because of hoisting in pre-ES6 syntax. it is like var fusionate; // declare first code snippets such as setInterval fusionate = function() {...} // initiations this can cause bugs which are hard to debug, so in ES6 we have const keyword which cannot be hoisted https://code.sololearn.com/W7Qp4YH4XHjJ/?ref=app https://code.sololearn.com/WldMKAVDQWPQ/?ref=app
