Schools 언어 튜토리얼 폴더(Topic_C/CPP/CSS/CSharp/HOWTO/HTML/Java/
  JavaScript/PHP/Python/SQL/W3CSS, 1201개)는 전부 Topic_Programming 하위로 이동.
- 에이전트 운영 상태(.astra/docs)는 그대로 유지, 콘텐츠 폴더만 정리.
- Topic_Programming 최종 문서 수: 2784 → 3985.

# [[JavaScript Function Invocation]]
## 🎯 한 줄 통찰 (One-line insight)
The code inside a function does not run when the function is defined — it runs when something *invokes* it, and the `()` operator is what invokes a function. [S1]
## 🧠 핵심 개념 (Core concepts)
- **Definition vs invocation** — code inside a function is NOT executed when the function is defined; it executes when "something" invokes the function. [S1]
- **Invoke vs call** — the term "invoke" is common because a function can be invoked without being called directly. [S1]
- **The `()` operator invokes a function** — appending parentheses to a function name runs it. [S1]
- **Calling vs referencing** — `sayHello` refers to the function itself (and returns the function); `sayHello()` refers to the function result (and returns the result). [S1]
- **Store the returned value** — when a function returns a value you can store it in a variable. [S1]
## 🧩 추출된 패턴 (Extracted patterns)
- **Invoke with `()`** — `sayHello()` runs the body and yields its return value; omitting `()` yields the function object instead. [S1]
- **Capture the result** — `let greeting = sayHello();` keeps the returned value for reuse. [S1]
- **Invoke on an event** — wire a function to a UI event (e.g. `onclick="showHello()"`) so it runs on interaction. [S1]
## 📖 세부 내용 (Details)
**Calling a Function** — a defined function: [S1]
```javascript
function sayHello() {
return "Hello World";
}
```
The code inside a function is **NOT executed** when the function is **defined**. The code inside a function **will execute** when "something" **invokes** the function. It is common to use the term **invoke**, because a function can be invoked without being called. [S1]
Invoke the function with `()`: [S1]
```javascript
function sayHello() {
return "Hello World";
}
sayHello();
```
**Using the Returned Value** — when a function returns a value, you can store the value in a variable: [S1]
```javascript
function sayHello() {
return "Hello World";
}
let greeting = sayHello();
```
Log the result: [S1]
```javascript
function sayHello() {
return "Hello World";
}
console.log(sayHello());
```
**Displaying the Result** — invoke a function and write its result into the page: [S1]
```javascript
<p id="demo"></p>
<script>
function sayHello() {
return "Hello World";
}
document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML = sayHello();
</script>
```
**Calling a Function Many Times** — the same function can be invoked repeatedly: [S1]
```javascript
function sayHello() {
return "Hello World";
}
let a = sayHello();
let b = sayHello();
let c = sayHello();
```
A converting function invoked with an argument: [S1]
```javascript
// Convert Fahrenheit to Celsius:
function toCelsius(fahrenheit) {
return (5/9) * (fahrenheit-32);
}
// Call the toCelcius() function
let value = toCelsius(77);
```
**Calling vs Referencing a Function**`() ` invokes; without it you get the function itself: [S1]
```javascript
function toCelsius(fahrenheit) {
return (5/9) * (fahrenheit-32);
}
let value = toCelsius;
```
```javascript
function sayHello() {
return "Hello World";
}
let text = sayHello;
```
This is an important difference: `sayHello` refers to the **function itself** (it returns the function); `sayHello()` refers to the **function result** (it returns the result). The `()` operator invokes a function. [S1]
**Functions Can Be Called from Anywhere** — define one function and invoke it from another (e.g. on a button click): [S1]
```javascript
function sayHello() {
return "Hello World";
}
function showHello() {
document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML = sayHello();
}
```
```javascript
<p id="demo"></p>
<button onclick="showHello()">Click Me</button>
<script>
function sayHello() {
return "Hello World";
}
function showHello() {
document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML = sayHello();
}
</script>
```
**Common Mistakes** — [S1]
- **Forgetting Parentheses `()`** — `sayHello` does not run the function; you must use `sayHello()`.
- **Expecting Return** — some functions do not return a value.
- **Expecting Output** — if a function returns a value, you must display it to see it.
## 🛠️ 적용 사례 (Applied in summary)
The page's own snippets are the canonical applied examples — invoking `sayHello()`, capturing its return, logging it, writing it to `#demo`, calling it many times, and triggering `showHello()` from a button. No external project/commit applications found in the source.
## 💻 코드 패턴 (Code patterns)
Invoke and capture the result (language: JavaScript):
```javascript
let greeting = sayHello();
```
Reference vs invoke:
```javascript
let text = sayHello; // the function itself
let result = sayHello(); // the function's result
```
Invoke on a UI event:
```javascript
function showHello() {
document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML = sayHello();
}
```
