var anonymousFunction= function() {};
anonymousFunction(function () {
window.didExecute = true;
});
Doesn't work. It says parentheses are lacking.

<script>
var anonymousFunction= function() {};
(function () {
window.didExecute = true;
})(); // <--------- add these parenthesis
</script>

Courses Plus Student 39,959 PointsTo make the anonymous function to be executed, you just need to add the parenthesis at the end of the function.
<script>
var anonymousFunction= function() {};
anonymousFunction(function () {
window.didExecute = true;
})(); // <--------- add these parenthesis
</script>
