Hi Dina and welcome to StackOverflow. Angular is just JavaScript so the same rules apply there as they would to vanilla JavaScript. Take a few minutes and read [this post](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3127429/how-does-the-this-keyword-work) which should answer this question for you. – Adam H Oct 25 '18 at 20:56

`this` will reference `window` in both cases. – Legends Oct 25 '18 at 23:31

Inside the boo function, this will reference the boo function object, or "window" if you will. This is similar to the stacking of scopes in python, if you're familiar with that.
